HB Custom BMW R 100 RS

Custom bike No. 10 by Holger Breuer

Holger Breuer has made ten custom bikes in the last five years. One of them is the HB Custom BMW R 100 RS, No. 10 in the portfolio. For No. 8, the BMW R 80 RT, you will find an extra picture gallery below.

W.hen Holger Breuer is not currently working as an electrician in the local dairy, he looks after the family, house and garden – as is the custom in rural Lower Saxony. Whatever time is left over, the 33-year-old spends in a tiny workshop to create extremely fine custom bikes. There have been ten of them in the past five years, most of them based on the old Kawasaki twin Z 750 B or the BMW two-valve boxer.

Holger’s current work also bears the sign with the white and blue propeller symbol on the tank. But not just any one, but the old one. Made of enamel. Holger’s customer in the USA found the right toaster tank, the parts are slowly becoming rare and correspondingly expensive. The good man also dragged an R 100 RS with RT fairing and in a pitiful condition, with the request that Holger should form both – tank and machine – into a harmonious whole.

Complete disassembly of the BMW R 100 RS

After the complete dismantling of the old tourer, a lot of plastic was found on ebay, the engine and final drive, however, went to Minden, where they were restored to new condition under the expert hands of Heinz Bals (hbs-bmw.de ). In the meantime, Holger shortened the rear frame by seven centimeters and lifted it slightly, a very flat bench now crowns the pipe work. Fehling contributed the handlebars, the footrests are from Tarozzi. Heidenau studded tires spread out on the original cast wheels, the swing arm is supported against Ikon struts.

The electrics are self-made, of course, with Holger concentrating the cables under the bench. The ignition lock sits in the frame triangle, the gel battery in its usual place, but is not even half the size of the original Trumm.

The little things are very important when customizing, here for example the lamp and rear light, and they are really small. The silencers are a bit smaller than the originals, they come from Hattech. This makes this BMW sound the way it looks. Strong. There are more powerful bikes at hb-custom.de
