Who knew a Denso starter motor would fit the BMW! Thanks for the tip 😸

Hi, there is a book by Helmut Heusler that will answer your question 1000-times better than I ever could. Plus, it describes a lot of the maintenance and repair tasks very thoroughly. Best book, if you’re thinking about getting an airhead. And when it comes to customizing it helps to check in with a TÜV guy because of changes in regulations over the years. Always the rules of the year the bike was built apply, so as a rule of thumb…the older the better = more liberty when customizing. What is your plan?

Hey Joshua, thanks for you information, I try to get this book. I am thinking about a project like yours but at this time I think I want to start with a R100R from the 90th but it has to be get a legal German license

Sounds great. What is it about the R100R that you like? Not many of the modifications I made are actually relevant for the TÜV…fortunately. As long as you keep within the normal regulations obviously. But it’s okay to build your own fenders, seat, etc.

Hi Paul, the exhaust is hand-built by an Italien company called Mass Moto. This model is called 2-in-2 hot rod exhaust and it sounds amazing. If you want a sound check, check out this video right here: ua-cam.com/video/BNxWMcLL7QE/v-deo.html On the next project I'd love to build my own. In my opinion the @kullyco UA-cam channel has some of the best videos on how to build your own exhaust. Like this one for example: ua-cam.com/video/F-XynfCBgGI/v-deo.htmlsi=B-b1VwNnNK1jaWMo Are you considering to build your own? If yes, which bike are you working on and what do you have in mind?

@@MotoWrenchers Hello thank you for your reply. I am working on my 1977 R80/7 which has the Siebenrock 1000cc upgrade kit, with sportier cam and Dellorto phm38 carbs. I brought some cheap mufflers to bolt onto original headers but sounds tinny and not a nice deep sound.

@paulmrshll oh wow, great upgrades. Yeah the mass moto exhausts have a nice sound. I included a few other cool exhaust alternatives in the build sheet. You can find it in the video description.

oh shit...

Hi, I just checked the email and the online shop didn't use the original KTM parts numbers. But here's a website where you can find all the OEM KTM parts numbers: www.bike-parts-ktm.com/ktm-motorcycle I hope that helps 👍

Moin! Hab dir gerade auf dein erstes Comment geantwortet. Sorry, dass das so lange gedauert hat.

@@MotoWrenchers kein ding :)

Hi, thanks for your comment! I'm happy it was helpful.

Thank you very much my friend!

That's a great tip. Gonna try WD40 the next time around.

Hi Lou, thank you so much! Appreciate it a lot.

haha no, not at all...very relaxed :D

Appreciate it my friend!

Ich würde gleich auf das Siebenrock BigBore Kit umbauen. Dazu der lange 5. Gang und ein paar neue Lager.

@@dathanni3437 so tief bin ich in BMW‘s nich drinn. Aber klar wenns da upgrade/Tuning Sachen gibt wärs ne gute idee wenn der motor dann eh schon offen ist

Ja, absolut. Hab mir das am Anfang vom Projekt nicht zugetraut und extra ein Bike gesucht, was gut lief. Jetzt fehlt mir leider die Zeit aber nächstes Mal würde ich mir das auf jeden Fall zutrauen und den Motor komplett auseinander nehmen. Jetzt mache ich erst mal nur die Basics: Neue Steuerkette, Stößelrohre, Ventilspiel einstellen, etc. Vielen Dank für's Feedback!

Auch sehr nice!

Thanks brother! I'll get that setup once I ran through the 12 cans of brake cleaner I got as a deal haha :D

The «RK» cable seems to maybe work but none of the cables listed online mentions how many amps they can hold. From my sources they need to be capable of atleast 30-50amp because this is what an average mc (2000 mods and after) draws when starting

Hi, do you have a store for welding supply in your are? They should be able to help you. It's 16AWG welding wire, that is used for the ground connection. This is the link for the one I used: amzn.to/4dVJB8X I unfortunately don't know what a RK wire is, so I can't say. Let me know if you found it or have any other questions! What bike are you building?

