This BMW K75 SILVER SCRAMBLER is a bike transformed in the workshop of Lord Drake KustomsBMW motorcycle modifications in Spain.
METAL EFFECT
The owner of LDK (Francisco Alí Manén) decided on this custom bike not to use paint for the fuel tank and also not to leave it in matte finish as usual. After stripping and removing all the paint from the tank of this BMW K75, he proceeded to give an effect to the metal and then lacquered it in gloss to give it that silver finish that gives name to the bike SILVER SCRAMBLER.
This BMW K75 scrambler is characterized like other similar units by Continental TKC 80 tires, tracker handlebar, seat and subframe modified to give it that Street tracker or scrambler style.
A minimalist exhaust tailpipe attached to the original manifolds on this scrambler bike are another highlight, as are the side covers made of metal and aluminum grilles.

This custom motorcycle came to us from the North of Spain and its owner wanted an authentic Harley Davidson bobber, but with more spectacular size and appearance wheels … and above all he wanted to keep the colors and graphics of the original Sportster penaut fuel tank.
RESTART FROM ZERO
This Harley Sportsterhas been completely disassembled and then the entire subframe was cut off to house a new bobber rear fender for Sportster, handcrafted in our Harley Davidson workshop in Malaga.
Highlight, a wider rear wheel for Harley (we have put a rim with a 150 tire instead of the original 130). At the front, wide triple posts have been installed to accommodate a new 21 ”wheel with a 120 tire. To complete the set of wheels, we have installed Big Spoke rims or fat spokes for Harley in gloss black color.
We made the front fender out of metal and fitted a small Ape Hanger handlebar for Sportster. We have lowered the suspension of this Bobber bikewith some new shorter shocks; and finally a Biltwell springless seat has been attached to the bike’s chassis.

Finally we have installed in the “Sportster Bobber 02” some santee exhausts, a rough crafts air filter, LED indicators integrated in the hand controls, gas cap, Biltwell grips, new 48mm MMB odometer for Sportstery models, a host of parts and custom accessories from our online store Customiza tu Moto and our Harley Davidson store in Malaga.
Regarding the paint of this custom bike, we have respected the original colors and graphics of the Harley gas tank (which we have reworked to give it new life) and we have painted the fenders to match. The rest has been a gloss black powdercoating job done by the Metal Colors company.
HOMOLOGATION
Regarding the reform and approval of custom transformations carried out on this bobber motorcycle, Lord Drake Kustoms‘ own team has been in charge of approving all the changes made to the vehicle for Spain and delivering the motorcycle to the customer.
Deciding between a transformation of an Indian Scout or Harley Davidson Sportster is a question that customerspresent a lot in the Lord Drake Kustomsmotorcycle transformationworkshop in Malaga (Spain).
The first thing we say to customers is that they should take into account what style of custom motorcycle we are looking to obtain. And above all, before choosingan Indian or a Harley we must take into account which Sportster model is chosen as the base bike to customize.
For us, without a doubt the best motorcycle to carry out modifications and transformations is the Sportster when we talk about traditional models, marketed in Spain until 2021…. But if we talk about the new Harley Davidson Sportster 1200S, our opinion changes and a lot; It has nothing to do with using a traditional Harley Sportster model or the new Sportster 1200S model.
But Fran himself tells us, that much to his regret; If when looking for a good motorcycle to carry out a transformation you have to choose between an Indian Scout or a Sportster 1200 S, for now perhaps he would opt for the Scout(always at levels of aesthetic results), because the Indian has more possibilities Modification of the new Harley 1200S and it also seems to us a custom motorcycle with more spirit and originality in its design than the Harley Davidson.
In summary, between the transformation of an Indian Scout or a Harley Davidson Sportster, for now the model that we see more limited when it comes to doingdifferent modification and customization jobs is the Sporster 1200S.
If you want a bobber and even a cafe racer, you can perfectly use the Indian Scout or of course the traditional Sportster 883 or 1200 models.
But if you want a custom motorcycle with which you can make a scrambler, a brat or even something more custom chopperstyle; The traditional Harley Sportsters models are the only valid ones and with which you can also make authentic bobber and cafe racery motorcycles, they are easy and cheap to get in Spain.
The final answer is very easy and difficult at the same time; since if we take into account other factors (in addition to the final aesthetics) such as the age of the motorcycle, performance or budget; are other aspects that influence a lot when deciding between an Indian Scout or Harley Davidson Sportster transformation.
