You did right up until you started it after adding new fuel. At that point you should have replaced the fuel filter then flushed the system by disconnecting the return line and dumping fuel until all traces of old fuel was gone, if the tank was clean. If the tank was contaminated with debris, you would have needed to pull the tank, fuel level sensor assembly, cleaned it all out replaced the fuel lines in the tank and installed a new sensor float. Cleaned the injectors, then started the bike. If it had been run in the last year. If longer you should have verified the engine was loose by hand turning it over before you attempt a startup. If it were locked up you could have snapped the starter. Pulling plugs and rotating the rear wheel would have been the right approach if it hadn’t been started in more than a year.
Just servicing that clutch is a pain in the butt... Impressive bike, there is something about boxer and transversal V twin engines that make the whole bike appearance so mechanical in a good old way...
wierd question but i just bought one of these from a guy who had it in storage for 100 bucks. its a little beat up with 44k miles on it, he said it ran when he stored it. this vid is gonna help me a ton, is there a list of tool i might need for all of these things you did?
Hello, I watch your videos on UA-cam. I will buy a torque wrench for the K1100lt motorcycle engine. 20-120 N.M Will an adjustable torque wrench be enough or should I buy 25-220?
@@restorationvalve very good plan. I saw so meny videos of making this bike as a cafe racer machine, but your plan seems to be just perfect. We will wach you doing your job. I am sure that the bike will be perfect when it's all over. Old but gold!
Quick question. I have some trouble with my Dr650rs not starting en hoped u might have some tips. Is there a way I could contact you? I don’t know why it won’t start
You can find the electrical diagram here: www.kbikeparts.com/classickbikes.com/ckb.tech/0.ckb.tech.files/kwiring/kwiring.htm FYI, be careful, BMW liked to repeat some wire colours.
Great video but I have to watch it on silent mode because of that awful soundtrack. It really is a terrible spoil for some great camera work. Much better to have overdubbed with some narration of the work undertaken describing what was being done.

What a bike, what is the plan? Rebuild entire bike or? Very cool looking bike.
The plan at the moment it to get the bike mechanically sorter and then we’ll see how we can improve the appearance of the bike

I l’île thaïs vidéo thanks you ( french guys)👍👍👍👍✌️✌️✌️
Music killed it for me...😶
Made me laugh at "the spark plugs didn't look great"...
A W E S O M E !
As K1100LT owner i was interested when i found your rebuild videos,but that quickly changed when i discovered they were all full of stupid music
Waste of time....dont bother watching this kind of "mechanics"
Great video but I have to watch it on silent mode because of that awful soundtrack. It really is a terrible spoil for some great camera work. Much better to have overdubbed with some narration of the work undertaken describing what was being done.
Interesting but unwatchable due to the terrible 'soundtrack' noise. What's wrong with a commentary, shame coukd have been useful vid
