BMW R18 BOBBER BROWN

BMW R18 BOBBER BROWN

The “BOBBER BROWN” is the new BMW R18 customised by Lord Drake Kustoms in his workshop in Velez Malaga (Spain).

Francisco Alí Manén, owner of LDK, received this BMW R18 from its owner and directly from the BMW dealer.

A BOBBER WITH A BOXER ENGINE

The idea was for it to be a fully modified Bobber style bike, but with one condition… it had to keep the original black colour with white lines… and chrome components.

Called “BOBBER BROWN”, this BMW R18 is quite a beast (aesthetically speaking) as, except for the original fuel tank, components have been touched on almost every part of the bike to turn it into a bobber with a boxer engine.

MODIFICATIONS

The rear, consisting of a mudguard attached to the wheel with metal tube side supports, a side-arm number plate holder made by LDK that locates the plate just behind the wheel and minimalist 3-in-1 lights with built-in Kellerman indicators.

The brown diamond-finish single seat, which gives the bike its name, and the seat mount for BMW R18 are also handcrafted at Lord Drake Kustoms.

SPORTSTER ARMY 48

On a Harley Davidson XL 1200 Forty Eight base, this bobber motorcycle called “SPORTSTER ARMY 48” has been created and modified by the Lord Drake Kustoms team in their motorcycle customization workshop in Spain.

A MILITARY HARLEY

The owner of LDK, Francisco Alí Manén, wanted to modify this Sportster Forty Eight keeping its essence and giving it a touch more retro and inspired by the old military Harleys… The result is a current version of what could be a Harley Army bobber style in these times.

Ask for a budget without commitment

MODIFICATIONS

In keeping with the spirit of the Sportster 48, the original wheels and fuel tank have been retained. The rest of this custom bike has been modified and transformed to a lesser or greater extent until this “SPORTSTER ARMY 48” became the bobber bike it is today.

MILITARY GREEN

For the finish Fran Manen, decided that the bodywork should be painted in matte military green; which has been accompanied by a combination of gloss black and matte black in the rest of the parts and components of the bike and a brown leather seat with diamonds. Elements such as the impressive exhaust with grenade-like tailpipes, the chrome engine covers or the classic Harley Davidson emblems on the fuel tank have given this Sportster Bobber a brutal look.

HOMOLOGATION

The “SPORTSTER ARMY 48” has been fully homologated for Spanish territory (except for the exhaust and air filter) before being delivered to its owner who now enjoys this elegant two-wheeled military steamroller customized by the Lord Drake Kustoms team.

BMW R45 ARMY SCRAMBLER

The BMW R45 ARMY scrambler, is one of the works of customization and modification of a BMW that we have done in our cafe racer and scrambler workshop in Spain and that without being a work of high-level motorbike transformation, has given spectacular results.

AN UPGRADED MOTORBIKE

Fran Manen (owner of Lord Drake Kustoms) received this bike from a customer from Alicante, who initially wanted to do something very very basic, but little by little the level was raised and in the end this classic BMW R45 has become a beautiful scrambler motorcycle scrambler bike, part of it due to the elegant colour combination that combines black with glossy military green and brown seat.

Ask for a budget without commitment

MODIFICATIONS

The first thing that was done was to dismantle the whole bike to get it ready, sandblast the parts and then paint them with electrostatic powder coating. The front suspension was then modified and the two-seater scrambler subframe for BMW R was produced. A Biltwell tracker handlebar and Harley Davidson shock absorbers formed the frame of this BMW R scrambler.

Seat detail

Handcrafted seat

For the BMW R45 army scrambler, the seat base was made and then upholstered in brown leatherette with rhombuses and a handmade number plate holder.

Odometer detail

Motogadget Mini Odometer

The front mudguard has also been shortened and shorter BMW R exhaust tailpipes have been fitted along with the typical black heat tape on the tailpipes.

LED turn signals, motogadget mini digital odometer, biltwell grips, mirrors and other details such as the ignition key on the side or the air handles, have completed the customisation work on a scrambler bike that used to be a modest low-displacement BMW and now looks like one of its big sisters the BMW R100 or R80 scrambler.

