Hi welcome , currently stripping my spare engine so i can reuse main engine cases for my other engine restoration videos, #bmwadventureriders #bmwr1200gs #bmwr1200gsadventure
People have used R1150 cyl & head on the r1100, i wonder how many parts are equal or almost. Yep, this powder coat! my R1150GS final drive dind't look to bad at first, but once glass bead blasted. It's now since 9 days fully rebuild accept paint. it's a grand.
@@Tattytyres The BMW dealer has this ability in their company software as well, i saw when i was there. the grips of the R1150/R1100 for example are also used on much newer models, no so much boxer or 4/6 cyl models.
@@AnalogDude_ yeah i have ridden my adventure off road and it doesnt make sense how a big bike can handle so well, its the best all round bike iv owned and iv had alot of bikes over the years
@@Tattytyres Yep, the final drive of the R1150 went ll the way back to the K1100, K1 with paralever, the same casting. seeming it started with the R100GS in 1986 or so. this swing arm looks like the one on the R1150, while the one on the R1100 was squared. It was also patented. dry weight up to 290kg for the k1600 or so. They mastered it, it's simply stunning. i wonder why you can't choose on the current RS models for telelever. The new R1300GS presented a couple of days ago doesn't have a clutch lever. They went like Honda on the trans alp with a dual clutch system, i think.
Could you do a video of the side to side play of the Conrods? Cheers
Yeah sure, i will slip a feeler gauge down sides too
@@smoll.miniatures just measured my conrod big end and its 0.10mm feeler gauge that i can slip down side

@@AnalogDude_ yeah i like the real oem site because it shows you what parts fit other models

@@Tattytyres Today, i saw, a fully loaded R1250GS adventure, these are massively big 2 wheeled vehicles, can you compare something? but yet it works.
