– Tim Harney is not a mechanic, is not an expert. He is a product designer who has worked in many differente firm in architecture, furniture, lighting industry, but in him there was always a passion for two wheels.

What you see here is a custo motorcycle made starting from a 1976 BMW 75/6, a sprightly almost forty in great shape. Harney has replaced original carburetors in favor of Mikuni VM32s. He installed a smaller battery and converted the ignition to electronic.