Hi, happy to hear brother! Your bike sounds amazing by the way. Is it the golden one you're working on or a new CB350?

@@MotoWrenchers hey thank you! I've got another CB I'm putting together, hoping to have it done by the end of the winter. Looking forward to more videos from you, your content is very good!

Thank you, Peter!

Thanks, I appreciate that. At least now I know what to call those annoying dark spots hahaha :D Any tips for removing them?

Oh man...hope this engine doesn't get it. A friend of mine told me that there is something that's used in aviation to prevent it. I'll definitely do some research now. If I had to do it again, I'd definitely risk PTSD as well :D

Hi Scott, thanks for your insight. I'll definitely keep that in mind. So much still to learn. I'm happy I didn't use them on the whole engine. A friend told me about a solution that is used in aviation to protect the aluminum after cleaning. Do you know anything about something like that?

Thanks, that's a great tip! What do you ride / build?

Yamaha xv750

Nice bike. Did you or are you customizing it?

@@MotoWrenchers yes very much so, it’s been a labour of love and money pit, but very close to finishing

Nice! Yeah, I feel you on that. Which style did you go for? And what’s left to do? I’ve seen people take it into all sorts of directions.

Oh, that's great to know. That would make this a lot easier, I guess.

Hello my friend! I haven't, yet. Does it work better? I'll definitely give it a shot!

@@MotoWrenchers I have not tried comparing them either to see what is best. I think brake cleaner is mostly acetone, but with some extra stuff in it. When cleaning metal before welding acetone is best, brake cleaner might leave residue from "the other stuff" on the metal after it has evaporated, and creates a dangerous gas when welding + can introduce impurities to the weld. I often use something oil based first, diesel is great but smells terrible, white spirit/terpentinen works ok as well. These last longer since they do not evaporate as fast as acetone/brake cleaner.

Thanks a lot!

@@MrSick-nm2sp wo hast das machen lassen und wieviel gezahlt?. Auch die zylinder gepulvert? Ich hab ne Yamaha SR500 und bin kurz vorm strahlen und lacken/pulvern

Das hat die Firma SGS Sandstrahlgesellschaft Stuttgart gemacht…

Danke dir! Rückblickend hätte ich das auch gerne gemacht... :)

Ich habe die beiden Vergaser bei Vaporblast24 Nassstrahlen lassen. Damit war ich sehr zufrieden. Die haben 35€ für beide Vergaser genommen. Baust du deine SR500 um oder restaurierst du die? SR500s liegen mir sehr am Herzen. Hab mit 13 auf der SR von meinem Vater fahren gelernt. Er hat immer gesagt: "wenn du sie anbekommst, darfst du sie fahren"

@@MotoWrenchers ich will sie umbauen, habe 2. die eine ist schon angemeldet und wird stück für Stück umgebaut damit ich fahren kann. Die andere ist mehr oder weniger ein teilespender. Den motor habe ich am Wochenende unfreiwillig angefangen zu zerlegen, ich bin mir noch nicht sicher ob ich den motor komplett lackieren soll oder nur teilweise schwarz und teilweise polieren/nassstrahlen halt😅 Wenn die eine umgebaut ist wird die andere restauriert oder verkauft.. je nach finanzieller lage und ob ich bis dahin noch die garage habe😂

Thanks brother, I'll give that a shot!

Thank you very much! Hahaha yeah...super chilled last few weeks before the move :D

Moin! Danke dir. Ich wollte unbedingt einen hochwertigen Kabelbaum haben. Jetzt wo die Qualität kenne würde ich mir die Sets auch selbst kaufen aber du hast auf jeden Fall recht...ist ne ganze Stange Geld. Zu Aliexp... kann ich nicht wirklich was sagen. Kann natürlich sein, dass die ne sehr gute Kopie haben und die auch vernünftig funktionieren aber kann auch sein, dass das totaler Schrott ist und man sich damit nachher mehr Probleme einhandelt als einem lieb ist. Für mich war es wichtig, dass ich mich auf am Ende auf die Elektrik verlassen kann. Wie viel sollen die von Alie kosten? An welchem Bike schraubst du gerade? LG aus dem Norden :)

@@MotoWrenchers an einer R100 und einer Guzzi V1000 :) Ali... bewegt sich um die 100€

Hi Rich, thank you very much. Unfortunately I can't take the bike with me...