Lord Drake Kustoms made the first modification and customization of an Indian Scoutcafe racer style at its facilities in Spain and since then its motorcycle transformation workshops in Malaga and Miami no have stopped customizing motorcycles of this mythical American model.
There are currently three variants of this model: the Scout, the Scout Bobber and the Scout Bobber Twenty. And for us they are undoubtedly the most customizable motorcycle model of the Indian brand; Equivalent to Harley Davidson Sportster models.
For Francisco Alí Manén (owner of Lord Drake Kustoms in Spain and the United States) the basic Indian Scout is the most recommended if you are going to carry out a very radical transformation of the motorcycle and especially that this custom modification includes the change of the original wheels … for example for a set of RC Components rims incorporating a 240 rear wheel for Indian Scout.
However, if you do not plan to change the original wheels of the motorcycle, Fran Manén recommends the Scout Bobber Twenty model, since this model has spoked wheels, which unlike alloy wheels, are the most versatile for their look for any Cafe racer or bobber transformation style.
In terms of motorcycle customization styles, Indian Scouts(regardless of the model used) are perfect for making Bobber bikes and even Cafe Racer bikes with a very sporty air.
But despite being a good motorcycle base to transform into a cafe racer or bobber, over the last few years, we have observed in our motorcycle transformation workshop in Malaga that the owners of these American custom bikes prefer to make the modification and customization of an Indian Scoutalmost always with Bobber style, with a hanging single-seater seat and a wide rear wheel.
At LDK, we defend the idea that although it is a perfect motorcycle to make a bobber, you can get a spectacular cafe racer and even other types of custom motorcyclestyles; since the potential of the Scout is enormous when it comes to customizing a motorcycle.
What we are very clear about is that the transformation of Indian Scout in Spain, whatever style it may be, is going to become one of the most popular motorcycle transformations in the future.
The increase in sales of motorcycles of the prestigious American brand in Spain and especially the increase in demand for customizations and transformations of Indian motorcycles that we have had in recent years in our cafe racer and custom workshop, has led us to expand our parts catalog and accessories for Indian considerably.
Thanks to Lord Drake Kustoms, it also has facilities in Miami (USA), our company has direct access to all North American manufacturers and distributors of any type of part or spare part for Indian motorcycles.
The most demanded parts and accessories for Indian motorcycles when making a cafe racer or bobber modification or transformation of these motorcycles are usually:

Of course we do not forget the different types of adjustment kits and springs for the front suspension of Indian motorcycles.

The best BMW cafe racer of 2021 from Lord Drake Kustoms in Spain, it is something difficult to determine, because there has really been a lot of transformation work on BMW motorcycles during this year, but they have not really been cafe racer-style BMWs, but rather a mix of scrambler and bobber motorcycles.
With the year 2021 almost over, we can say with accuracy that we have beaten our own record in terms of customizing BMW motorcycles in our cafe racer workshop in Spain; since we have carried out the transformation of BMW motorcycles in a total of 23 units.
The most customized BMW models have been, as always, those of the R series (R100, R80 and the occasional R65 or R45 … accompanied by a BMW R1100S and a R1150R) and in terms of styles more than cafe racer motorcycles they have been a combination of bobber and scrambler style.
To the modification work of BMW R series motorcycles that we have carried out, we must add some models of the K series (K100, K75 and K1100) that we have also modified to turn them mainly into BMW cafe racer the occasional scrambler.
All these custom BMW motorcycles in our motorcycle transformation workshop in Malaga throughout the year 2021, have been for clients in Spain, Brazil, the United States and Dubai.
Therefore, when our followers ask us which are the best BMW cafe racer of 2021 that we have customized, we always answer in the same way … all are the best, because each of the BMW transformations that we have carried out has its own charm regardless of whether It’s a BMW Bobberorscrambler or cafe racer.
Although we must recognize that in Lord Drake Kustoms we have a favorite, and it is the BMW cafe racer springer“Survivor” a completely customized BMW R80 and that we believe has made a difference in the sector of customizing BMW motorcycles in Spain and the rest of the world. Proof of this has been the great media coverage it has had since it has been the subject of numerous publications in everyone.
But although this year we have a modification job of a favorite BMW, it does not mean that it is very difficult for us to decide which are the best BMW cafe racer of 2021 from Lord Drake Kustoms.
