BMW’s R NineT has done what no other motorcycle manufacturer could’ve done, go mano-a-mano against the legendary Ducati Monster 1200 and come out shining on the other side. The NineT is a retro sport cruiser extraordinaire, but can it be any more retro-licious? For a bit more coin, you can add a DIY kit from Hookie that will utterly transform your Beemer into a vintage bike that’s sure to turn heads. It’s a bolt-on job you can do with your own hands and tools to attach a beautiful four-color tank, a powder-coated satin black subframe, and a new streamlined leather seat, just to name a few. Almost as important as the look is the ease of installation since there’s zero welding or grinding to do. The kit comes with all the necessary components, a hard copy manual, and a video tutorial. In a handful of focused hours, you can have yourself one of the sweetest R NineTs on the planet.
