all the parts to finish our lightweight Bobber project: R18 Doberman are on the table. If you are curious how the light Bobber of the Holan Heritage Garage project will look like in the end, visit us for the next few days. A few photos to whet your appetite...
what distinguishes our project from other customizers (looking from the front of the motorcycle):
- front fender with old style mount
- old-style front lamp glass
- classic rev counter
- front flashers "buffalo eyes" in old style but with modern technology inside ;)
- mirrors perfectly matched (and safe) to the wide old-style handlebars
- large 24 liter tank from R18 B with tank protection pad Classic
- decorated Heritage tank overlay on a leather belt
- tank emblems
- steel radiator cover
- Black Exhaust Wrap (professional installation)
- classic cylinder covers
- Homage seat with backrest for safety during accelerations ;)
- Handcrafted R18 silencer
- lightweight rear fender with old style mount
- license plate holder with a specially dedicated old-style rear lamp but with modern technology inside ;)
- micro-rear blinkers hidden from the bottom of the frame
Besides, for our Doberman we added more black color

Update:
An interesting fact is the proprietary solution to the Homage seat - a small frame with a backrest (for those who like fast acceleration) and mounting points for a roller or trapper blanket
👍

The solution offers several advantages:
- rider safety (backrest)
- functionality: there is space for a little extra luggage
- aesthetics - thanks to covering the hole under the seat, the rider now does not look like he was riding on a stool
😉
