When art meets engineering, something extraordinary happens—and the BMW R nineT “Project 801” is living proof.

Built by the visionary team at Zillers Motorcycles in Russia, this one-of-a-kind machine completely reimagines the classic R nineT, pushing the boundaries of both design and performance.

Wrapped in a fully custom body that blends sci-fi aesthetics with aerodynamic function, this motorcycle looks like it was pulled straight from a cyberpunk dream. The matte red finish with raw black details creates a bold visual impact, while the integrated front fairing and bodywork flow seamlessly into the tank and tail section.

Under the sculpted panels beats the soul of the original R nineT—a reliable air-cooled boxer engine—now paired with a custom exhaust system and bespoke components that elevate the riding experience. The bike also features CNC-machined parts, a lowered suspension setup, and massive disc brakes by Brembo for precise stopping power.

Zillers didn’t just build a motorcycle—they built a statement. The “Project 801” isn’t just a ride, it’s a radical expression of craftsmanship, creativity, and the future of custom motorcycle design.

Zillers Motorcycles, the renowned custom workshop from Russia, has once again pushed the limits of creativity and engineering with their striking concept build: the BMW R9T ‘Project 801’.

This radical custom bike blends futuristic design with high-performance craftsmanship, delivering a ride that’s as bold as it is beautiful.

The Project 801 features a sleek matte blue finish that enhances its sculpted bodywork and aggressive stance. Every panel has been redesigned to give the R9T a unique, aerodynamic silhouette—almost resembling a high-tech machine from a sci-fi movie. The flowing lines, minimalistic touches, and fully enclosed body make it stand out from anything else on the road.

One of the most eye-catching details is the set of golden wheels, which create a perfect contrast against the matte blue paint. They not only bring a touch of luxury to the build, but also highlight Zillers’ attention to detail and sense of balance in color and texture.

Zillers Motorcycles didn’t just focus on aesthetics—Project 801 is also packed with performance upgrades and custom features, including a reworked suspension, handcrafted exhaust system, and futuristic lighting integrated seamlessly into the body.

This is not just a custom motorcycle. It’s a rolling piece of art that redefines what a BMW R9T can become when vision and craftsmanship come together without compromise.

In the Netherlands, Powerbrick Performance has crafted the BMW K1100RS Cafe ‘Vengeance‘, a marvel that boasts significant modifications aimed at enhancing its performance and aesthetics (Cafe racer style). For inquiries, they can be contacted via email at [email protected]

Under the guidance of Tim Somers, the shop boss, this custom motorcycle transcends mere power upgrades. It’s a thoughtful effort to establish a more direct and responsive connection between the rider’s hand and the rear wheel. Notable modifications include meticulously ported heads, optimized timing facilitated by an NGK ignition system, and the conversion to a hydraulic clutch.

The motorcycle showcases a range of enhancements, such as new RC Racing aluminum radiators paired with SamcoSport silicon hoses for improved performance and style. The inline-four motor of each bike features a lineup of DNA filters, complemented by the installation of new Bosch EV14 injectors. Exhaust-wise, each K1100 sports a pie-cut stainless steel four-into-one system from MAD Exhausts, accompanied by a Powerbrick muffler.

Powerbrick has re-engineered the electrical system with a Bluetooth-enabled Motogadget brain, powered by a NOCO Lithium battery and equipped with a Ctek charging point.

TFX Suspension adjustable shocks grace the rear of each K1100. The wheels, custom-fitted billet aluminum pieces from AC Schnitzer initially designed for the BMW R nineT, have been adapted through custom-made adaptors. Brembo components and Venhill brake lines complete the braking systems.

Rather than attempting to alter the distinctive lines of the K1100RS’ fuel tank, Powerbrick chose to customize the rest of the bike’s bodywork to harmonize with it. Standout modifications include new subframes, machined from substantial aluminum billets. Comprising seven parts, these subframes accommodate the custom seat, electronics, a compact rear cowl, and an integrated taillight.

The design precision extends to the minutest details, exemplified by the seat mounting mechanism. The seat seamlessly slides into place under the rear cowl, fastened by two concealed bolts beneath the tank.

Laser and computer-guided production methods were heavily employed, eliminating human errors and ensuring consistency. The right side of bike has been opened up significantly, with only the battery suspended above the engine, made possible by an overhauled wiring system for greater efficiency.

The thoughtfulness extends to the cockpit, fitted with Powerbrick clip-ons, Brembo controls, Motogadget push buttons, and bar-end turn signals. Powebrick rear-set foot controls sit at a lower position for improved ergonomics.

Additional parts from Powerbrick’s catalog, such as headlight cowls encompassing Koso LED headlights, gas caps, and tank roundels, seamlessly integrate into the design.

The paintwork was skillfully executed by Royal Kustom Works, while the seats were crafted by Silvermachine, Europe’s esteemed motorcycle upholsterer.

This BMW R nineT café racer is a collaboration between Arjan van den Boom, the mind behind Ironwood Motorcycles, and Timothy Somers from Powerbrick, forming CNCPT Moto.

Their synergy shines in this uncompromising build.

They overhauled the front forks with CeraCarbon carbon fiber uppers and a Matris cartridge kit, making them fully adjustable. The TFX Suspension rear shock follows suit.

While retaining the 9T’s Brembo brakes, they swapped the laced rims for striking Rotobox Bullet carbon fiber wheels wrapped in Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tires.

To preserve the 9T’s essence, the original fuel tank stayed, complemented by a sleeker air intake from Pier City Cycles in place of the stock chunky one.

The boxer’s subframe and seat brackets were replaced with a stubby 3D-printed subframe housing a slim LED taillight crafted by Silver Machine.

Upgrades include a Powerbrick headlight nacelle, custom yokes, and clip-ons machined by Tim. The bars boast leather-wrapped grips, Motogadget push buttons, and Beringer master cylinders for the brake and hydraulic clutch. A Motogadget digital dash handles speedo duties.

Under the hood, the air- and oil-cooled boxer motor remains stock internally, with CNCPT installing DNA pod filters in place of the air box. The stainless steel exhaust system, custom-designed by CNCPT and manufactured by MAD Exhausts, gives a nod to retro sportbike aesthetics.

The livery boasts a sleek black and silver design, highlighted by a silver finish on the front half of the frame and black accents. Royal Jack handled the paintwork, while Brother Coating managed the powder coating and anodizing.
