BMW K1 RACER 1.2

BMW K1 RACER 1.2

BMW K1 RACER 1.2

Introducing the second unit of the K1 RACER series… The BMW K1 RACER 1.2, a custom bike with a very sporty look that breaks away from the styles used to transform motorbikes such as the BMW K100. This project has been carried out at Lord Drake Kustoms, a customisation and transformation workshop for BMW motorbikes in Spain (Malaga).

ELEGANT AND AGGRESSIVE

Francisco Alí Manen (owner of LDK), was commissioned by a customer who had already seen the first BMW K1 RACER, a NEORACER style transformation as defined by Fran himself.

This customisation work on a BMW motorbike is one of the most impressive that has been done on a k100 model to date in LDK’s motorbike modification workshop.

Transformed from start to finish, it is not the usual modified BMW K100, it is an elegant, aggressive and above all unique custom bike.

MODIFICATIONS

Following in the footsteps of the first unit of this series of custom bikes, Fran and his team at Lord Drake Kustoms the first thing they did as soon as they arrived at their custom bike workshop was to completely dismantle it.

The work on the BMW K1 RACER 1.2 started with the installation of an upside-down fork, the rims were kept as original, then came the tyres, discs and brake calipers. Of course it had to be fitted with half handlebars and then we proceeded to remove the entire subframe and cut and modify part of the chassis to begin to shape what would be the new rear of this spectacular BMW K100 transformed.

The fuel tank has also been kept original. A new rear shock absorber with WP air bottle has been installed, a new subframe has been manufactured and a new rear pillion including seat with custom upholstery has been installed.

All this work has been accompanied by a Motogadget Pro digital odometer and set back foot controls for BMW K100.

The modified exhaust, the whole central exhaust manifold handcrafted with a stainless steel tailpipe gives a brutal sound to the BMW K1 RACER 1.2.

In addition, and like its predecessor, it is fitted with a V-Rod headlight, Motogadget front turn signals and 3:1 rear turn signals and other details in all the endless modifications that this custom bike created by Lord Drake Kustoms with a BMW K100 base has.

MARTINI GRAPHICS

The paintwork is inspired by “Martini” graphics and colours with a graphite grey background and all with a gloss finish.

VROD 260 ARMY

VROD 260 ARMY

VROD 260 ARMY

“Elegant and aggressive” are the two best words to describe the “VROD 260 ARMY”, a bike customised by Lord Drake Kustoms in his custom bike and Harley Davidson workshop in Malaga (Spain).

BASED ON A NIGHTROD SPECIAL

This time the owner of this Harley Davidson Nightrod Special, is a regular customer of Francisco Alí Manen (owner of LDK); who this time went from having ordered a BMW R65 bobber scrambler previously; to ask for this custom Harley marvel.

The idea is that this custom bike, as well as being spectacular, should not be too uncomfortable to ride as happens with these models when they are fitted with a wide rear wheel kit of 300 or more for VROD, Nightrod or Muscle models… so it was decided to fit a wide rear wheel of 260 and no more… hence the name “VROD 260 ARMY”.

MODIFICATIONS

Airbox, rear mudguard, front mudguard, handlebars, turrets, odometer relocation, number plate bracket, LED indicators and lights, seats, horn covers, spoke covers, exhaust tailpipes, are some of the parts of this custom bike that have been modified or manufactured for this Harley Davidson.

MILITARY STYLE

As for the colours chosen for the paintwork of this transformed VROD, they have been chosen by its owner, who had them very clear from the beginning and so he let Fran Manen know, who together with his work team at Lord Drake Kustoms thought it was a good choice of colour for its military aspect and not very seen in the works of Vrod transformations with wide wheel kit, which are usually mostly black.

On the airbox of this vrod, “HARLEY DAVIDSON” is simply airbrushed in military style lettering and a few small red details (such as the thread on the seat upholstery) have been included to make the whole thing stand out.

WORLDWIDE SHIPPING

Surely, this “VROD 260 ARMY” will not leave indifferent the people who see it passing through the streets and roads of Galicia, where it will have its new home after being sent by Lord Drake Kustoms with its service of shipping and transport of motorbikes all over the world.

BMW R100 GRAY BROWN

This bobber scrambler style bike is called BMW R100 “GRAY BROWN” and is another of the customizations of BMW motorbikes that Lord Drake Kustoms has made in his workshop in Malaga (Spain).

A STYLISH SCRAMBLER BOBBER

The team at LDK have once again excelled in their work with classic BMW motorbikes, and with this R100, they have once again transformed a BMW into a stunning and elegant scrambler bobber.

This time Francisco Alí Manen, owner of LDK, has chosen to make a BMW transformed with very common elements in this kind of motorbike customizations, but the result has been brutal thanks to the combination of elements and colours used.

MODIFICATIONS

The motogadget odometer, together with the branded LED indicators on the ends of the Biltwell grips, give the bike a contemporary feel and the Continetal TKC 80 tyres give it that scrambler look.

SPORTSTER S 1250 RH

This is another unit of the new Harley Davidson Sportster S 1250 RH customized by the team of Francisco Ali Manen, owner of Lord Drake Kustoms in his Harley conversion workshop in Malaga (Spain) from where they export custom motorcycles to customers all over the world.

