With a company statement of “Life is too short to ride boring motorcycles”, you’ve made a very clear statement.

Working with TÜV regulations can be a real pain in the ass for custom builders, so this gives an idea of how these guys work.
This BMW R80 cafe racer is their 4th official build. Their client wanted something special and drove around 6 hours just to discuss the project. Soon they’ve concluded that it should be a BMW airhead. In the heart of Bavaria, Neurenberg to be precise, they’re pretty close to BMW. And they’ve managed to find a BMW R80 Monolever in a near mint condition. The result is what you see here:
