VTR Customs BMW R1300GS…

The BMW GS has solidified its position as the ultimate adventure bike, making it a highly coveted motorcycle in the current market. Enthusiasts praised the all-new R 1300 GS upon its reveal for its enhanced performance, upgraded technology, and lighter weight, setting it apart from its predecessor.

Initially, the R 1300 GS is a highly proficient vehicle. With various desirable enhancements available in the aftermarket, many GS riders opt for minor performance tweaks. However, have you considered a complete custom build?

While adventure bikes may not be the most popular option for custom builds, VTR Motorrad, a Swiss workshop known for their expertise in BMW vehicles, challenges this notion. Introducing the R 1301 – a unique and unconventional adventure bike.

The R 1301 is rumoured to be the first custom-build crafted from the brand-new adventure bike. It certainly catches attention with its striking design, embodying various styles of motorcycling. Its bold bodywork and agile appearance evoke a supermoto feel, while its slender form gives it the aura of a naked streetfighter.

Despite its changes, the R 1301 maintains its identity as an ADV with its continued use of a 19-inch front wheel. The tinted windscreen remains at the front, but the handguards and mirrors have been removed to create a more road-oriented appearance. Additionally, the front fender has been shortened for a sportier aesthetic. At the rear, the R 1301 sports a custom tail section reminiscent of a sport or naked bike.

Featuring forged aluminum wheels and Metzeler M9 RR tires, the R 1301 exudes a fierce attitude that speaks to more than just its appearance. An Akrapovic exhaust adds to the impressive features while BMW’s iconic M colors adorn the bike. The custom creation is completed with a supermoto-style saddle designed by Yves Knobel, a renowned Swiss saddler.

If you fancy this, be prepared to set aside another £15k, on top of the original purchase price…
