BMW Custom Bikes: Spirit of ZellerThe Spirit of Zeller is a homage to the German racing legend, Walter Zeller. Inspired by the BMW RS 54 from 1954, the customisers at Officine Sbrannetti put everything into the modifications, making use of all their technical craftsmanship. The original seat was replaced with a new handmade one, wrapped entirely in leather. The protective plates are formed from solid metal. To ensure even more motor racing character, they fitted two separate handlebars, which made space for a simple 50s style speedometer. The "Mass" exhaust system provides the appropriate sound. The Italian customiser didn't hold back with the bike's paint. And to ensure that the completely new paint scheme doesn't get scratched, there is a leather tank belt for protection. The silver grey elements such as the fork, wheel rims, handlebar covers, valve covers and Cardan shaft drive provide a contrast to the colour. The colourful highlight is the bright yellow number plates with start numbers cut from aluminium. There's no doubt: the guys at Officine Sbrannetti have created a genuine racing bike from the R nineT. That's why they're in pole position for us.
