About the BMW Motorrad F 900 R

Overview

The BMW Motorrad F 900 R is a superbike from BMW Motorrad. It has been discontinued (production ended around 2024). Mechiee still services it at your doorstep. Superbikes are the fastest, most powerful road-going sports bikes. With a 895 cc engine it sits in the big-bike, 800 cc-plus class.

Engine and performance

Power comes from a 895 cc twin-cylinder liquid-cooled fuel-injected engine that makes 104.6 PS at 8,500 rpm and 92 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. Its bore is wider than its stroke (86 mm x 77 mm), a short-stroke layout that generally favours higher revs. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 496 PS per tonne; by that measure, its performance is at superbike level and rewards an experienced rider. The claimed top speed is 200 km/h. It has electric start.

Gearbox

It has a 6-speed manual gearbox, and a chain carries drive to the rear wheel. It uses a wet multi-plate clutch.

Chassis, brakes and tyres

Its frame is Bridge-type frame, steel shell construction. At the front, the suspension is Upside-down telescopic fork, Ø 43 mm. At the rear, it is cast aluminium dual swing arm, central spring strut, spring pre-load hydraulically adjustable, rebound damping adjustable. Braking is by twin 320 mm discs at the front and a 265 mm disc at the rear, with dual-channel ABS. ABS on both wheels keeps either tyre from locking under hard braking. It rides on 17-inch cast aluminium wheels with tubeless tyres — 120/70-ZR-17 at the front and 180/55-ZR-17 at the rear.

Size, comfort and range

The seat is 815 mm off the ground, which is about average and suits most riders. It weighs 211 kg ready to ride, which is on the heavy side, so moving it by hand takes some effort. Ground clearance is 180 mm — enough for most speed breakers. It is 2,140 mm long, with 1,518 mm between the axles. It carries 13 L of fuel.

Features and equipment

Equipment includes a digital instrument console, an LED headlamp and USB charging port. Safety equipment includes low fuel indicator.

Owning one

The manufacturer's warranty is 3 years/Unlimited kms. For the BMW Motorrad F 900 R, Mechiee offers a fixed ₹11,999 doorstep service.

Who it suits

It is best suited to riders who want performance and sharp handling. With this much performance, it is better as a step-up bike than a first bike.

Care notes for this model

Its chain drive needs regular cleaning, lubrication and slack adjustment.

Maintaining the BMW Motorrad F 900 R

  • Routine servicing

    Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.

  • Engine oil & filter

    Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.

  • Brake inspection

    With Double Disc, 320 mm and Disc, 265 mm brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.

  • Chain cleaning & lubrication

    A clean, correctly tensioned and lubricated chain lasts longer and wastes less power. Check slack regularly, especially after riding in rain or dust.

  • Coolant & cooling system

    A liquid-cooled engine relies on coolant. Check the level and look over hoses and the radiator for leaks or damage, and replace coolant as the owner's manual directs.

  • Air filter & spark plug

    A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.

  • Disc brake fluid

    Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.

  • Tyre inspection

    This bike runs 120/70-ZR-17 / 180/55-ZR-17 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.

  • Battery & electricals

    The battery is listed as Lead Acid. Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.

BMW Motorrad F 900 R specs explained

What the technical terms on this page mean.

ABS
Anti-lock braking system. It stops a wheel locking up during hard braking so the rider can keep steering. A single-channel system works on one wheel, usually the front; a dual-channel system works on both.
Liquid cooling
Coolant circulates through the engine and a radiator, keeping temperatures steadier than air alone, especially in traffic or under load.
Upside-down fork
A front fork mounted the opposite way round to a conventional one, with the thicker tubes at the top. It is typically stiffer under braking and cornering.
Tubeless tyres
Tyres with no inner tube. A small puncture usually loses air slowly, which makes roadside repair easier.
Kerb weight
The weight of the bike ready to ride, with its fluids and fuel, but without a rider or luggage.
Bore x stroke
The cylinder's width and the piston's travel. A larger bore relative to stroke tends to favour revs; a longer stroke tends to favour low-speed pull.
Compression ratio
How much the fuel-air mixture is squeezed before it is ignited. It is one of the factors behind an engine's efficiency and power.
