Bathilda: German name meaning “Fight-Battle”

1971 BMW R75/5 SWB… a werk in progress with a focus on losing weight, comfort, and versatility.

Kick only, lithium battery, Mikuni 34mm flatside carbs, 2-1 exhaust, Boyer electronic ignition, lightened fly wheel,  r65 swing arm for added stiffness, rear subframe shortened by 5″, Ikon rear suspension, front progressive springs, wider bars with internal wiring and heated grips, modified lighting scheme…

more to come… including hard bags, custom seat, upgraded charging, all LED for reduced power consumption, custom fenders,  bored out air box… I’ll think of other things I am sure.
