BMW does not have
never hidden that its new R18 would lend itself readily to customization exercises.
Its coming into the world began with show-bikes and good shows.
before its marketing. Roland Sands is eager to create a version
Big Bavarian Custom Dragster.
Sketches,
sketches, creation… and three and a half months later, a
muscle-bike with neuro-active load presents itself with a CV to burn gum
and lumbar. Some connection with the V-Rod Destroyer? Not really.
Visually,
the engine stands out even more in the R18 Dragster. 1803 cm3 shared between
two cylinders, whose role is no longer to distribute cruising but
violence. Roland’s team had a bit of a hard time with electronics
engine, because it was necessary to deal with the transplant of a nitrous oxide system,
totally different admission
and widely released exhausts. Stainless steel megaphone-type pots
are handcrafted at RSD.
Design like
cycle parts have become much more radical. To strengthen the front axle,
an R Nine-T fork was installed, completed by brake calipers in
from the hypersport S 1000 RR. On the other hand, the master cylinders of
brake and clutch are signed Roland Sands.
For the rear, everything has been simplified. A great dissecting stroke, a
dismissal of all suspension, and the adoption of a rigid framework as it
must be for this kind of super-activated adrenaline machine.
The saddle is
also replaced, with an imposing backrest to properly support the pelvis during acceleration.
A creation of Saddlement. The mudguards had to be adapted and the installation of
color done with care. Chris Wood applied on a metallic blue
two-tone with white stripes.
