I Bought a BMW R NineT Scrambler and it's GLORIOUS!

- For me, it was love at first sight with the BMW R9T Scrambler. After a year of searching, I finally found THE ONE. So in today's video, I introduce a new bike/build to the channel to get back to my roots. I've missed making motorcycle content!
From JDM car fanboy to european motorcycle enthusiast, I do it all! Needless to say, my taste in motorcycles is much different than my taste in cars. The look and quality of european bikes has always won me over, and this bike is no exception. I've been on the lookout for a BMW R Nine T Scrambler for well over a year and finally found the one to buy. I first saw this particular bike in the Mission Impossible Fallout Movie and then once again when I traveled to the BMW HQ in Munich. I fell in love with the styling, the sound, and overall quality.
I bring you guys along for my quick buying experience, the windy ride home, and my initial review of the bike. It IS everything I hoped it would be and I'm racking up as many miles as I can. The Civic content isn't going anywhere, but I do want to start making more motorcycle content in between! I have some awesome plans for this bike and hopefully I can convert many of my JDM subs to enjoy the euro bikes as well haha. Like all my toys, it'll get an alldayanthony makeover to really make it mine. In some upcoming videos, I'm planning a baffle delete, mirror change, LED tail tidy, engine guards, skid plate, and the list goes on. Now I just need to fix the hole in my wallet.
Thanks for watching!

ok that is the most gorgeous bike I have ever seen
Thanks dude! It’ll get prettier after a few more mods!
try looking up ducati diavels…gonna blow your mind
@@ALLDAYANTHONY needs a tail tidy
@@ALLDAYANTHONY lovely bike man! Looking at this one to replace my old Honda that got pretty banged up from EU > India. But the shaft drive was a life saver under those conditions. Think this BMW would also be very capable of such a trip. Very interested to see your mods :D
Hell look at the /5 version
What a gorgeous bike. One of these you will still see on the roads in 50 years from now.
The R-Nine-T's are great bikes but if you don’t plan to take it off road maybe switch out the nobly tires for ADV tires (they are a mix between off road and street). They will last waaaay longer, have more grip in the corners and ride more comfortable.
I find it hard to believe that 1/2 of everyone doesn’t like it. The R9T is an amazing bike. Glad you have the taste to appreciate it.
50% of people don’t have good taste. This bike is gorgeous. Like a finely crafted premium watch
Thanks man. It feels that way too!
50% portuguese? That's nice to know/hear! Greetings from Portugal man! Keep up with your great content! ✌️👍
Juro
It's definitely one of the best looking bikes. It's gorgeous. Yes loved it in MI Fallout
always liked the R nine T as well. plus less maintenance with the shaft drive :D just gas up and go. No adjusting and lubing chains.
Have never ridden a shaft-drive bike before, does it feel any different than chain-driven ones?
@@alienvseditor earlier versions of the bmw shaft drives would pull to a certain side while excelerating, but they have since fixed that issue.
Less maintenance but more work. Remove tank just to access air filter or battery, isn't that annoying
@CF S1kR yeah that is annoying
@@JoeGo101 other than that how is maintenance
I ride an old BMW (see avatar)
The R9T might just have to be my next bike.
I live in Southeast Texas and people who’ve never ridden or driven out west, especially that far north, just can’t comprehend the wind y’all live with.
I love it up there, the scenery is stunning, but I’m always happy to return to my insanely hot, swampy, and mosquito infested lowland home.
That tilting you’re talking about is called torque steer and it’s common to all boxers.
Do it! I think you’ll love it. And yes, the winds can be crazy here
Yep, that is one beautiful machine. Love the Pure but I think the Scrambler is a head-turner and more purposeful looking. Congratulations, man ✌🏽
In reality no one gives a crap about what bike you are riding unless you are loud AF
It funny thought that is a total failure at off road.
Guess it look off-road.
This bike is a joke.
@@Baldhills If you want to go off-roading all out, there's the urban GS variant. That should fulfil your expectations. Also a Scrambler was never meant to do serious off-roading, just mild gravel bits and all. Funny that you got it all wrong.
i love you even more now that i know we have the same taste in bikes. i love scramblers and cafe racers. beautiful bike, and i love the content dude. keep it up.
From a 100% Portuguese, to a 50% Portuguese, I have to congratulate you on your spectacular good taste in motorcycles (I'm also hunting a R nine t)!
Super beautiful! The engine is the old air cooled boxter one and the philosophy of the r9t is ment to be raw, pure and retro. Just a beauty! Greetings and safe ridings from south Germany! 😉
It’s exactly what it is! Raw! Thanks for watching!
