BMW R100 RT Mono (1992-1993) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 1992, the German motorcycle manufacturer released the BMW R100 RT Mono, a touring-oriented version of the base model. It was one of many versions created by the House of Munich and received the same Monolever system as the RS Mono.

The 1992 motorcycle came in the same shape and form as the previous model, delivering the same visual, technical, and performance specifications without any major changes whatsoever.

The bike was manufactured around a steel frame with a telescopic fork on the front that offered 200 mm of travel and a single-sided swingarm with a single shock absorber on the rear that provided 125 mm of travel, handling the bike's suspension.

As for the braking performance, the bike packed two 260 mm brake discs engaged by dual-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 200 mm drum braking unit on the rear, offering optimum braking performance.

In terms of power, the 1992 BMW R100 RT Mono had its heartbeat set by a 980cc four-stroke air-cooled twin-cylinder boxer engine that delivered 60 hp with maximum peak at 7,000 rpm and 75 Nm (55 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.

In the aesthetic department, the motorcycle had standard features, such as a half fairing with a round headlight, a windscreen for better protection against elements, a one-piece dual seat, side-mounted panniers, a dual exhaust system with a muffler mounted on each side, and eight-spoke aluminum wheels.
