We got the motor clean and tight. Going to use a a streamlined cover in place of the air cleaner ... more to come on how we make some nice accents to what you see. 😎😎

Excited about this next project. It starts with a 1995 BMW R100RT as the donor bike. Watch for posts as the project progresses. The motor is rough, but more on how it is going to be hot rodded later ... start tuned!

38 Special is the first build. Targeting industrial simplicity, this 1977 BMW R75/7 was hot rodded with the full 1000 cc kit along with bigger carbs and stripped to be a minimalist ride. Even the paint was removed - the tank is hand sanded and clear coated to accent the industrial look. Custom bits abound, including a hand-crafted battery box with speed holes. Dual floating front discs provide stopping power and Avon tires provide grip.
