Below is a custom motorcycle with a liquid smooth aluminum body -- storm, which has many airbags that look insignificant in fighter planes, and an almost completely closed front wheel The car was made by fabman creations (FMC) in South Africa. It was built at the request of a customer and based on BMW R ninet.
Most of the frame and internal organs of the car remain intact, including the iconic horizontal opposed engine, with its cylinder head sticking out of the side plate.
But absolutely everything facing outward has been replaced. In fact, even the fuel tank and subframe under the body are brand new. According to bikeexif, Wayne buys of FMC taught himself how to shape aluminum and knock out panels on tree stumps a decade ago. Now, he has made great progress; The metal products on storm look almost perfect.
In order to minimize closed lines, some of these components are designed with large and complex shapes. For example, the main metal fairing extends from the front fairing to the short tail. There are almost no fasteners to break the silk metal surface.
Here, even the handlebars are not allowed to have any interference. For this purpose, buys created a set of pliers, which is connected to the front fork under the bottom Trident clamp, then rises around the fairing and finally approaches the position of a normal coffee racer.
Jet fighter style air intakes carry cooling air through the finned engine cylinders at speed, helping storm restore some cooling capacity in its metal shell. Another vent at the rear left pushes air through the repositioned oil cooler, while the weird looking front fender covers most of the front wheel, with two vents on both sides, which can carry air through the brake calipers.
The rear wheel also has a large hub cover - there is no space for spokes and rims to disturb the appearance of the machine - and its standard single swing arm and shock absorber are hidden. The gap between the swing arm cover and the main body looks very small. It's even difficult to put your little finger in, but it allows the rear wheel to move up and down normally.
The seat has a small leather cushion, a fuel tank cap, some upper thermal vents and an instrument panel with some buttons. In fact, it looks like the standard single barrel dashboard on R ninet scrambler. The ignition device is gone, replaced by a keyless system.
As some Facebook videos prove, the car can run and ride. FMC said that he was asked if he would make a kit for other R ninet owners, but this seemed unlikely given the complexity of the construction. But anyway, the car will still be sold.
