Topic: modifications

Ok, I saw this pic (one with the rider) in another post, found more of the same pics of this bike at

Ok, I really..... like what has been done to this bike
Now aside from the BCR Tank and seat (armadilo model), what else has been done to achieve this look?
- Rearsets of some sort
- clip on handle bars
- smaller turn signals
- end bar mirrors
- aftermarket mini gauges?
- aftermarket headlight bucket?
- chopped front and rear fenders, painted mat black
- rims and spokes painted mat black?
- removal of fork ears by headlight?
- battery and electronics relocation to under seat hump"
- airfilter changed to pods

Can anyone describe any specifics for me if you recognize some pieces?
I just like to imagine a "probably not going to happen" goal, it keeps me motivated in a way

Why not ask Benjie? He's pretty busy now (hopefully with my tank  ), but he's a nice chap.

As far as I can see thers's not many modifications to that bike besides the tank/seat. The rear of the frame has been modified to put the battery under the seatcowl. You'll have to grind off the old brackets for electrics and battery.
Airbox is gone so you'll need pods and rejet accordingly.
Clip-on handlebars and a new tacho?
Rearsets.
The headlight looks stock to me, but with new ears....
The rearfender is removed, what's left is the plastic mudguard, that's stock too...

I'm in the middle of a project like this, so if you have any specific questions send me an email @ info@ivareisma.nl

Looks expensive, though.

So, is the mirror functional? Trying to decide if I want to go this route on my clubs...

On clip-ons, like in the bike pictured, they may work okay, but I tried my bar-ends on a set of clubmans on my 750 and 550 and they were just way too low and to the side to be of much use.  I had to turn my head significantly to be able to see them.  I prefer to have mirrors that only require movement of my eyes.  The bar-ends work great on low rise and drag bars, though.
