Welcome to Two-Minute Test Rides! There are a lot of bikes I've gotten to ride for just a few minutes. Enough to have some takeaways, but not enough to offer an in-depth review. Rather than try to milk a full-length video out of a quick jog, I'll use the 2MTR format to get my thoughts out in a quick, digestible format. Let me know what you think!

The BMW R nineT is one of a few motorcycles competing in the big retro twin segment. Among itself, the Ducati Scrambler 1100, Indian FTR, and Triumph Speed Twin, it is the second-most powerful, and the weirdest. If an unfiltered mechanical feel and rev-loving boxer twin are your thing, you'll have a ball with the R nineT.
