A Brazilian BMW K100 Cafe Racer With A CVT Transmission For Disabled Riders
From the minute it hit the custom scene, the BMW K100 has been an underdog. With a brick-like motor, overly angled bodywork and a kinked subframe, it's a far less appealing option than the more handsome R-series boxer. But that hasn't stopped it from becoming a surprisingly popular choice. The key lies in how you customize the K100. If your strategy is to shoehorn it into a traditional build.

That ugly two-tier two-seat seat isn't compatible with a Cafe Racer transformation. The chassis of the BMW K100 is the same as that of the BMW K75 and we are going to cut it where I indicate in the drawing. From there we will weld a flat subframe in which to install the seat of our choice. Cut-off limit point on a BMW K100 or BMW K75.

BMW K100 "Apollo" by Ruby Cafe. In 1982, BMW introduced their first liquid-cooled four-cylinder motorcycle engine in the K100 — a quantum leap forward from the air-cooled flat-twin "airheads" for which they were known. Uniquely, the new engine was mounted on its side in the motorcycle's frame, so that the crankshaft was on the right.

Together the 4 artisans of Mans Custom Worx have just completed their first collaborative project, the aptly named 'Number 1'. Number 1 was built on a 1989 BMW K100 platform. The team's goal was to create an agile, sleek BMW cafe racer. This was no mean feat considering the K100 was the Bavarian's grand tourer offering of the eighties.

The BMW K100 is not a motorcycle that one usually associates with cafe racers, or customs of any sort for that matter. The bike itself is a fascinating piece of BMW Motorrad history and surprisingly they remain quite cheap in many markets, despite their recent ascent to vintage status and the huge popularity of the German marque's earlier air-cooled models.

None more so than their latest bike, this 1986 BMW K100 cafe racer. The guys at RetroRides are very familiar with this type of Bavarian.

Had plenty of bikes over the years but always fancied a K100 after a ride on a friends in the mid 80's. After loads of fast road bikes I decided I needed a change and just wanted something engineered well, reliable and shaft drive, so.
