The BMW R100 R Mystic Receives a Custom Copper Upgrade
Created by French customizer Vincent Degano.
This BMW R100 R Café Racer has received the custom treatment, giving it a sleek copper finish. This one-of-one was created by Vincent Degano, who developed an interest in BMW motorbikes because his father rode them as part of his job in the French police. Degano usually only works on Scrambler models but this time wanted to work on a Café Racer, choosing the R100 R as his vehicle of choice.
Degano first etched clean and painted the engine and wheels black. He then sandblasted the rest of the bike before using a custom copper powder coat and faux copper paint to cover the bodywork. In addition to this he added a new axel and 2010 speed triple forks.
Take a look through the gallery to see the vehicle for yourself. Elsewhere, back in November BMW, introduced its latest car – the i8 Roadster.
