!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! is a custom moto shop in Japan that specializes in BMW customs.. and I’d argue that they might build the best beemer customs. I drool every time one of their bikes shows up on the various bike websites. But I was looking at their website and thought I’d post a few pics from it....

A while back, I saw an interview with the owner of the shop- and he was explaining how when he starts a new bike project, he starts with the engine. And as as he painstakingly rebuilds the engine, it’s here where he listens for the soul of the bike.. Only after rebuilding the engine does he feel close enough to the bike to decide what direction to take it aesthetically...

Normally, I’m not a fan of BMW RS’s full fairing, but I’d rock this chopped fairing R100RS all day long! It looks to me like a vintage bike and a space-ship had a love-child. And a extra kudos for the BMW race colors....
