    Impressive! It's actually great that some people dare to invest in customisation and to push the boundaries. We can then see the realm of possible and dream a bit!

    Really impressive to see the Bahama Bike finally finished. Your bike was the pinnacle of what you could do, that mark has been moved forwards and upwards, and the best bit is the customer is currently riding to South Africa. I thought the work you did on my bike was amazing, and worth the 3hr cold/wet ride to spend the day with you. Once again thank for the hard work, the videos and pushing the boundaries of what is possible.

    Loving the fact that it is a triple black now living up to its name, instead of black and silver. I think he would have been better off with satin silver as its more forgiving with Sand, dirt & South Africa. Equally intimidating. Nice job, well done. I live inCape Town and have done pretty much what he has without all the lights. I also use the Garmin tread which I wired directly to the system & removed the midget Nav 6 system. Also have a couple of secret "deterrents" hidden on the bike.

    I really like your videos and work which you are doing with Tom. I understand that the customer is the king. In my opinion too much it's too much. Guy invests lots of $$$ in million of the lights, plans to go to rough roads, and his bike does stand on street tires 😅. Machete, it's a good tool if you need to open coconut or use it as a surface under your sidestand when you stop on the sandy terrain. Well, if you ever get there with those tires 😂. I used my Machete many times going solo off road 3300km in 2 weeks in Costa Rica. The cover of Machete was attached to the Honda CRF 300cc with 2 zip tides and was perfectly fine. When /if you will goes off road I am wondering if those side footrests will not open your camshaft cover when you drop the bike (and you will). Work performed beautifully as usual, if really needed?

    Nice work Steve. I mounted my T3s on the handguards on my S1000XR in exactly the same way, I've had to shroud them as you can see them from above and they interfere with your night vision! I find it interesting that there is all that focus on additional lights on the front but only a B6 on the rear. Why not T3s for better rear brake/indicator visibility (the standard indicator/tail light combo on BMWs now is dire)?

    Awesome video! Kudo's to you and Tom. I love the carbon and the powder coating. Ilmberger carbon I'm assuming? I have some on my GS. I do admire your enthusiasm . But that's a lot of lights. Beautiful bike for sure. The Dark Knight I think. I do want to see it with the bags on. I saw a GS last year with a plethora of lights, and when stopped they rotated counter clockwise. It certainly got my attention at a stoplight! I do enjoy these videos very much. Keep up the good work. Best!

    I mean ... great job from you and your team, but for me it's wayyyy to much ... I know many people like to kind of customize the GS(A), but this looks like a christmas tree with all of those lights ... and I don't know if the knife is a good idea. 1st: if someone wants to job the bike the knife is already there and 2nd ... if you ride this through germany for example and the police notice the knife (and they will notice the bike with all of those lights, because it's not allowed here in germany) than the owner will have a huge problem ... just my 2 cents ... no offense 🙂

    I just received my Triple Black R1300GS. It arrived with BMW auxiliary lights. Does the Mojave have the ability to incorporate or use aftermarket lights and without throwing error codes on the TFT display? The current OEM auxiliary lights are controlled within the menu of the display. I believe on previous GS’s they were separate from the onboard computer? I don’t believe your installs have included bikes with preexisting BMW lights already mounted. Thanks in advance.