A NEW AIR

Coming from a customer near Lisbon, Portugal, where LDK picked up the bike with its own pick-up and delivery service, this Sportster S arrived totally original and its owner wanted to give it a new look and restyle it to get more out of the features of this Harley Davidson..

MODIFICATIONS

The first idea was to modify the rear, especially the license plate bracket, and to put some kind of screen or dome on it. Fran Manen got to work with his team and the result was a restyling in this Sportster S 1250 RH which has been fitted with a café racer bike screen, a new tracker handlebar, new minimalist LED turn signals and a round LED headlight.

In addition, the odometer has been relocated to the front of the handlebars instead of its original location.

At the rear, the license plate bracket and all the lighting have been modified, and the seat has been upholstered with double red thread in diamond shapes.

BLUE ROTHMANS

But the most significant change in this restyling has been the paint job inspired by the colors of racing cars with graphics of the Rothmans tobacco brand.

OTHER FEATURES

In terms of performance (in addition to aesthetic changes) it should be noted that in this custom bike, the Lord Drake Kustoms team has installed a spectacular complete 2:1 exhaust system from the brand Dr. Jekill & Mr. Hyde homologated, for the Harley Davidson Sportster S 1250 RH, which in addition to sound regulation has a beautiful carbon fiber manifold protector.

SPORTSTER NIGHTCRAWLER

SPORTSTER NIGHTCRAWLER

SPORTSTER NIGHTCRAWLER

Elegance, aggressiveness and above all innovation are the best words to describe this new work called SPORTSTER NIGHTCRAWLER. A Harley Davidson of customizer Francisco Ali Manen and his company Lord Drake Kustoms transformed in his motorcycle modification workshop in Malaga (Spain).

A MIX OF STYLES

Fran Manen wanted to achieve with this custom Harley Sportster a bike transformation that was totally different from what had been seen so far. And this is the result: a custom bike that combines a mix of styles such as cafe racer with more classic elements such as some details of bobber bikes.

MODIFICATIONS

Of course this SPORTSTER NIGHTCRAWLER had to be elegant and, in this case, rather than classic or retro, it had to be sporty and aggressive. And to achieve this, elements such as the S&S dual inlet air filter, the keel or spoiler and the headlight accompanied by a small dome have been added.

The typical Harley belt and pulley drive has also been replaced with a Sportster chain, chainring and sprocket kit. Inverted tracker handlebar to give a more racing touch, along with the two minimalist fenders and custom side covers.

At the rear, in addition to the handcrafted license plate holder for Harley Davidson models, we highlight the combination of more modern elements such as air shocks, with more classic elements such as the bobber-style spring seat for Sportster.

The Koso odometer for Sportster models has been repositioned on the side, Motogadget LED turn signals have been installed on the handlebar ends, biltwell grips and to top it all off, a pair of fat-spoke wheels that mount a 180 tire on the rear.

BLACK AND GOLD

Finally Lord Drake Kustoms has dressed this brutal custom Harley Davidson with a spectacular paint job in which they have combined gloss black, satin black and matte black with various details and pinstriping in gold.

SPRINGER BOBBER CREAM

SPRINGER BOBBER CREAM

SPRINGER BOBBER CREAM

If we want to define the words BEAUTY and ELEGANCE with a custom bike, this Harley Davidson called “SPRINGER BOBBER CREAM” and customized by Francisco Alí Manén and his team at Lord Drake Kustoms, may be the best definition.

Fran Manen (owner of LDK) and his team, have created this beautiful bobber bike in his workshop of Harley Davidson motorcycles transformations in Velez Malaga (Spain).

A SPRINGER CLASSIC BASE

The work was for a regular customer who is very fond of classic motorcycles and retro styles, so when Fran Manen received the order he was very clear that this Harley transformed had to have a retro look but above all very elegant.

The base used has been a Harley Davidson Softail Springer Classic 2006, and on it have been made numerous modifications to reach this Harley Bobber.

MODIFICATIONS

The first thing after disassembling everything, was to modify and adapt a new fuel tank Sportster penaut type and lower the suspensions (both the rear and the front suspension Springer type). Next, the rear fender and its brackets, the license plate bracket and the seat base were fabricated. Subsequently, a drag bar with Biltwell turrets was installed and a new front fender and brackets were fabricated.

With this we had the general line of the “Springer Bobber Cream” almost finished, but something was missing and were the details … no less important for being small …. and for this the first thing was to put a larger diameter rim on the front (the original bike mounts a 16″ rim and a 19″ was installed), the headlight was relocated with a new bracket made by LDK and finally a set of big spoke wheels for Harley was installed along with new matching brake discs in chrome color.

The finishing touches were details such as the LED turn signals, the golden grips upholstered to match the seat, the air filter, the brass ignition cover, custom-made exhaust terminals, handcrafted seat upholstered with leather used for Porsche Cayenne, etc, etc, etc.

CREAM AND GOLD

And finally, the painting. The client was very clear that he wanted a cream or off-white tone as the main color and some gold details. After several color tests a cream off-white tone was chosen, which Fran Manen combined with black gloss with gold pearl and gold pinstriping and lettering in gold tones that have given the stunning look to this Harley Davidson “Springer Bobber Cream”.
