If ridden like that without fenders, one bump and the tyre would sand-paper my bottom in no time. :lol:

Magnificent craftsmanship though on the bike!!! Bravo!

A real head turner. Hope you don't get worn out telling everybody, that will ask you, how you did it. Maybe type up a one page play by play of how you accomplished it and let them read it. Great job.

Oil Coolers

Post by Airman »

Rchop,

Maybe I missed something here. Where are the oil coolers ?
I love the bike of course. BMW should hire you to do their concept work.
Are there plans to make more then one ?

ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod, OHMYGOD ! ! !

I neglected to open this thread, not realizing that I was missing out on
some of the coolest stuff EVER on R1150R.org! I just got through looking
at the images from page 1 through 11,
and without reading any dialogue, the story line represented by the images,
had me sitting on the edge of my seat!

I don't know if I'm allowed to suggest it, but your bike reminds me of the
Victory 8-Ball that I like so much, but with a coolass WIDE-GLIDE front
end!!! I'm a bit blown away, and never a better treat than to happen
upon your pictoral rather unexpectedly tonight.

A CLEAN chopper with a Beemer BOXER power-plant!
Nothing could be more cool.
