Shed Regular Ed brought in his custom BMW R80 Desert Sled for us to take a gander at. Several years ago Ed tried to get his dream bike built, choosing Steven Bentley from Dust Motorcycles for the job. After realising the build wasn't quite in his budget, the idea was put on the shelf. Fast forward to 2018 and Ed saw Dust Motorcycles had built this brilliant minimal R80. Turns out Steven liked the idea so much, he'd gone and built it anyway. At this point, Ed couldn't resist, and the rest is history...

@JonathanVuillemin 5 лет назад

Thing of beauty! I ve been considering a R80 for a long time. This one is another exemple of how great they can look under than hands of a good builder.

@carlarthur4442 5 лет назад

Lovely looking machine, this looks like it's an every day bike like the tick over and the raspy note out of the pipes , well done.

If the R nine T appropriated the aesthetics of this example, I’d be in the showroom with my hard earned cash.

@richardallan455 5 лет назад

Precisely,when it has an old school look, and the aesthetics are right, you get the buyers.

Nicely done. If Indiana Jones had a bike it would be this one with a sidecar attached. Lol.

@steveedwards4495 4 года назад

Amazing g what you can do with loads of money. Prefer the shed builds on next to no budget.

@tortron 3 года назад

You could do this bike in your shed tho, theres nothing that would need any crazy tools. But i agree, a custom bike is one thing, but one thats been built by the owner is just that bit more special

@justusramisch4920 3 года назад

Yes the bike looks really nice. I'm also the kind that is into classic motorbikes from the 50s to early 70s. But with a front tire that chunky, I'm afraid it will handle like crap on the road.

@peterk2455 7 месяцев назад

It's perfectly ok to ride from the small bedsit of inner London, to the nearest Pret a Manger for that spiced lentil and chickpea wrap with an iced chocolate chai latte.

@barryolaith 5 лет назад

From 4:07 to 4:15 the usual rocking on blipping the throttle due to the flywheel inertia effect that comes with a longitudinal crank design is apparent, but not one comment on it because it's a BMW and not a Guzzi. No one speculates on the effect on the handling (bugger all) but it's a flaw when it's a Guzzi. Strange. (To understand where I'm coming from you have to have read every journos review of a Guzzi from 1975 or thereabouts to the present day).

4 года назад

I noticed no effect on handling on my BMW from engine torque and suspect the same from guzzi. in the US, my home, we have "motorcycles" (I consider them to be bad jokes) called Boss Hogs that have 5.3l engines mounted longitudinally. any torque effect should lay them right on their sides if it were a real problem.

They have this new invention that makes riding motorcycles so very much better for your self and those around you: mufflers.

@lajjvo 5 лет назад

Nice bike, but that rear fender support looks tatty as fook. Should have been welded on at the end of the frame rails.

@mort7987 4 года назад

As a German who has to follow stupid exhaust noise laws, it always amazes me how you brits get away with straight-piping your machines and are allowed to go on the street with it

The exhaust just does not look good my friend. Probably should rethink this design. It’s a burner!

@jupiterjohnson7191 5 лет назад

This is trash! Hate to say, the tank isn’t standard the sub frame has been completely altered! I never get why people bastardize, a classic! Keep it standard add your creature comforts; and updates! It’s like remixing a classic song! Why???

@kevinmurtagh3434 5 лет назад

not exactly a classic. they were way to slow, MPG was poor and they were murder to get on the center stand.

@jupiterjohnson7191 5 лет назад

BS, the BMW R80 was the precursor to the GS80 which won the 81 Paris-Dakar! The engine alone remained unchanged for 60 years! Not everyone wants to hop on a motorcycle and go 120 MPH! Some people just want to cruise and get to a destination with precision! Do your research!

@p.istaker8862 4 года назад

Comparable to buying a hammer, then cutting off three quarters of the handle

@eduardwalhout1740 4 года назад

So why are you looking at custom bikes anyway? Go dig up the old brochure. Have fun.

@lolly166541 4 года назад

@@jupiterjohnson7191 "Some people just want to cruise and get to a destination with precision!" and some people want to do what ever they want with their bikes. This must come as a shocking realization for you.
