BMW is well known in the world of custom motorcycles
for having some excellent starting point bikes. After all, their R nineT line
is one of the most popular right now for how little it has to be changed in
order to look like a stunning custom bike. Not all of their offerings, however,
are quite so simple. And that’s exactly what makes this BMW R1200C by ROA
Motorcycles so impressive: its transformation.
If you’re not familiar, this bike started its life
out as a cruiser. Then, the Spaniards at ROA got their hands on it and
masterfully molded it into the stunning black and white cafe racer you see
before you today. The list of alterations is pretty extensive, as you might
imagine – including a chopped rear fender, a new custom seat, a new exhaust, a
handlebar swap-out with a digital display slapped between them, a gorgeous
one-of-a-kind quilted leather air intake, and so much more.
Best part is, while
this is a one-off bike, you can order a custom job for yourself. Prices start
at around US$ 5,340 plus the price of the bike (or deliver your own).
