Just so I do t have to look at the childish oil cooler, anybody know what this is? View attachment 15137

The actual exhaust pipe, the black part is a cover
The oil cooler actually looks like the original one, just mounted out in the open, can't say I like this bike ... But to each it's own ...

Looks like a Jekyll & Hyde exhaust system.. also, what's up with the relocation of the oil cooler; is that a beverage Holder/ oil cooler..?

I'm trying to figure out if that is a travel mug or a sound speaker mounted behind the oil cooler?

I think the idea ( not that I agree with it) is the relocated oil cooler is a coffee(/cognac/bailey's) warmer

Clearly fabrication is not in their toolbox.

Cool idea. Poorly executed. But that’s my opinion. And I assume this is posted for opinions. Not intended to offend the owner or author.

For me, wrong color for the tank, messed up pinstripes. Gotta distress both the roundel and the stripes.

YMMV.

Nice. Very well done. Any ideas on the exhaust manufacturer?

And look at that air intake. Cool stuff here. Again, any info on this builder would be appreciated

Exhaust - FCR ( French company ).

Fcr make a nice side licence plate holder that is adaptable to NA plates.

I'm thinking that if BMW was to manufacture the R18 Concept design; that they would do pretty well everyday of the week, and twice as well on Sunday sales-wise..

I love my Model B, but would like to have a bobber type bike as well....

So what needs to be remanufactured? I don’t understand your comment

I stand corrected... I spent some time on the BMW site and was able to basically configure a bike similar to yours...

Post in thread 'Bobber kit options to date'

Aug 18, 2024

I did a lot of research on the different bobber options. The highest quality and cleanest look is the LMC components but you will need the patience of Jobe dealing with Hans.

@ MilwDave & Gr8Adv - it would be great if you guys (and others) could post some featured pictures of your bobber kit items...

I've also been looking at the LMC stuff; is there any parts that you would do differently or perhaps from a different company. How about front Directional Blinkers..? Looking for suggestions..