Boxer not boxter. Wasserboxer.
Cool bike man! 100% Portuguese and 100% riding an r nine t scrambler here as well. Enjoy in good health!
Hell yeah!
I had a chance to rent R NineT for a day, but I loved it so much that I extended the rent for additional 3 days. 🥰😍.. It is such a nice bike with enough torq at the low to mid rpm and very little engine braking compared to other bikes I have been riding. I am currently riding 2017 Suzuki GSX S750, but if I am adding a bike, R nineT will be one of top choices along with BMW S1000R!! 😁😋
Not a bike guy at all, so this is the first time I've ever heard of putting a boxer on a bike. That's such an awesome idea, I love it.
bmw did it for years
Since what 1923?
@@deadlyapollo Not into bikes, never had a reason to look into them lol
Got my bike license because my dad rides, but bikes are scary as hell so I stuck with cars.
I've got mine as new the week it arrived in Sweden back in 2016. I rode over it over 500 km the first month, that was in November. Now its soon past 40.000 km. This is the first bike that have not made any changes to the exhust. It gets a little louder as miles passes by, but not by much.
Thanx for the view👍
Has it been reliable for 40,000KM?
@@Spartansrule118 yes, engine has not missed one beat. The only thing have had to change is the battery. It could not deliver enuf current at start.
Wish I had bought wire wheels and I would like a better front suspension.
My son 23yrs old just bought the pure last wkend. He loves it
Awesome! The pures are beautiful as well
@@ALLDAYANTHONY AWESOME video. Looking forward for the next few
I sympathize with your difficulty in riding past trucks in a high wind. In 1990 I bought one of the first ZX-11s in the Denver area. It was the first model to have a ram air intake system, and I found that passing a truck with a strong cross wind from the right could lead to a low pressure at the air inlet that practically took the engine back to idle. Result was that it would pull even with the front of the truck, fall back, and repeat. Also, I rode it home from the dealers in a cold rain, and had to stop several times to let the ice thaw from the throats of the carbs. It was fine after it warmed up in my garage.
Dude I totally feel you when picking up a new bike thinking 30minutes on the highway isn’t long at all and you buy it and the drive home sucks and feels like an eternity.
One more thing, mine also has the optional wire spoked wheels but with Metzeler street tires. Reviews I have seen say that if your riding is street biased, like mine is, they're a much better option than the semi-knobbies.
Nice! Those are gorgeous, love naked bikes.Everything you said about them is the same reason why I like them as well. I had a Street Triple, a 919, Monster and loved them all.
Naked bikes are the best bikes IMO!
it's not a bike, it's an art piece.
Its absolutely stunning, one of if not thee best looking bike I've ever seen. Just drop dead gorgeous. Everything about it is just so beatiful. Just wished it had a bit more performance.
It honestly has the perfect amount of power. No complaints in that area
I purchased the R nineT pure and I love it, to me she is a beauty.
Definitely beautiful 👍🏻👍🏻
I love this bike. I literally watched mission impossible as well lol. I currently have a Ducati scrambler and want to upgrade to this.
Nice bike. It just gets better with age. Welcome to the R Nine T club. 2020 Pure here.
Thanks! Glad to be a part of it!
that is the most beautiful moving vehicle I have ever seen no questions asked
i dont even know why i love this classic Beauty 😂❤️
Great review on your bike congratulations I have a 21 standard with 3000 miles I bought it with 8 miles on it I’ll be glad to put more I know you’re gonna love your new purchase keep it upright
Congrats! I got my '17 Scrambler(with 300 miles) 18 months ago and it's the most fun bike I've had in almost 50 years of riding. I've added the BMW tachometer and a small luggage rack (just for looks). The tachometer is a worthwhile addition for all the info it gives you. You will love this bike.
I have a '17 scrambler as well and will never get rid of it. What kind of tach and luggage rack did you get?
@@alishalchi1260 The rack is from Rizoma and the tachometer is from BMW. The bike is pre-wired for the tach, but you'll need to get the proper bracket to hold both the speedometer and tachometer. Since it's from BMW, the whole thing looks stock from the factory.
@@daviddixon2119 get out! I had no idea I could get one from BMW. Does it have a fuel gauge? I still think a tachometer and fuel gauge should've came stock originally. I recently saw cruise control on the newer models 🙄
@@alishalchi1260 Yeah, cruise control was added cause the new ones are ride by wire. The info window on the tach gives you: gear indicator, voltage, current mpg, average mpg, date, but no gas gauge. There may be something else that I can't think of right now. It's switchable from the button on the left grip. I wanted it for the tach as well as the gear indicator. Pretty pricey but it's definitely a diy project so save the BMW shop labor $$$.
