V08
BMW R80RT
This is one demon of a motorbike - and the detailing will stun you.
| Model | BMW R80RT |

Brutally styled, stripped of all but the barest essentials, this bespoke Vagabund V08 discards all of the commuter respectability of the 1988 BMW R80RT on which it is based.
The mudguards were discarded as heavy and unnecessary. The slim fuel tank is off a BMW R75/5. The foreshortened rear frame is hand-made. A fresh exhaust system from a BMW R100R is black ceramic coated.
On the shortened handlebars, there's a minute speedo by Motogadget who also supplied the tiny turn signals. A Shin-Yo LED rear light has its own specially-built housing. Even the new rear numberplate holder was made in the Vagabund workshop.