Hi Michael, thank you so much. So true...two weddings in one year. Absolutely monumental! Can't wait for that moment.

Thanks a lot my friend!

Ach nice! Hört sich nach einem geilen Projekt an. Wie hast du deine Sitzbank und Höcker (wenn du einen hast) gestaltet/gebaut? Ist echt so...es kommen so viele Sachen zusammen. Irgendwo muss man einen Strich ziehen...leider :D Wie lange baust du schon an deinem Bike?

@@MotoWrenchers da es ein Bobber ist, hab ich von Alex Leathercraft ein Sitz gekauft und von Nordjung Design die Halterung.

I paid 840€ in the end

Hi, thank you very much! Welcome to the club. Same here..."just" finishing up the last tasks on the engine and rebuilding all the individual components. Should be ready to put the engine back in the frame on the weekend or latest early next week. Do you have plans for your R80RT or are you going to enjoy it as it is?

@@MotoWrenchers sounds great, and you will be finishing the bike in US? My plan is to use all the stuff from Walzwerk, even though it is really expensive. Their bobber bmw are crazy good looking :)

@jeanstrandholt1901 I need to finish it before hahaha not stressful at all :D Ah that’s a very high quality solution 👌

Thank you very much. I’m also looking forward to this last stage of the build. Can’t wait for the first ride 🙌

Thanks!

Thank you, I appreciate that. I don’t know if they have this information only on their German page but at the bottom they have a link to ‚Impressum‘ where you can find their email address (info@motogadget.de). I hope they can help you 👌

@@MotoWrenchers Thats great. Thank You. Thats very helpful. Im about to wire my virago. Got stuck on the neutral sensor. I can connect the side stand switch but how the M unit will know if the bike is in neautral, right?

Yeah, I had a few people commenting about that. Would you mind letting me know, when they got back to you, how it’s done? How’s the wiring going apart from that?

@@MotoWrenchers Oh. Im just starting. Also I work on a Virago so Ive changed the starter setup to the 2 gen Virago with a starter solenoid so..long story short Im figuring out how to make all that work with the M unit. Just got all the bits now and tearing through the old harness to see what I still need. I think Im going to start today and will propably have a list of questions so Ill email them with one long headache email🤣😬

@_MotoMikey_ hahaha sounds like a plan 👌 If you have any more general questions feel free to ask. Happy to help if I can :) Good luck and take your time!

Thanks mate, I appreciate that!

Yo Jason, that’s amazing! Are you customizing your R90?

Happens too easily. I hope it worked well 🙌

Hi Richard, if I remember correctly the munit blue came with a bunch of ferrules in different sizes (all relatively small though). I thought those were supposed to go on to the wire ends. Would you recommend to take the pins off of the output side?

@@MotoWrenchers The breakout box that comes with the Motoscope pro has ferrules for the wires as it uses screw terminals. I have fitted 2 MoUnits recently and they didn't come with ferrules. The MoUnit uses wago style connectors which are designed for stripped wire. I have only used ferrules on the older M-unit 2. One other tip is to check the rating on each pin of the Deutsch connectors. DTP 7.5A DT13A and DTP 25A.

@richardprowse1088 thanks a lot! I really appreciate your help 🫡🙏

Hey Benjamin, unfortunately I don't have a K75 but the process should be pretty similar. Good luck! If you have any specific questions, let me know. I'm happy to help if I can.

Hi Natalio, unfortunately I can't help you with that since the R80 doesn't have a clutch switch. But I'm sure that Motogadget can help you with that question, if you send them an email. They are very helpful.

Hi Thorsten, This is option 1: amzn.to/4epZQMz And this is option 2: shop.kabelknecht.de/p/halter-fuer-40mm-midi-sicherungen-schwarz I hope that helps!
