thats a beautiful machine. Im going insane atm thinking about buying myself a project K100 or a R100 to scramble. This video was well put together and made me feel like i could do it too!
Lol, It no doubt had some tape, gasket maker, and wonkey bois, (lol i got a kick out of that terminology(true)) but mechanically was well maintained and would take you anywhere.. bro you did a hell of a job with that thing and your attention to the detail was awesome .. I was chuckling remembering all the places I myself, and my dad took that thing. She was a war horse and lives on from visually beat to beauty queen.. It was rough around the edges but a great platform to do what you did.. As I told you the day you bought it.. I purchased it with intent on the cafe conversion. But after riding it i laughed and decided to ride it far.. That lead to giving it to my dad and him riding it far and 5 other BMWs of my own and now a Super Tenere and over 200k miles in 10 years of traveling the US, not counting dirtbike riding/racing, track days and mountain miles on the sportbike.. To see that bike go to someone who rode it home and worked his ass off quickly to make it what it is.... is satisfying to say the least.. look forward to seeing it in person in my travels one day soon. Happy trails bro
Thanks a lot I really appreciate it. And thank you for taking care of her and she made it home with no problems and I feel like I could take it anywhere still, she runs great.
hi i'm also making a caferacer k100 your videos helped me a lot. i would like to ask you if you can tell me what model of tires you took and the measurements?
Your rear tyre is put on in the wrong direction mate. Edit: just saw the end, now your front tyre is also flipped? When you mount it at 20 minutes in, it's correct.
Hi I want to ask you how you feel the front suspension feel secure the feeling you get it’s confident secure to drive , I ask because I have to K75 and I don’t feel really Secure, I see you have a R1150 GS me too have same motorcycle and wend I drove de GS and switching to the K I don’t feel really secure,please let me know your experience tanks
Horribel to See. Valves adjustment? Check tensioner for camchain. Starter Motor, generator renovation. Important when Motor is apart. Compression test? And so on.
I can’t understand why so many youtubers now mute their videos and put trash music in the foreground. It is such an idiotic practice. If I want to listen to music I will listen what I like but if you make a video which is totally not about music, leave the original sound on ffs and don’t add tarsh soul less music. I had to stop watching after 2 minutes.
That's a beautiful BMW Engine sound! Sweet music to my ears!
I just got a bmw R80 RT and I can’t wait to chop it up and mod it 🤤💙🔥 I’ve gotten plenty ideas thanks to builders like you
Never stop posting content like this. One of the best! Can certainly see you going to the million dollar club 💵
Thank you I really appreciate it. I try my best

Alex, from where did you buy the throttle cable to fit aftermarket throttle control?
@alex trout A very interesting project - approximately how much can such a project cost, not counting the hours of work and the bike to be converted?
Thanks and I made a whole video on every part I got BMW K1100 CAFE RACER COST

Hey Alex - great job! Did you keep track of your hours and get an idea of how long the project took you?
I didn’t keep up with it but a guess would be around 250hrs ish and most of that is just cleaning
@@alextrout2631 Hey Alex - mind if I email you?
Can you tell us how much was the budget for the project @@alextrout2631
Tell me where to buy brake discs and what kind of rubber they installed

I’m located in Fredericksburg VA and it all depends on the little stuff you want. You can email me and we can talk more about it xanderrm250@gmail.com
What's the jägermeister bottle?
hey Alex, I have a question: I wanna to the same with the intake, do you had to do something extra when you changed it?
Loose the music and it’s a good watch.

Hey Alex! When you repainted the engine, did you use paint remover?
I want to buy one.

Good looking Bike but leave out the shite music, ambient noise is better
Horribel to See.
Valves adjustment?
Check tensioner for camchain.
Starter Motor, generator renovation.
Important when Motor is apart.
Compression test?
And so on.
Sexy ass bike
Thanks a lot I appreciate it
