BMW R100R Blue Phantom
The donor machine is a 1993 BMW R100R.
Fully restored, we turned in into a sweet street tracker on behalf of its German owner.
We also decided to go for a paint job on the tank and picked up the official blue used by Rolls Royce for some of their beautiful cars (among which the world famous Phantom).
