Starting with a 1969 BMW R75/5, we repaired and braced the frame along with removing the factory tabs before refinishing in a gloss black powder coat. We fitted our custom subframe with a flush mount brake light and turn signals. The front end consists of a pair of Showa USD forks mounted via a custom triple tree, whilst rear suspension is taken care of with a pair of Öhlins shocks with external reservoirs. The exhaust is a full stainless system including quiet-core mufflers from Cone Engineering. The result is a classic cafe racer with modern handling characteristics, excellent brakes and ample power.

The original engine has been rebuilt with displacement increased to 1000cc and a compression ratio of 9.0:1. The heads have been twin plugged and a twin spark ignition system powers a pair of dual coils, one mounted under the tank and the other under the timing cover. The Mikuni carburetors have been jetted and tuned to suit. The factory airbox was drilled in the style of a 1977 R100RS. The starter was upgraded to a lightweight hi-torque unit to compliment the lithium battery that is housed safely under the gas tank. The factory charge system was replaced with a modern upgraded unit

A /5 headlight bucket is mounted to a pair of Showa USD forks. Brakes consist of a pair of Brembo radial calipers powered by an under-tank master cylinder. The headlight has been modified to LED for brighter light and less draw on the battery.

A new Motometer Speedometer incorporates a tach and indicator lights. Hand controls are new OEM units, modified to suit the custom wiring harness. All original hardware was zinc plated.
