BMW R100 CBGS
Based on a ‘84 BMW R100 GS, here is this new production of ours.
For this project, one of the main point made by the future owner was the ability to carry more than our usual “3+6 liters” of gasoline. We therefore decided to install a vintage Honda CB 250 cc tank. As usual, mounted “as found”. This one has now 12 liters gasoline, which fits perfectly with the client’s needs.
