Yikes!  They'd look more at home on a '53 Buick.

Too embarrassed to list this "no-expense-spared custom work-of-art" as a cafe racer.

$18 K! yikes! you could buy four or five of my bikes for that kind of money, maybe six on a good day, and they ALL would have a "numbers-matching 750cc BMW triple cylinder engine with a five-speed transmission."

Maybe it's the "charge a lot and people will think it's worth a lot" mentality.

Here's some information about one of the tires on that contraption.

"numbers-matching"

I have no idea what this means on a K75. I know that some bikes used to come with an engine serial number that was the same as the frame number but that's not the case on K bikes.  I think that practice might have gone away when VINs got standardized.

that seat makes my butt hurt just looking at it, but  i guess this is  "art" and not really meant to be ridden.

Very concise proof that whoever concocts these contraptions is clueless

haha, I'm sure a Tube Type 4 Ply Polyester tire is going to make this handle much better than stock. I just got back from the grocery store thinking what a great job the fatherland did on my R11 suspension. Orka is remarkably flickable for such a heavy bike. Super smooth on my crappy rural road too.
