• Stylish Brat Bike based on a standard 1972 BMW R75
• Subtly modified with cut down mudguards, single seat and enduro tyres
• Fitted with adjustable Ohlins rear dampers

BMW was established in the early 1900s as a manufacturer of aircraft engines and produced their first motorcycle in 1923, the R23, already sporting the flat-twin boxer configuration they have now become synonymous with. By the 1970s they had become the most popular bike for long distance touring due to the torquey engine and shaft drive transmission. With their solid design and legendary reliability, mid 1970s ‘Airheads’ have become the most popular bike for modifying into ‘Brat Bikes’ or ‘Cafe Racers’ in recent years.

This 1972 R75 has been tastefully customized whilst keeping the character of the original bike. Fitted with an alloy front mudguard, shortened alloy rear mudguard and rear light mounting together with a single seat it achieves the crucial cut-down look without any major modifications to the standard frame. The original drum braked wheels have been fitted with enduro tyres, the rear dampers are Ohlins and the handlebars are braced off road style all finished off with a pair of chrome reverse cone silencers. A very attractive bike finished Metallic Grey, it has just had an oil and filter change and started and ran whilst being photographed. Supplied with a current V5C.
