Steam Punk Beemer info?

Uncle Ernie · 01-26-2010, 08:16 AM

I was wondering if anyone here knows more about this, or has any more / better pictures;

Silver King · 01-26-2010, 09:15 AM

That tank!!! It would rip your nuts clean off.

Are planning to drop by his house and punch him in the face for doing that to that poor bike?

criminaldesign · 01-26-2010, 02:35 PM

kudos for doing it to a beemer.

... seen the bike here in Texas several times. Someone at a bike meet mentioned the owner lives in the Austin area.

probably the coolest /5 Ive ever seen

Mista Vern · 01-26-2010, 05:40 PM

Is that a trials bike?

Uncle Ernie · 01-26-2010, 07:43 PM

I was thinking flat track? You don't see many BMW flat trackers for some reason...

I kind of like it. I've been getting into this steampunk thing. It's sort of an upbeat Goth thing. Totally form over function- but fun.
Anyway, I'm hoping to see some better pictures.

bgoodsoil · 01-26-2010, 10:54 PM

it's not like /5s are rare bikes. If somebody wants to chop one up to make something cool then more power to 'em. I like it.

on the other hand, there's a special place in hell for guys that chop up old harleys

I think steampunk is neat too.

I think the beemer airhead is probably the most steam-tastic mill to use for one of those. All in all it's a pretty good interpretation of steampunk.

I like the use of I beam and the simple tank. Needs moar brass.

Any pics of the right side? I'd like to see the 5' long driveshaft and whether it's inside a swingarm or not.
