The Black Tea Bonfire is the café racer interpretation by Munich-based custom bike specialist Black Tea Motorbikes. Like the Wildfire, it is based on a restored BMW R100, but is reimagined in the classic café racer style of the British rocker scene of the 1960s. Low clip-on handlebars, rear-set footpegs, a solo seat with a hump, and a small fairing around the round headlight give it its characteristic racing character. The air-cooled boxer engine is overhauled, the electrics modernized, and the aesthetics individually configured to the customer's wishes. Crafted by hand over several months, each one is a unique piece that evokes the golden era of British café racers. For lovers of thoroughbred retro motorcycles with modern reliability.
