Based on a BMW R100 RS from 1979 the Fuel R100 Strasse (“Street” in german) was commissioned by Pablo, an enthusiast of classic motorcycles, restless traveler and fan of Apple products.
He dreamed with a motorcycle where aesthetics have more relevance than performances a bike to get around the streets of Barcelona and even for some of the dirt tracks that you can find around. A bike to look at and be seen.
The basic idea in terms of design was to get a motorcycle with simple and clean lines where each part of the bike was very defined by color or materials so for example, the tank and fenders are a block, the engine was totally painted for getting another visual block. the chassis and subframe in sand color it’s another one ...
The tank was a very important part for the look of the bike so we made a
lot of tests using diferents technics to get an aged metal aspect
finally achieved using bitumen of Judea plus a clear coat for
protection.A powerful and small lithium battery was hidden in the air filter box to get a cleaner design ... on the right side of the box a little battery disconnector was adapted and installed.
The headlight is from a classic motorcycle trial, a powerful Motogadget speedometer was installed and the ignition was relocated on the side.The rear taillight was installed inside the seat for a cleaner look.
On one side of the bike a small metal case build in Poland gives a military look at the bike.
In a word, a motorcycle to get lost with style through the dark streets of Berlin city itself.
