French Shop Presents Electric Conversion Kits For Old BMWs

Some motorcyclists gravitate to classic, timeless design. While vintage BMW motorcycles scratch that nostalgic itch, they do little to meet strict modern-day emissions restrictions. With France’s Low Emissions Zones (ZFE) expanding over the next decade, demand for electric-powered transport will only continue to rise.

To help keep more old-school Beemers on the road, Paris custom shop Mototherapy has converted boxers to electric powertrains over the past few years. Offering a conversion kit could help the garage meet the increasing interest, and its Ride Mercury project aims to put the electric power in more airhead owners’ hands.
