Nicholas Petit was commissioned by Continental tires to show off the Continental TKC 80 off road tires which you can see really easily on this motorcycle. So yes, Nicholas Petit took one of the fastest technologically advanced motorcycles and turned it into a bobber / dirt bike hybrid. I did a test ride of the BMW S 1000 RR last year and I wrote a post on it back then so go check it out. Nicholas calls it the Mad Max and if you have ever seen the movie you will want to call it that too. I really like the matte black paint job finish on … Continue reading →