Ask for a budget without commitment

MILITARY GREEN

The paintwork is all black except for the fuel tank, which was originally intended to be matt military green as is usual on military vehicles, but in the end it was decided to leave the finish glossy, which has given it a touch of superior elegance.

SPORTSTER BOBBER GULF 2.0

Discover the Sportster Bobber Gulf 2, a unique custom motorbike created at the renowned Lord Drake Kustoms workshop in Spain. This project started with a carburetted Harley-Davidson Sportster 883 R as a base, and has been taken to the next level through a handcrafted and detailed modification process.

A carefully modified Sportster

The Sportster Bobber Gulf 2 has been transformed with a meticulous approach to every detail. According to Francisco Alí Manén, founder of Lord Drake Kustoms, this bike has been completely modified, starting with the installation of a shorter, handcrafted front wing and a bobber-style rear wing fitted with custom brackets. Each of these elements has been designed to ensure a unique and functional finish.

Modifications

On the Sportster Bobber Gulf 2, no resources have been spared to achieve an exceptional level of customisation. Enhancements include:

  • Custom thick-spoke wheels: Both wheels feature this design, with a significant change to the front wheel, which now has a 21-inch rim.
  • ‘Mini Ape’ Handlebar: Provides a classic and comfortable look, complemented by Biltwell grips.
  • Springless bobber seat: A Biltwell model that reinforces the bobber spirit of this Harley.
  • Handcrafted number plate bracket: Designed specifically for Sportster 883.
  • Front spoiler or keel: Adds character and aerodynamics.
  • Python exhaust system: Accompanied by black heat tape, it enhances the performance and styling of the bike.
  • Premium accessories: Custom air filter, tail light, 3:1 Kellerman turn signals and more.

All parts have been carefully selected in collaboration with ‘Customiza tu Moto’, a shop specialised in custom and Harley-Davidson accessories.

ORANGE AND SKY BLUE

One of the most striking elements of the Sportster Bobber Gulf 2 is its stunning finish. The bike combines pure gloss lacquered metal with orange and light blue accents in homage to the iconic Gulf brand. This colour scheme not only emphasises the bobber identity, but also gives it a retro, sporty look that doesn’t go unnoticed.

Painting detail

Homologated for Spain

The Sportster Bobber Gulf 2 is not only a work of art on wheels, it is also ready to hit the streets and roads of Spain. All modifications, with the exception of the exhaust, have been homologated and legalised to ensure that this transformed Harley complies with Spanish regulations.

Thanks to the work of Lord Drake Kustoms, this bike is a perfect example of how to customize a Harley-Davidson without losing its essence. Get ready for a unique riding experience with the Sportster Bobber Gulf 2!

FATBOY 15TH ANNIVERSARY

At Lord Drake Kustoms, we have transformed an iconic 2005 Harley Davidson Fatboy 15th Anniversary, giving it a new style that combines elegance and power. This model, a symbol of tradition and character, has received a complete restyling in our workshop specialising in customising motorbikes.

The legacy of the original model

The Harley Davidson Fatboy has always been a benchmark in the custom motorbike world. Its rugged design and exceptional performance have made it a classic since its launch. The 2005 15th Anniversary Edition celebrated this history with unique details that made it even more special. With this in mind, Fran Manen’s aim was to respect its essence, but adapt it to the style and demands of today’s custom enthusiasts.

Ask for a budget without commitment

Modifications

The project had a clear starting point: to fit a 240mm rear wheel, perfect for Harley Softail models, accompanied by a spectacular thick-spoke custom rim. From there, we added a number of upgrades that elevate the personality and functionality of this bike:

  • Stylised rear mudguard, designed to harmonise with the new wheel.
  • Matching front rim, achieving an impeccable visual balance.
  • New seat, more comfortable and adapted to the style of this customisation.
  • Upgraded number plate bracket and indicators for a modern, clean look.
  • Legend air suspension, offering a smooth and personalised driving experience.

BLACK & GOLD

The paintwork on this 15th Anniversary Fatboy is a key element in its transformation. Every line and detail has been carefully crafted to enhance the classic shape of this model, adding a contemporary edge that sets it apart. The finishes, in premium quality black with gold accents and bright chrome, reflect our dedication to delivering bikes that are not only powerful, but also visually stunning.

