The BMW R nineT is loved by many mostly because of its styling and nod to the brand's rich heritage. On paper, the bike is remarkably simple, and quite frankly, makes use of technology which at this point is already decades old. Perhaps this also adds to its charm and appeal. What certainly does add to the bike's appeal is when BMW release limited editions of the bike, and in December, 2022, this is exactly what it did.
Unveiled in the global market in December, 2022, the BMW R nineT 100 Years edition was launched to celebrate, you guessed it, the centennial of the iconic German motorcycle manufacturer. BMW stated that only 1,923—a nod to the brand's founding year—of the R nineT 100 Years edition motorbikes will ever see the light of day. In reality, this isn't such a big number, especially considering the sheer volume of R nineTs sold all across the globe, every single day. Now, if there's something that appeals to retro enthusiasts, it's rarity and exclusivity.
