EARTH MOTO - richtar
BMW R100RT 1991
Imagine a motorcycle that captures your attention at first glance, a masterpiece where flawless lines and clean design merge seamlessly to create an icon of perfection.
Custom-made for our happy Dutch customer, the Richtar is a testament to artistry and engineering, stands out not just for its overall aesthetic but for its careful attention to detail and bespoke components.
The unique placement of the fog light switch, integrated into the center stem of the triple yokes, highlights our attention to detail. The central position makes it easily accessible while maintaining the bike's clean and uncluttered look.
The fuel tank has been skillfully reshaped to eliminate the stock folds, resulting in a cleaner, more refined appearance. This modification not only improves the bike's visual appeal but also enhances its sleek profile.
The Richtar is finished in a distinctive shade of blue, adding to its unique and striking appearance. This special color choice ensures that the bike stands out from the crowd.
The seat is a custom-made piece designed to blend seamlessly with the motorcycle's aesthetic while providing comfort for the rider. Its minimalist design complements the bike's overall look.
Details matter
The carburettor is painted black to match the color of the engine, creating a cohesive and polished look.
The edges of the ribs on the cylinders are highlighted in brushed silver finish, adding a touch of contrast and sophistication to the engine area. This subtle detail elevates the overall visual appeal of the bike.
The rear fender is mounted in a custom fashion, contributing to the bike's clean lines and minimalist design. This unique mounting solution adds to the overall bespoke nature of the motorcycle.
