Feebster Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 This is the first vid of 2. Thought I would demonstrate how easy they are to make for anyone, regardless of what they ride first and will show the actual process on the BMW later today with a second video Took 20 mins and cost 5GBP approx 8USD Link to comment
tazplas Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Very much like the one i made except i used 3mm internal dia tube. You mentioned 6mm tube. Is that internal dia or external dia. Looking forward to the next vid. Cheers Steve Link to comment
R1150RT_MLC_Response Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 This is great and I'm looking forward to part 2. Regards Ian Link to comment
Feebster Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 Here it is folks, part 2, in use on an R1100 Total time including the tupperware removal and refit was about 1 hour. Notice the surface corrosion on the Aluminium of the gearbox? we have salt on our roads here in England during the winter. I don't ride in the winter but the previous owner clearly did! Enjoy! Al.

tazplas Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Great vid Kudos to you for doing this for those that need it. Basically the same as what i did except i used sligthly smaller tubing and ATF - depends what you can get at the time i suppose. Thanks heaps from all. Steve Link to comment
rgraham Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Good show old chap! Nice to see one of these in action. Like the planes in the background as well. Link to comment
Ebola Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Did you take out the brass screws and clean them while doing you tuning or did you just adjust them from where they were previously? Link to comment
Feebster Posted September 25, 2009 Author Share Posted September 25, 2009 The idle screws on my 1100 appear to be wholly un-brasslike! they do have an AV "O" ring which I checked on either side for condition. They were fine and so I returned them to service. Regards Al. Link to comment
Feebster Posted September 25, 2009 Author Share Posted September 25, 2009 Thank you my friend, well spotted. I am secretary of the DMFC, the finest Aero club in England and a display pilot licence holder. There is no escaping aeroplanes at my house!
