Hookie Co. "Cobra" Moto

Hookie Co. "Cobra" Moto - TheArsenale

Hookie Co is one of the most respected names in custom motorcycles, a Dresden-based workshop that turns heritage machines into 3D-printed works of art. Their boldest project, the Cobra, reimagines the BMW R nineT as a bionic cafe racer limited to just 10 units worldwide, blending a retro-classic donor bike with a futuristic, exposed-mechanics body.

 

Who is Hookie Co?

Hookie Co is one of the best custom motorcycle brands out there, constantly coming up with incredible custom motorcycles and even kits that dramatically change your bike's appearance. Founded in 2012 as a custom motorcycle garage, the German team has grown into a full studio offering limited-edition production builds based on current bikes from big-name brands. As the maker explains on the official Hookie Co Cobra page, every body part is produced through a 3D-printing process that lets them realise ideas in a far more versatile way.

What makes the Hookie Co Cobra special?

The Cobra is the next motorcycle to join Hookie's series working with the heritage BMW R nineT. The custom bike comes in five different accent colours atop a black livery. The R nineT has been stripped to its bare essentials and styled with a modern, sleek body. Its modern cafe-racer aesthetic meets a low-slung profile with sharp angles here and there. The custom fuel tank is notched for knee support and sits elegantly atop the straight rail frame, while the minimalist rear fairing leaves the 1,170cc boxer engine fully on show. According to Silodrome, the bodywork is fibreglass-reinforced PA12, chosen for its quality and light weight.

How many Cobra motorcycles will be made?

This limited bike will see only 10 units made, and each one was available for around $38,140 directly from Hookie. The COBRA concept is offered in several design variants, including Toxic Red, Electric Yellow, Dark Copper, Ice Blue, and a Stealth pattern, and each price includes a brand-new BMW R nineT donor bike. That rarity is exactly what makes Hookie motorcycles so sought after among collectors of custom two-wheelers.
