I can’t stand the daily horrors of living in New York City, but this bike might help.
The R80 doesn’t need much to be a great trail bike. Alloy wheels, soft-spring suspension, torque converter and dual front caliper brakes do the trick. But once you strip everything from the bike, from the fairing and giant seat to the aerodynamic bodywork and the back half of the exhaust, the bike reveals a look that’s both classic and modern. great below. This bike is nothing you don’t need and everything you do. Those are the engine, seats, wheels and handlebars. Sit down, be quiet and turn the handle.
Riding in the city requires a neat and agile bike with good visibility. Trying to negotiate bad streets with a full windshield and side panniers is never fun, but with all that gone, you’ll be riding in easy mode. For cities where driving is torture, like New York or Chicago, I would much prefer this little car. And it will look great parked outside a coffee shop while you work on your manuscript or whatever.
The key to building bikes like this is to keep them softer than you think and put on more tires than you think it will handle. Then you can pull all the stuff that doesn’t touch your hands, butt, or legs or make the damn thing run out. Do you need anything else?
