Hi Kees,
Some very nice work there. Very "Moi" I presume you designed all the parts as well.
I myself have done some modifications to my Beemer, I must say I think mine are a little more technical and radical, but you can see the originality of the bike still shining through...


Un saludo

Kees,

This is a remarkable piece of work

Particularly like the bits you have made up, specifically the disc carrier and hub assembly for the rear wheel, truely excellent

Look forward to hearing more about your wizardry in future threads

Great stuff.

thanks guys for the compliments.

planning to make new yokes....maybe next month.

I have only just seen this excellent thread! Well done Kees. I am impressed with the weight saving; 35kg! Just shows how much the fairing and rear frame assembly weigh.
I think it was Blackhole engineering that used two huge K&N's fitted to elbows so they tucked in where the airbox was; and described that the system required a variable fuel regulator to get things right - even used larger fuel injectors.
If you do want to change the yokes, send a pm to Scott in USA: fshartley@verizon.net. He made some excellent replacements which transformed the rigidity of the front end and may be able to help with some designs.
Keep us posted!

Sorry folks but bump

I like this lots

I'm assuming that as an alternative fuel tank a GS one should be pretty much a straight fit? The early 11GS's had plastic tanks if I recall correctly.

the last couple of years the beemer changed a lot.......check out the pics and you wil see what i mean.

First time I have seen this thread I think. Thats a great looking bike. Nicely thought through. I love the polished tank on the second last iteration.

[ianbcr]

Being a newbie on here I have only just found this thread... Just brilliant, you sir are a talented chap, really enjoyed reading this. I worry about changing the plugs so I won't be changing much myself. Keep up the good work and please keep us up to date with your doings.

Thanks once again Marsh
