Customs R18

Half that colour on mine via dealership. Didn’t go the whole way as wanted to preserve some of the original.

Beautifu!

R18 is an excellent canvas for creativity. That’s impressive.

If you don’t mind how much does something like that cost?

The paint came in at £900.00 via the dealer. Could have got it cheaper elsewhere but in removing and re fitting the tank they damaged a small seal on the fuel supply. If it had been done elsewhere there might have been a bun fight on who was responsible.

From FaceBook :

The guys at Garcia Moto in Raleigh had a R18 painted in a facsimile of a vintage Daytona Orange R90S. Obviously the colors aren't close, but by gosh it works!

That looks awesome. But I couldn’t get my wife to ride in a sidecar if my life depended on it!

This is where I think, yeah, probably best to just get a convertible.
