BMW - 1992 - R80 Brat Tracker

Saturday, July 28, 2012
The R65's bigger, badder brother from the same mudda is a whole lot of bike! A big bulky 800cc boxer engine with big bulky fairings, makes for an all round chunky German. That is until you hit it with the customising wand stripping it right back until you sit there thinking ####... how big can this engine look. With alot of people taking the nip and tuck Cafe Racer treatment to these Germans our friend Nicholas Damen wanted to do something similar but different so he aimed for a mixture of Flat Tracker & Brat to create zee beautiful machine we have before you.


Tell us about yourself:
My names Nicholas Damen im 29 and I live in Hobart Tasmania im an Electrician who likes to make surf films in my spare time www.lumavisuals.com
When faced with the decision from you old man you can have $3000 cash from your inheritance or you can have my BMW r80 what do you do?
Take the bmw r80 and customize it.
Can you tell us abit about the history of the bike?
My dad, Alex has had bikes all his life and bought the BMW around 10 years ago, he had it set up mainly for touring, complete with panniers, crash bars, fairing etc. Id always liked the big awkward looking cylinder heads on beemers and had always one day planned on getting one. I started out wanting to build a café racer but after researching parts and spares I soon realised the BMW café racer had been done many times over and done so well. So I decided to try and do something a little different, I guess ive ended up with a street tracker cross Brat?



Tell us abit about your motorcycling experience:
My first bike was a 1982 Suzuki RM80, I bought it for $400 dollars when I was 13 and Dad and myself stripped it down and rebuilt the thing right to the last bolt. I’m so grateful my Father spent this time teaching me valuable skills on repairing and restoring things.
Recently a group of my friends had recently also purchased bikes to customize and fix up, I guess were I ended up was a mould of their feed back and some features or styles on stand out bikes or ideas id seen online or around the place. Having a bunch of mates around to help and critique my ideas and thoughts was a really valuable thing.www.thechopkooks.tumblr.com



Can you take us through the modifications done to the bike?
The major changes to the bike at this stage have really only been aesthetical.
I removed the centre stand, side covers panniers, and all the other stuff that makes a beemer comfortable. I cut the rear sub frame and shortened it and made it thinner to suit the nitro heads tuck and roll seat. Removed the central exhaust vase and mufflers and replaced them with Emgo universal reverse cone shortys. The original instrument cluster was removed and replaced with an Acewell 2853 universal speedo. The rims were sand blasted and powder coated matte black and I had a set of firestone deluxes fitted. The front fender is from a local Harley shop and I cut it down and fabricated a mounting bracket to suit. The rear fender and taillight are from Modern Motorcycles in Melbourne. The bars are a set of motocross bars.

"I went for a ride last week and as I walked back to my bike there were two guys checking out my air filter, I thought to myself oh gee what do these old guys want, After a few words I soon discover one of them Is from Germany, he tells me he likes my bike and asks a few questions, then his mate starts to tell me Adrian, the German guy actually designed the Air box and air intake system for this model BMW, he used to work for BMW in Germany as an engineer, After talking to Adrian for a bit I soon discover I've just met a walking BMW tuning encyclopaedia. I’m going to catch up with Adrian again, hopefully go for a ride and tune my bike a little better."

BMW K75 Tatanka

Everyone has their favorite things in life but only a few of us get to enjoy a career working with them. Frank, owner of custom motorcycle workshop Moto Sumisura is one of those lucky ones. Since the age of 6 he has had a love for BMW motorcycles that has had him riding and working on them ever since. Now out of his modest workshop in the North of Italy, Frank is building custom bikes that are causing others to develop that same passion for BMW motorcycles and he's having loads of fun doing it. This bike is the Tatanka 75 and as you can see it's one BMW that's very easy to like.

If we could all take a step back every now and then and have a chuckle at ourselves the world would be a better place. Building custom bikes hasn't come easily though. Frank admits that it has taken him time to develop his craft. Moto Sumisura started out rebuilding old machines and selling them on to turn a profit. Years later and with a portfolio of 8, impressive custom builds under his belt and a cover shot on Italian motorcycle magazine "Rider", he's become somewhat of an expert.

"I take rags and transform them into evening gowns"

The Moto Sumisura "Tatanka 75" started out life as a BMW K75 which at the time of production was labeled as BMW's cheapest motorcycle. Regardless of it's less than flattering "point of difference" the K75 was a solid performer capable of 4.6 second 0-100 times and a top speed of around 120mph (193kmh). This particular K75 was the full fairing, road touring model in electric blue with roaring panther stickers on the front end (perhaps one of ?).

Frank stripped the BMW back to it's bare essentials before rebuilding it in the Street Tracker/Cafe Racer style that has become the trademark of his Moto Sumisura workshop. The only part of the BMW's original bodywork that remains is it's tastefully scalloped tank, now getting all the attention it deserves with a unique metallic bronze and silver paint scheme. The bikes rear end has also lost some bulk with the removal of the entire tail section, giving it a much more compact, stout side profile.

Trimmed fairings, a small headlight with brush guard, gum grips, powder coated rims, low profile indicators and a custom leather clad seat complete the transformation of the BMW. The final product is a much leaner bike that weighs considerably less than it's stock 227kg form. Aside from it now looking about a million times better than how it left the BMW factory 30 years ago, I think you will agree that from the look on Franks face, the bike is now also a lot more fun to ride.
