Bidding stood at $5,000 with five days left on the clock.
The R nineT arrived as BMW’s retro-styled roadster, a stripped-down machine that traded fairings and electronics packages for exposed hardware and a customizable frame. This example wears Black Storm Metallic paint with silver accents, and it carries a black solo saddle and matching tail cowl rather than a passenger seat.
At the center of the bike is the familiar boxer twin, a 1,170cc opposed-twin cooled by air and oil and fitted with an oil cooler, electronic fuel injection and four valves per cylinder. BMW rated the engine at 110 horsepower and 88 pound-feet of torque. Exhaust gases exit through a dual-outlet system capped with Akrapovic mufflers. A six-speed transmission and an enclosed driveshaft send power to the rear wheel.
The chassis reflects the model’s premium underpinnings. Suspension consists of a 46mm inverted fork up front and a preload- and rebound-adjustable monoshock working with BMW’s Paralever single-sided swingarm. A steering damper is fitted. Braking hardware includes dual Brembo calipers clamping floating 320mm rotors at the front and a single caliper on a 265mm rotor at the rear, with anti-lock braking across all three discs.
Wire-spoke 17-inch wheels were fitted with Michelin Road 6 tires and new inner tubes in July 2024. The same visit brought replacement metal quick-disconnect fittings for the fuel hoses, and the invoice documenting the work is included in the sale.
Other equipment includes a 4.8-gallon fuel tank, aftermarket bar-end mirrors on the aluminum handlebar, a rear fender eliminator kit with an LED-strip taillight and a side stand. Instrumentation is straightforward: a 150-mph speedometer, a 10,000-rpm tachometer and a digital display.
The sale includes factory literature, two keys, the components removed during the bike’s modifications and a clean Florida title.
