Overview[edit | edit source]
Bakker Kangaroo
This
motorcycle is
based on a
BMW R80 engine,
but can also
be fitted with
a more modern
boxer-engine of
any cylinder-capacity. The
front and rear
shock-absorbers are
from WP.
This is a
touring-motorcycle with
sporty riding properties.
The tank
incorporates an extra
storage-compartment, which
always comes in
handy on
touring trips. Naturally the
entire motorcycle can
be assembled to
the customers
wishes. For example
a different
engine, wheels, brakes
and suspension
can be installed.
You can also
have the
original BMW wheels,
front- and rear fork,
brakes and
footsteps installed.
