Though the 1,300cc engine remains largely stock, it does benefit from a custom two-into-two titanium exhaust system made in collaboration with Akrapović.
Moreover, thanks to the addition of a nitrous injection system (through which the bottle is mounted conspicuously between the pipes), it only takes the touch of a button to boost output beyond the stock 145 horsepower and 110 lb-ft of torque.
One of a kind
Being a one-off creation, unfortunately, this R 1300 R boxer custom isn’t for sale. However, keen-eyed readers will spot several components pulled from the BMW parts bin. In addition to a set of M 1000 RR forks, it also wears some repurposed LEDs borrowed from the automotive division’s M4 CSL.
As such, if you feel like tackling a similar project for yourself, you could theoretically invest in a BMW R 1300 R and break out the angle grinder. At $17,290, it’s not exactly a cheap motorcycle for your first build, but it does make for one heck of a versatile platform when you consider what it can become in the case of extreme racers like Titan.
