Short Description / Project Description

In our workshop, we completely rebuilt a BMW R80 RT from 1993. The machine with Monolever swingarm was disassembled, redesigned, and rebuilt according to the customer’s wishes. All components were overhauled and harmonized visually. The goal was a modern bobber with classic charm, fully customizable and suitable for daily use.

Analysis / Initial Condition

The base was perfect: low mileage, running engine, no defects. Only signs of age were present, and the bike was ready to be technically and visually refreshed.

Work / Actions Taken

• Complete disassembly, inspection, cleaning, and pre-assembly (Rolling Chassis)
• Bobber concept development in close coordination with the customer
• Procurement of replacement and wear parts, individual modifications implemented
• Frame modifications: short tail (single-seater), shortened telescopic fork, new rear shock
• Installation of cast wheels, handlebars, fenders, color concept for frame, engine, fork
• New electronics: indicators, speedometer, regulator for modern batteries, onboard network with smartphone control
• Customer-requested customization options integrated

The work combines classic appearance with modern technology, functional upgrades, and individual design.

Conclusion

The BMW R80 RT is a youngtimer for daily use, modernized and technically reliable. Visually altered yet instantly recognizable. A classic motorcycle with modern technology and individual character.
