Rat Tracker (BMW Custom Bikes)

BMW Custom Bikes: Rat Tracker

Kevil's Speed Shop.

The customizer at Kevil’s Speed Shop were infected with the passion and enthusiasm for the R nineT and built their very own version. Their topic: 'Rat Rod'. The base design was to remain unchanged that the bike is immediately to be detected as an R nineT. With patinated edges and a Nefarius lining, the guys from Great Britain have created a true old school look. In addition to the startling colour, the striking exhaust system, the wide tyres and the whole front arrange for the aggressive and powerful appearance. Yet, as is generally known, the devil is in the details: diamond pattern on the seat, LED-indicator by Motogadget, the headlamp housing, and much more... What was created is a rusty red Rat Tracker that polarises, but no matter if you find it good or not – it definitely stands out.

Spirit of Zeller (BMW)

BMW Custom Bikes: Spirit of Zeller
The 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.
