PROJECT ZERO 14: THE OUTLAW

Posted by Cafe Rider on

An outlaw is someone who has broken the law or gone against the norms. The idea of this bike was to go against all norms of a standard café racer, brat style or a bobber.

Based on a BMW R80RT, 1987, this touring motorcycle had its DNA altered to stand apart. Project Outlaw is a combination of bobber and brat style of custom motorcycle. The Springer front end, fishtail exhaust and wide white wall tires define a typical bobber character whereas the flat seat, upright sitting position and tracker bar define the brat aspect.

The Springer front end is from 1937-1946 era of Harley Davidson. It runs on 16” rims and Coker Becks white wall tires. The inverted Tracker handle bar and hand control levers resemble a charging bull. The bike breathes on Webber Carbs and custom made intake manifold. The use of Motogadget components have given the elegant minimalistic look: a keyless entry, mini handlebar switches, pin turn signals and motoscope speedo compliment the overall minimal look.