What we can say is that next year 2022, we hope to once again set a record for the transformation of BMW motorcycles in our cafe racer workshop in Spain and that of course and as we do every year, we will try to surprise our followers with a new BMW cafe racer, scrambler, bobber … or who knows what style, the important thing is that we are able to surprise you!
The transformations of Indian motorcycles in Spain are beginning to stand out in the motorcycle customization sector and for this reason, Lord Drake Kustoms’motorcycle transformation workshop in Malaga started to emerge in Indian modifications, especially in Scout models.
The motorcycles of this mythical American brand are increasingly sold within Spain; And as there are more units of these custom bikes on the market, the demand fortransformations and customizations of Indian motorcycles is also increasing.
The most sought-after motorcycle models to carry out modifications are the Indian Scout, Chief and the FTR 1200; which little by little are stealing more market (especially the Scout models) from their direct competitor, which are the Harley Davidson and especially the traditional Sportstermodels that have already stopped selling in Spain.
At Lord Drake Kustoms we are very clear that the transformations of Indian motorcycles in Spain are not going to stop rising and are going to give a lot to talk about in the world of motorcycle customization.
As for motorcycle customization styles that can be achieved with the Indian, the range is very wide, because depending on the chosen model, cafe racer or bobber transformations can be made with the Scout or Chief models and even flat track or scrambler as is the case. of the FTR1200; without forgetting the Baggers.
For this reason, we have opted to become a workshop specialized in modification and customization of Indian motorcycles in Malaga and Madridto offer this service to all customers in the country who are looking for it.
We have incorporated into our custom workshop all the necessary equipment to become authentic specialists in thecustomization of Indian motorcycles, such as the new DIAG4BIKE Indian diagnosis and remapping system.
We also have a wide range of parts and accessories to customize Indian motorcycles in our online store (www.customizatumoto.com); where you can find from travel accessories for Chief 240 rear wheel akits for Scout models.
Some of the Scout motorcycle customizations that Lord Drake Kustoms has made in his cafe racer workshop in Malaga, have already become a benchmark within the transformations of Indian motorcycles in Spain and in the future we are sure that our LDK brand will become a benchmark in motorcycle modifications of this American brand in the rest of the world.
Making a cafe racer with a Triumphis probably one of the motorcycle transformation jobs in Spain that had the least demand until a few years ago; But it is true that the custom motorcycle market is changing and that the new Triumph motorcyclemodels are making the English brand one of the most demanded brands when it comes to look for a cafe racer motorcycle.
Lord Drake Kustoms, since his beginnings in his custom workshop in Miami, has bet heavily on the modification and transformation of Triumph motorcycles, even in his cafe racer workshop in Spain (which is where he had the least demand for custom Triumph motorcycles)
In particular Francisco Ali Manen (owner of LDK) is passionate about Triumph Bonneville, Thruxton and Scrambler; and this has been the main reason why our company has always defended that making a cafe racer with a Triumph is one of the best choices when it comes to customize a motorcycle.
We have carried out customization work for Triumph cafe racer motorcycles with the Bonneville and Scrambler models mainly. And in the last two years we have noticed how our customers in Spain have increasingly asked us for a Triumph cafe racer.
Our motorcycle transformation workshop in Malaga is specialized in the modification and customization of Triumph motorcycles; and there are many cafe racer, scrambler or brat models that we have transformed for clients in Spain.
When it comes to making a cafe racer-style Triumph, our favorite model is the Bonneville T100 or the T120. Since this motorcycle base to customize or transform, is perfect for building a full-fledged cafe racer, since its geometry and chassis have the necessary characteristics to make a good modification and become a true cafe racer motorcycle.
Specifically, the custom Triumph Bonneville T100 carbureted bikes (along with the Harley Davidson Sportster) are our preferred models when choosing a fun and versatile bike to customize, regardless of whether it is cafe racer, scrambler or brat style.
For example, when our clients have doubts or ask us if we would choose a BMW cafe racer or a Triumph, our answer is resounding: a cafe racer style Triumph … by age, performance, versatility and price.
But above all, the demand has not stopped growing, thanks to the officially licensed Harley mechanics with more than 15 years of experience that we have incorporated into the Lord Drake Kustoms staff in Spain.
Until now, many people thought that we only make transformations of Harley Davidson motorcycles in our workshop in Malaga, but it is not like that.
