Luuc Muis of LM Creations has achieved a remarkable feat with the BMW R00, creating an electric motorcycle that maintains the iconic characteristics of vintage motorcycles. Unlike other electric conversions that feature a large battery box where the engine used to reside, the R00 has a bolt-on EV drivetrain that replaces the existing crankcase while keeping the gearbox intact. This allows for a more authentic riding experience, with the ability to shift gears and experience different torque and speed sensations in each gear. The power unit is a 72V motor that can generate up to 20kW peak power and 72 Nm torque, with a max rpm of 7500. The 4.3kW 72V battery pack has a calculated urban range of 80km and weighs just 24kg, while the charger options include 1.8kW and 3.3kW 230V chargers. With its innovative design and attention to detail, the BMW R00 is a true standout in the world of electric motorcycles.

Humble beginnings There are BMW boxers, and then there are BMW boxers. The difference? Well, here goes. Ever since BMW introduced their famous boxer twin configuration back in the 1920’s, they kind of had a reputation of being a bit…dull. That was until they started kicking the competition’s butts in the […]

When I was 18 years old, many many years ago, I saw a Honda CB350F outside a club in Amsterdam. It looked dirty, had chrome wire spoked wheels, a little café racer seat, clubman style handle bar, no mirrors or indicators, no fenders, and a single gauge which was the tachometer. […]

We’re gonna be honest, we are a sucker for lists. More specifically, end-of-the-year-top-5-motorcycle lists! It’s one of those things that we never can seem to get enough of. Whether you’re sitting with your friends or family, or on the workfloor with your colleagues, top 5 lists always add flavour to the […]

BMW R18 – 1800cc cruiser There are moments where you see a picture of a motorcycle, and it doesn’t make you blink or think twice. Something like that happened when we saw the first pictures of the BMW R18 circulating the web; we weren’t too impressed. Another manufacturer that tips its […]

No introduction needed. It is time again for a Top 10 list, and this time we’ve decided to split it up into 2 instalments. Ladies and gentlemen, we would like to present to you, the totally arbitrary, BikeBrewers Top 10 Cafe Racers Hall of Fame: Part 1! 1. BMW R nineT […]

Passionata When we think of Italy we automatically think of tasty food and wine, exotic cars, expensive motorcycles, cappuccino, designer clothes, and temperament. It is safe to say that in Italy, they live their lives in a different flow. It is for that same reason most people fall in love with […]

Strike Two! Some time ago we introduced ARCTOS Collection and their brutal Moto Guzzi V9 Racer. In case you’ve missed, go ahead and read that article first. In the meantime, we have been eagerly waiting to share this other build from the Swiss based outfit. This time, it’s a Honda CB1000R […]

Long run Some of the happiest people on the planet live and work in Hamamatsu, Japan. Yamaha introduced the XJR 1200 in Europe in 1995 and has continued to sell the XJR in Europe until 2016, but not without a few changes throughout the years. Most notably, the XJR got a […]

Running a store from the shed We have been following Ferry Westerlaken for quite some time now. Not so much for his wrenching skills, but more from a business perspective. He runs ace-caferacerparts, an online shop from his hometown Dussen in the Netherlands, where you can buy lots of interesting goodies […]

I hear you think: “A bobber?!”… Let’s just give it a try! Remember the world’s fastest pizza bike, built in Dubai by VR Customs? Well, that build took place last summer, its hardtail design inspired by the beautiful bike you see here, completed just days before the pizza bike build off […]

The Honda CX500 remains of those base bikes that keeps builders inspired. During the last three years, I’ve featured dozens of them. To be honest, in my opinion, there is one bike standing out for me, and that is still Sacha Lakic’s version. Nevertheless, this is a seriously costly machine. But […]

It’s been a while since we’ve heard from Lucky Custom from Argentina, but their Honda VF750 Cafe Racer still is one of the most popular posts here on BikeBrewers. With this machine, they went viral and the bike still pops up all around the interwebs. Today I received some images of their […]
