Custom R1100GS inspired by bull



r1100gscustom1.jpgNow this is a proper, old school custom. Builder Klaus Beutler based it on an R1100GS, which, we suppose, makes it some sort of supermoto. In the finest tradition of many a homemade bike before it, function and comfort are thrown out the window in the name of style. We admire Beutler’s commitment to his theme — not a part looks catalog purchased or fails to gel with the components around it. The tail unit looks painful but does incorporate the rear lights, though we’d worry about the miniscule hugger flinging all sorts of detritus straight at your backside.
