We leave you with the text extract.
The wolf king … Mardanis
Sexual debauchery, Christian clothes, eating habits that included alcohol consumption … Mohamed Ibn Mardanis (Nicknamed the wolf king of Murcia) became famous on both sides of the border for his lifestyle and if he had reigned in these times, I would probably have ridden this BMW R1200S, recently finished by Lord Drake Kustoms.
Maybe it was, the most fun and exciting project of LDK last year for the spectacular result and especially for being a BMW base not very common so far in the world of customization.
Francisco Ali (owner of LDK), received a call from Fernando Cuello in which he commented that Lord Drake Kustoms had been recommended as the right company to make his dream come true: A BMW and unique and brutal.
In a later meeting the project was finalized and finally it was decided to use a BMW R1200S from 2007 as a base. Fernando’s instructions to Francisco to make the bike were clear and strict: matt black and orange, a huge deposit, Cafe Racer style but with Tacos wheels and as simple as possible.
Work began and halfway with the tank almost finished Francisco noticed that it was too big to paint everything in matt black and that you should add some orange graphic, called Fernando to explain it and from there came the idea of putting a name . “Mardanis,” said Fernando, and then explained the origin of it; After the conversation and without having seen the bike yet, Fernando’s expectations multiplied, he was so excited about the project that he decided he would not see it until it was finished and then he would make a big party in his honor.
When the day finally came when the “Mardanis” unveiled its owner and a group of friends, it was at the spectacular party that was held on the farm where the ruins of the castle of Mohamed Ibn Mardanis “The Wolf King” , in Monteagudo (Murcia).[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
