BMW R80 M-E 78
Based on a 1986 BMW R80RT, the M-E 71 build features a low stance and aggressive looks.
First the bike was stripped down and then powder coated along with the wheels, with a custom shortened rear frame. The seat was handmade and covered in black. The tank was painted in a blue color with black side strips. The engine was reconditioned. The exhaust is in stainless steel. We removed the high handlebars with clip ons ones. The footpegs were replaced by cnc finish ones.
We use new Brembo braking system. The front shock is original but the rear we used Wilbers shock absorber. The M-E 70 uses a brand new Motogadget digital speedometer. The clean look of the bike is very important so the lights were replaced by a full LED in the subframe for the rear and compact cleaned up at the front.