A Tribute to the Fatboy 15th Anniversary

With this restyling, we wanted to pay homage to the legacy of the Fatboy 15th Anniversary, modernising its design without losing the essence that makes it unique. At Lord Drake Kustoms, every project is an opportunity to take Harley Davidson motorbikes to the next level, and this one is no exception. If you are looking for a transformation that combines tradition and modernity, this Fatboy is the perfect example of what we can achieve.

BMW R65 BOBBER SCRAMBLER

For this new BMW R65 BOBBER SCRAMBLER, customized in the workshop of transformations of BMW motorcycles in Spain of Lord Drake Kustoms, we have used as a base a model of the German brand of less displacement as is the R65.

FROM CAFE RACER TO BOBBER SCRAMBLER

The first idea for this BMW R65 was to make just a very simple cafe racer transformation, but little by little the owner of this custom bike was changing his idea until finally deciding to make a whole BMW Bobber Scrambler, without contemplation.

After a multitude of ideas and conversions between the owner of the bike and Francisco Ali Manen (owner of Lord Drake Kustoms), it was clearly decided that every last detail of this custom bike was tastefully and elegantly customized.

Ask for a budget without commitment

MODIFICATIONS

Almost when the project was halfway through it was decided to change the original fuel tank of the R65 for one of R100 as the change was becoming more and more spectacular but the original tank of this bike did not quite fit with the rest of the bobber scrambler transformations that were being made.

Low tracker handlebar

The bobber hanging seat for BMW upholstered in black with rhombus patterns accompanies other elements such as a low tracker handlebar, a motogadget mini odometer, LED turn signals, license plate holder for BMW R, auxiliary headlight or custom-made mudguards.

MATTE BLACK

For this BMW R65 BOBBER SCRAMBLER we have chosen an elegant gloss black color with double white line on the tank and silver fenders. Many of the parts such as the chassis, swingarm, engine covers, rims, front suspension have been painted in matte black using powdercoating at Metalcolors.

HOMOLOGATION

Finally our homologations department at Lord Drake Kustoms has been in charge of homologating the modifications made on a converted motorcycle for Spanish territory as this BMW R65 BOBBER SCRAMBLER.

BLACK AND WHITE

And as for the painting and finishing of this custom bike… it has been all very simple: As if it were a dinner jacket … All black except the shirt of the suit that has been painted in gloss white (in this case the fuel tank) and that gives the name to this “SPORTSTER BOBBER WHITE” and a small detail of colour with red spark plug keys.

We present you another BMW R100 called ‘DARK BOBBER’, a customised bike with bobber scrambler style that has been transformed at Lord Drake Kustoms’ BMW bike customisation workshop in Malaga (Spain).

BOTH BOBBER AND SCRAMBLER

The team of Lord Drake Kustoms and its owner Francisco Alí Manén, once again leave a proof with this custom bike, that they can also customize bobber and/or scrambler style bikes on the basis of classic BMW bikes like R100, R90, R80, R65, etc.

This BMW R100 was commissioned by Fran Manen, owner of LDK, for a customer for whom he had previously customised a Triumph brat/scrambler in Ibiza.

MODIFICATIONS

All in matt black was one of the requirements, hence the name BMW R100 ‘DARK BOBBER’. In addition, details such as the Motogadget odometer together with the blaze LED indicators of the same brand located at the ends of the handlebars, accompanied by Biltwell grips, minimalist button panels and new hand controls such as the handlebar bracket and front brake pump for BMW R.

Other details of this BMW bobber are the mudguards and number plate bracket all made by Lord Drake Kustoms, the Biltwell single seat and finally the scrambler touch is provided by the Continetal TKC 80 tyres.

Shorter-than-usual exhaust tailpipes and K&N conical air filters improve the performance of this German-based bobber’s boxer engine.

HOMOLOGATION

Finally this BMW R100 ‘DARK BOBBER’ (before being sent to its owner in Ibiza) has been homologated thanks to Lord Drake Kustoms legalisation department in Spain for the legalisation of modifications carried out on a converted motorbike.