@@alishalchi1260 it has a low fuel warning light. Not a true gas gauge but neither did the bikes that it’s modeled after.
Enjoy the new ride man! Spoke to you awhile back about riding my 2020 KTM SDR 1290.. we need to meet up one of these days now that riding season is upon us!
Yep! I need to take that for a spin soon!
Lovely bike man! I'm thinking of buying one myself, greetings from Italy
Já te sigo à muito tempo e só agora vi que tinhas uma costela portuguesa. Grande abraço de Portugal. Continua com os vídeos que tens feito.
Exatamente o que eu ia dizer ahaha
Brasil aqui.
Ja ganhaste mais um seguidor só pelos teus 50% Tuga, grande abraço.
Haha. Pensei o mesmo. Tambem tenho ma r nine t scrambler
Grande abraço aos tugas pelo mundo 🇵🇹. Vídeo incríveis.
Great choice. Get an sc project for ultimate deep brap. Good thing is unlike most people think about bmws, their boxer motors are reliable, same one thats used in previous GS models that do cross country.
They are supposed to be extremely reliable! “Knock on wood” haha. I’m still up in the air on with exhaust I want
@@ALLDAYANTHONY Ive got an sc project and let me tell you, without headers or cat delete, its pretty loud. The shorty one is even louder, good loud though. These bikes are pretty loud with just a slip on so id try and hear one in person, videos dont register the sounds this motor makes well.
speed triple + NineT you have a great taste for motorcycle, ride a lot in those beautiful machines
Thanks man!
The flapper thing controls the back pressure at lower RPM which helps develop torque.
Damn, that thing is beautiful! At certain angles it reminds of some old WW2 bikes.
Thanks! I think so too
it's a retro/classic look, really love this kind of design especially when you do customize everything. btw what happened, you haven't upload anything about this bike
I’ve wondered the same thing. It’s as if this bike disappeared
Ha! My wife and I were in Munich a few years ago and visited the BMW museum and I sat on the bike and fell in love with it. likely the same bike, too funny.
Haha I’m guessing you sat on the one they had displayed outside!
@@ALLDAYANTHONY It was winter when I went, they had it indoors.
This one of the best looking bikes at any price in my opinion. I have sat on one, but it does not look very comfortable for a ride that goes over an hour.
The scrambler looks great from both sides - something i cannot say for the other r ninet models. I have similar bike but of Italian extraction and it is great. Debating whether to trade in for bmw scrambler or triumph speed twin.
Any update??
Me too! I love brown leather jacket bikes! No costume required.
Indeed the gorgeous bike and it's my dream bike too😍😍😍
Super jealous. I love scramblers.
Thanks man!
That’s a nice looking bike and what a score. A 2017 with 500miles, congrats!
Thanks! I think so too!
MI movie would also be the reason I would get this bike. Heck, I think that movie is what started it for me. I never had interest in motorcycles until I saw the scrambler in that movie.
Just picked up a 2015 R Nine T with 2190 miles on it. Ordered a tail tidy and plan on removing the pillion seat and subframe. Can’t wait to see what you do to yours.
That is my dream motorcycle, congratulations 👍
PINNACLE OF BEAUTY. Simply stunning
Thank you! I think so tooN
I don’t know if I’m more impressed by the bike or the fact that the evo is out of the garage.
The Evo is just on the other side lol
Great bike! I have a 2017 as well, and I definitely want to see the video for removing the baffles.
You know how you feel now about the bike...that feeling never leaves you! It’s that good!
That bike looks AMAZING! SO COOL
beautiful bike! I have an r ninet pure and I love it. I really like the look of the scrambler! Those knobby tires look badass
Hey Anthony! Are you making more content on your BMW scrambler?? Such a beautiful bike deserves to be more on your channel!
Hi Emil! I’m planning on it, it’s just been too damn hot to ride outside. Waiting for some cooler weather soon
Anthony,you are very Lucky, congrats. I love RnineT 100 years edition. Ride safe.
i love the raised front bottom. looks like a monster bike. legit awesome
That bike is GOEREGOUS wow wow wow!
Channel is really popin' off!
What? An ALLDAYANTHONY upload without a Civic? 😂 Gorgeous motorcycle 😎
I’ve made you all suffer through too much civic content for too long! Needed some variety
@@ALLDAYANTHONY i totally get it but i guess i can say the suffering hurt so good
Those huge trucks coming down the opposite direction throw some serious wind at you too.
Nice. I hear that there is a new bike coming. To be based on the HP2 Enduro. Can’t wait to see it.
