When I saw K100 cafe racers few month ago, I knew it was the one for me. Found really great bike near me and bought it few weeks ago. Absolutely love it. The engine makes these look unique.

@BayCityRestorations 3 года назад

Awesome! They are really great bikes with solid engine platforms that will run for a very long time.

@TheR3dline 10 месяцев назад

What offset did you go with and how did it shift your steering geometry?

@samscholtes 3 года назад

Are you going to do the CBR forks on your other K bike, Mike? Ooh, K- Bike Mike, I like the sound of that!!!

@BayCityRestorations 3 года назад

I plan on keeping the K75 as is. The bike rides great so I don't see a need to swap the front end. It costs alot more money to do these front end conversions.

@samscholtes 3 года назад

@@BayCityRestorations Understood. If I remember rightly, you rebuilt those forks anyway. Did you upgrade the springs?

Yes they were completely rebuilt with new seals, internals, etc.

@nathanielbielby7171 Месяц назад

On your handlebars, how did you get the key section for the throttle onto the new grips? The kit from jax doesn't come with one. Does it slip over the existing grip?

@BayCityRestorations Месяц назад

Are you talking about the throttle tube? I used the original tube and put the new Jax grip on it.

@guypigache2105 3 года назад

Nice work. Did you fix the scratches on the front brake lever?

Hey I really love the bike and I’m planing to do a build on my channel here soon but I was wondering where you got your brake lines from and what bike would they be for (cbr1000 or k100) thank you and enjoy the channel!!

@BayCityRestorations 2 года назад

Appreciate you watching! I buy all the brake lines from Venhill. They are all custom sizes so they don’t match up with a specific bike. I’ll have to look at what sizes I used and get back to you.

Love the build man, can I ask when you ordered your triple tree what off set you went with (30 or 40mm)?

@BayCityRestorations 2 года назад

Mine was the 30 but I would recommend going with the 40 to get a bit more steering angle. When I do my next k100 I will be doing the 40mm offset.

@llegolalupodcast Год назад

I have a question: that front axle is for Honda or this is the BMW?

@BayCityRestorations Год назад

The Honda cbr front axle is used. It fits the original K100 wheel.

@bigxsuave Год назад

what's the bottom triple tree diameter for the cbr forks trying to order everything in advance and can't find any answers in the forums. upper is 50 but don't know the size for the bottom and couldn't see it on your screen recording.

@BayCityRestorations Год назад

I believe it was 54mm but I sold this bike so I can’t take a measurement to know forsure. The Jax garage kit will accept forks with a lower clamping area of 53mm to 55mm.

@maqdev 7 месяцев назад

Didn't it significantly reduced turn angle? New forks seems bigger and closer to the engine/radiator reducing angle?

@BayCityRestorations 7 месяцев назад

Yes, swapping to the CBR forks did reduce turn angle due to interference with the tank. Jax garage has newer version of the front end kit with a higher offset which helps with the steering angle.

@ranranpoopants 5 месяцев назад

Holy crap that’s an expensive conversion. Is there a cheaper way?

@BayCityRestorations 5 месяцев назад

Front end suspension components is not really something you want to skimp on. Most kits all run around the same price range. The cheaper alternative is keeping the original forks and shortening them to get the bike lower in the front.
