Was just reading about a kit that transforms your R1200R into the 70's R75 that you know you really wanted.
Check out those Krauser lookey likey panniers

I'd love to see a cafe racer conversion for the R1100/1200S.
Something like this perhaps ?

Love them both, nicely done. :) Only thing is the telelever on the bottom pic should be black as it dosent need the eye drawn to it.

Not to sure about the cafe racer which would look better with the telelever bar bright yellow.
The R75 style is nice...but not for me.

I might just put a R1200R in my garage actually, the standard Black classic would do me.

Whilst on the subject of cool Beemers.
This is just about the most stunning thing I have ever laid eye's on.

Didn't BMW do a retro version of the R1100R towards the end of that model's run? Available in black or cream with lining around the tank if I remember correctly.

There's also a G/S PD kit for a 1200GS:

Good bike that.
The 850 was sweet.
More fun than the 1100 I thought.
