BMW Motorrad, the German motorcycle manufacturer, recently unveiled BMW Motorrad Concept 9cento. The Concept 9cento is a concept sports tourer. The motorcycle showcases the company’s future development plans in the sports tourer segment.

Worldwide, lots of people prefer a sports tourer instead of a traditional tourer. The reason behind this preference is the power, dynamic handling, and low curb-weight. Traditionally, a proper tourer is a bulky and heavy motorcycle. So, it’s very difficult to maneuver in corners and in traffic. Hence, on the same notion, the company is now focusing on sports tourer segment.

The BMW Motorrad Concept 9cento focuses more on the adventure sport. Concept 9cento combines performance, emotion, agility, riding fun and adventurous spirit. The combination of all these abilities makes the Concept 9cento a perfect sports tourer. So, you can consider that this bike defines a new class. Thus, it’s a mix of sport, touring and adventure motorcycle segments.
