THE BIKES
Custom Build by VISION DESIGN

The Bikes

Each build starts with a design concept, and the donor bike is rebuilt from the ground up. The design is modeled in 3D CAD and checked down to the last detail before we build it.
The fairings and seat cowls are 3D printed directly from that 3D data.

SPECS

Cafe racer · Base: 1992 R100R Roadster

Born as a 3D CG design sketch, then built for real.

The shark nose and kidney grille were icons of 1970s BMW car design.
The fairing is inspired by the 3.0 CS, still called one of the most beautiful coupes ever made. An LED projector lamp sits inside the kidney grille to complete the design.

SPECS

Cafe racer · Base: 1975 TX650

If modern big bikes are jet fighters in both performance and design, then this air-cooled twin is a propeller fighter. So we rebuilt its design around our favorite, the P-51 Mustang. It keeps the look of a classic half-fairing cafe racer, with elements of the P-51 Mustang throughout.

The look stays classic, but the electrics, charging and ignition use the latest technology from Motogadget and Vape, giving a 50-year-old machine reliability that rivals modern bikes. The engine is bored up to 750cc, paired with a Weber DCOE carburetor.

Shown at the Yokohama Hot Rod Custom Show 2023, and featured on Return of the Cafe Racers and the YouTube show CAFERACER TV.

About

Masaaki Fukayama

Designer & Builder

After graduating in industrial design from Kanazawa College of Art, I worked as a corporate designer. Owning one American car from the 1960s and 1970s after another led me to work in sales and service at an American car specialist, where I learned engine work, electrics and all kinds of overhauls.

In 1998 I went independent and founded VISION D&P.INC in Toyama, Japan. Since then we have worked on product design, product planning, store design and 3D CG visualization, and launched VISION DESIGN as our custom motorcycle division.

Every bike is built with product design methods: a clear design concept, developed in 3D, and that digital data turned into real parts — all in one continuous process.
