Everyone knows Orlando Bloom as a successful actor, but not everyone knows about his passion for motorbikes. As a long-standing fan of BMW motorcycles, Orlando Bloom owns and rides a number of BMW models, including old classics.
For his own custom bike project he specifically chose the BMW S 1000 R.
He asked his good friend, Michael “Woolie” Woolaway, head of the Deus Ex Machina custom shop in Venice, CA, USA, to work with him to bring his custom S 1000 R vision into reality. The result of the cooperation, is a stunning one-off 4 cylinder bike.
The S 1000 R Custom and Orlando Bloom had their first test ride in the Malibu Hills while shooting “4CYL”, a production by Arthur de Kersauson and Clement Beauvais in cooperation with BMW Motorrad.