That would be sweet!
Absolutely love the R Nine T, but because of that wind and storage issue, I went with a Road Glide a while back. Would love one as a secondary bike for sure..
They are a great second bike!
I've got the same bike, looking forward to the exhaust upgrade video
You have good taste! Hoping I can get some better sound!
Beautiful. I could see myself getting something like this. Didn't know BMW made bikes like this. I thought they only had the touring style mc's.
I've got an Aprilia Tuono 1100, and I just sold my ZX14R SE, but this bike is pretty. I love the boxer engine sound, and I can never use the power that the bikes I own on the street anyways. Interesting. I probably wouldn't want the knobbies though.
whoa , thats a kickass ride my friend
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
Be careful when riding on wet roads with those tires , as they are getting old with less traction due to hardness of the rubber.
Brembo and Ohlins, you can't go wrong
Still today the coolest of them all !
Love it! I've been looking REALLY hard at the R18... I've never owned a boxer and have always wanted one. I too am a Boise guy! Got a local sub!
R NINE T SCRAMBLER is my dream bike !!!!!!
looking forward to picking this one up
Funny thing is, Tom Cruise did ride a Triumph Speed Triple in MI:2 and a BMW rNineT in MI:6. You have both bikes in your garage now! (Edit: the Speed Triple in MI:2 had the 955i engine though.)
I get the attraction. A couple of yrs ago an '18 urban GS followed me home.
Planning on grabbing a 2021 rninet. Wanted a triumph I seen last month but saw this beast in stock and I'm set on this
7:20 "What is it?"
...
It's a scrambler. LOL what's so hard for them to understand?
Congrats on the awesome pick-up!
Haha that’s pretty much how it is though! I try my best to educate them
A stunningly beautiful and effective machine, congrats
Couldn’t agree more thank you
Absolutely beautiful bike, best of luck with it.
Saw the 1050 too 😫 got good taste in bikes
What's it like riding the knobby tires? Have you taken it down dirt roads?
Nice to know where you are from😌
Love from Portugal!🇵🇹
Btw can you speak portuguese?
I love pasteis de nata 😋
Nice video!! I've got the 2019.. Akra ti headers, Bren tune and tail tidy really finished the bike off for me
And it has shaft drive, no chains to adjust or oil. I had an R80GS Paris Dakar with a 32 litre tank.
Beautiful bike and Evo, man I miss my evo!
I knew you sounded familiar... cheers from a 100% portuguese 😀 🇵🇹 great video... I'm actually considering selling my honda and get one of these
Haha! Keep the honda!
@ALLDAYANTHONY i thought you liked the BMW.... not good?
Sweet bike!! The windy part had me dying 🤣
I’d buy one of those so I could park it next to my triumph scrambler 1200xc.
If I could only figure out a way to ride them both at the same time.
Gorgeous bike Anthony!! 🤩
Beautiful bike! I'm looking to pick up a Ninja 400 here in a week's time so I can start learning how to ride and really get into riding. Looking forward to more motovlogs!
Great starter bikes! Enough power to grow into!
I'VE ALWAYS LIKE AND APPRECIATE BIKE EVEN THOUGH I COULD NEVER OWN TO RIDE ONE CAUSE HERE IN CALIFORNIA THE DRIVERS ARE STUP!D KRAZY DRIVERS PLUS BIKES DON'T HAVE ANY KIND OF PROTECTION AROUND YOU TO SHIELD YOUR PROTECTION ON IMPACT BUT OVER ALL GREAT AMAZING B.M.W. BIKE I THINK I WOULD ONLY CHANGE THAT SEAT COVER INTO A BLACK LEATHER INSTEAD BUT OVER ALL CONGRATULATIONS ON THE NEW TOY THANKS ANTHONY ✌🏼OUT
Looking forward and great buy 👍🏻
Just Stunning
Thank you!
Looks great, sounds great, tubeless spoked wheels, classic looks...I just wish they put proper suspensions on it. Had an R9T UGS and the suspensions were the weakest point. Oh and watch your oil level mine took about 1L per 10000km. Dealer said under 4L per 10000km is normal..
Same here. I think I’ll do some sort of upgrade down the road but in the meantime I’m still happy with it
Congrats! You could add a Rev Counter to that beauty 😉. Enjoy it, peace!
Great taste
Is my dream bike to
My problem is am 1.93 think is to small for me
All best new bike Pedro
"I saw Tom Cruise riding this bike looking like a badass and I fell in love with it."
Me too bro, me too
what's the black bike at 1:00?
Gorgeous. A perfect bike!
