No other surface is as closely linked to the custom cruiser scene as chrome is. The new Premium Style “Blacked Out” offers you an attractive, dark chrome finish for your bike, giving it a more dynamic look. The black highlights will meet even the highest standards for individuality and modernity. The style includes many different components in dark chrome – from the exhaust system, to pushrod tubes, right up to the trim panel components with this refined finish.
A puristic cruiser with a wealth of highlights
The R 18 is our puristic cruiser with soul. The fact that this bike is timeless and modern can be seen in the design elements, ergonomics, and equipment. The ergonomic single seat bench allows you to cruise in comfort. With the large, 18” rear wheel, this bike brings both style and dynamism to the streets. Its premium qualities are further enhanced with the Blacked Out surface finish.
The single seat bench with a modern and aesthetic design, which offers excellent comfort.
Style-defining element: The exhaust system in Blacked Out dark chrome.
Even the pushrod tubes will turn heads with the high-class Blacked Out finish.
The 18” rear wheel provides a dynamic aesthetic. The size of the wheel means that the chassis is slightly elevated, giving you a bit more freedom in your lean angles.
The open, nickel-plated Cardan shaft puts the focus on the torque.
The modern design is emphasized by the “Rough Look” styling. For example, the fixed fork tubes are exposed, without the conventional fork tubes.
