Had those same Krauser cases on my 1977 R100/7. Could pack alot of stuff in them. When I stayed in motels on my trip, just unlock them and carried them in like suit cases. Miss those. Now it's just molded baggers and can't carry as much and can't carry with you.
Tbh, you would need to use sulfuric acid and distilled water to the battery. That is literally what is in the battery. The concentration of Sulfuric Acid mixed with the distilled water should be around 20% - 50%.
I bought the book following watching this video and soon afterwards had an issue which i was able to diagnose and repair. I’m mechanically competent, but challenged electrically, thank you for this video and all of your others @heiko they have helped me greatly and allowed me to confidently tackle servicing and repairs on my R75/6 (1976) and on my new addition R100S (1977)
Yes this does work. I was doing this on my series 6 600 and also my series 6 750 and it works very well. I was doing this back in the 80s by the way my little 600 did 195,000 miles and is now on by polish gentleman who is now taking it to 238,000 miles so it works very well
I found you use one end like it is a nail,usually is the slightly longer end. So instead of trying to hit both in the same time you start the one and then hammer away
Any tips on getting the black connector out of the bcm? I've tried everything but it's just stuck Edit: I finally got it off 😂 that was the hardest connector that ive ever had to pull apart. Thanks for the video now i got my remote start installed and working 😁
@@jrmortel if the San Martin has no date window chances are there is a nh35 in it. It will absolutely work. The nh35 and nh38 are the same movement. The 38 just doesn't have the date complication.
Hi Heiko, great video! I have a question for you. I have a new to me 1975 R90S and the front desk calipers have some up and down movements when I brake and make a clicking sound. Is this normal? If not can this be somehow adjusted?
The calipers are mounted with an adjustable cam and the top and bottom of the caliper is supported by the aluminum casting of the fork slider. The aluminum surfaces can wear and give the caliper some vertical play. I recommend that you take your front wheel off and then take your calipers out of the fork sliders to inspect. All that is doable without disconnecting the brake lines. Cheers
I'll look for the part #s but if go to max BMW follow the link I provided you will all the different shims. I haven't ridden much since the video. Usually the bike is quiet in the beginning but after a couple thousand miles things start to widen and loosen up. I will give it a long term test before I can answer that question.
Hmmm looks like a lot of work. Maybe I will try just tightening the oil pan bolts first to see if that seals some of the leaks. Thanks for this video though.
Excellent video where can I order the adapter harness I think you mentioned pacific accessories corporation. Appreciate your help, Bo. 7 /27/24 2:40 pm mst
What I use is the simplest and fasted method.. tape together on the outside, and from the inside use superglue and then cover with bi carb soda, it cures fast and is rock hard. There are a lot of video's showing this super glue and bi carb trick This super glue method is fast and nasty. The part is then harder at the crack and is stronger than the rest of the plastic. Don't take my word for it, here is some one else's. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2tHhW1XOm2U.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-U2bitV4rl8I.html
Really interesting tutorial. I have an old-school mercury manometer, I know how to use it to balance the carbs, but can I also use it to fine tune the pilot setting?
@@HeikosGarage Cargo is a brand, week known here in Europe, they make rotors and all other electronic for both Bmw and Guzzi. The old Bmw and Guzzi share the same rotor and other parts for the charging system.
Finally! Thank you Sir... I been looking for a video like yours, in which shows how to assemble this tool. I'm from Mexico and buying this framesaw it would be to expensive so I am trying to build it myself. I been trying to figure out how is the mortise and tenon joint made, specially the part which has been reinforced with a transverse little wood piece on one side of the saw between the brace and the arm. I'm guessing is just a "T" bride joint like this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zg5RcsbrtZY.html. That part is still unknown for me, I would be very thankful if you give me some advice... Please correct me if I am wrong: the tenon on both sides is made out of piece of metal and it is shaped like those biscuit from jointer machines. I increase the resolution at maximum and that is as much as I can figure out. ... As you mention indeed using hand tools is a pleasure, and... I intend to find pleasure while build it as well!
Tolles Video, besonders für einen BMW Einsteigerschrauber. Und ich hatte mich schon gewundert warum ein Schrauber aus Nevada Heiko heißt. Erst hatte mich gewundert das ein Amerikaner "schnipp" sagt. Aber der Seitenschneider bzw die Aussprache dessen sorgte endgültig für Klarheit. Beste Grüße aus Berlin Paul
Question: I have a '76 R90/6 and I had learned a method to measure the fork oil levels by dipping from the top. I think one of my forks mayhave leaked a bit and want to balance the amount of oil to be the same in each. Anyone know what the level should be with the proper amount of oil (265cc). I show about 14.75cm in my forks now.
Here is a link to an article about exactly that topic. bmwmotorcycletech.info/front-fork-oils-amounts.htm#:~:text=The%20oil%20level%20should%20be,is%20not%20touching%20the%20ground).
Are fiberglass shower pans more susceptible to cracking in pier and beam houses that inevitebly move a bit here and there? My shower pan just cracked and I heard a contractor say fiberglass pans sometimes will crack on pier and beam houses that move a bit.
hi Titanium is scratch resistant but there is one problem, metal like Titanium getting with time oxidation and this thin layer will get so many scratches, I have 2 titanium watches and both looks like soft aluminium , coz this oxidation film on metal is so easy and ugly to sctatch.
I have a Zen3 5700X B2 revision, MSI B550 Mortar motherboard, 32GB DDR4 3600 CL16, RX6800 16GB and my power draw is at 290w maxed out in Furmark. once i under-vault the GPU and set the CPU to 45w eco mode i get to around 160w maxed out total draw. I use a power meter similar to that but made by Belkin
Maybe someone pointed out already but do you know about the Rdnunae homage? It's also an Aliexpress watch but it's the most faithful to the original Seiko.
