GTM does a much better custom than this

I agree, I think that Todd's creations look better and offer more difference from stock. Roll on a lottery win
Todd was tricking out his Jackel years before any of this became the latest fad.

At least they didn't put knobbies on it like every other 'custom builder'...
Thanks Michael. I’m always at a loss when projects like this get such traction in big online outlets like autoevolution. I got my bikes featured in most of the biggest here, Cycle World, MotorCyclist, Cruiser and Motorcycle.com, but none of the others were interested. BikeExif, though the owner is a (former?) Guzzisti from New Zealand, was an absolute asshat to me. He told me to reshoot everything as “dark background images don’t work.” They feature them all the time. Oh well. Onward.
I think that is as ugly as ass and cat food, and would never be seen on it...

To be honest that would look nicer in RnineT form. In it's current form it's a pile of dog poo (in my opinion of course)
All BMW's are "Dog Poo" They asked me to be a salesman at the shops a few times. I would ask the potential customer "Do you want a 1/2 of a Volkswagen or 1/4 of a V8?"
Ummm…seriously?
S1000RR - Unrivaled king of the current world super bikes. Razors edge in every regard. Fastest, most powerful, lightest. A world class piece of equipment.
R1250RT - The RT platform has been the “Gold Standard” of a long distance high speed tourer since its invention in the 1978. The RT is the most used police motorcycle platform in the entire world and has been for many decades.
I could cite more but not necessary…
Everybody is entitled to their opinion. Yours is maybe shared by <1% of the motorcycling population.
BMW makes excellent motorcycles. They have had global sourcing quality issues here and there, but without a doubt, they are a million miles from “Dog Poo”.
To bring this back around, the OP was talking about the "build" above.
Oh yes, I know. It's definately BUTT UGLY but then again the RnineT is no looker in the first place. I am convinced that this modified version is a completely unrideable hack-fest. Seriously I don't know who would buy that disgusting thing but to blanket call BMW "Dog Poo" is simply just not in the realm of real world facts...
Moving on...
