This might not be the first customized R80 we’ve
come across in the past (they’re a highly preferred platform for customization
in the bike world) but this might be one of the most aggressive. Which isn’t a bad thing at all in our minds.
It comes compliments of Barbara Custom Motorcycles’
design house in which they’ve yet again outdone themselves in transforming an
old bike into a futuristic two-wheeled beast ready to tear up the asphalt. Of
course, Barbara Custom opted to upgrade several of the R80’s most attractive
features – such as a contemporary RnineT swingarm, sleek single-piece front
fairing, aerodynamic saddle, and USD front forks that are now fitted to the
frame. Straight out of future yet a blast from the past, this is one conceptual
design we’d love to get our hands on.
