The BMW R850R, launched in 1999, was a significant milestone in the evolution of the Bavarian manufacturer's roadster offerings. Sitting comfortably between the smaller R1100R and the more powerful R1100S, the R850R carved its own niche in the market with its approachable performance and balanced design. This middleweight roadster was powered by the iconic air-cooled, boxer twin engine displacing 850cc, producing a healthy 77 horsepower and 68 Nm of torque. While sharing the same engine with the R850GS adventure bike, the R850R adopted a sportier chassis, featuring a telescopic fork and single-sided swingarm, allowing for sharper handling and more spirited riding. The R850R boasted a distinctly modern aesthetic for its time, with a sleek profile, angular bodywork, and a low-slung, sporty riding position. The design was aimed at a rider seeking a machine that could comfortably handle daily commutes, weekend trips, and even tackle some spirited backroad riding. It offered a comfortable riding experience, thanks to a plush seat, generous legroom, and well-positioned handlebars. The R850R was a true testament to BMW's engineering prowess, offering a compelling blend of performance, practicality, and timeless styling. It cemented its place as a popular choice among riders seeking a versatile and engaging motorcycle, and its legacy continues to inspire a new generation of riders today.
