BMW's K series is not the obvious choice for a custom build, but if you want to use one every day, you need to shed a few kilos and some bulk.
Chapter 02 — The front
Off with
the front
So off came the whole front end, replaced by an aluminium housing for the original instruments.
Chapter 03 — Seat and tail
Comfortable
and sporty
A handmade single seat that is still comfortable, and a tail section, also made by hand, that redefines the rear line and gives it a sporty look.
Chapter 04 — The fairing
From GT
to naked
The fairing is cut back, and the GT becomes a naked.
Chapter 05 — The exhaust
Wheel
on show
The exhaust was also modified, shortening the original silencer to leave the wheel and the single-sided swingarm exposed.
The two-tone paint slims down its imposing mass and brings out its soft, graceful lines.
