BMW R80 Scrambler - Part 10: The Rides
zhlédnutí 11KPřed 3 lety
PROJECT UPDATE! Finally! This last episode took a little bit longer than the others. After the first testride I still wanted to bleed the brakes, just to be sure. I also took my time to set the speedo, the process was a bit unclear at first and to be honest I couldn't explain you how to do it after all these months, but you'll figure it out! These rides were filmed during summer, right now it's...
BMW R80 Scrambler - Part 9: Assembly and testride.
zhlédnutí 22KPřed 4 lety
PROJECT UPDATE! Now that all individual parts were ready, I could (finally) assemble everything again and get the bike back on its wheels. I rolled her outside, started it for the first time in 5 weeks and made my first test rides. The work is not over though. The speedometer needs to be calibrated, because at the moment it doesn't show any speed, I'll show the whole process in the next video. ...
BMW R80 Scrambler - Part 8: Subframe, mufflers and brakes.
zhlédnutí 15KPřed 4 lety
PROJECT UPDATE! I installed the passenger footpegs, replaced the front brake hose, refreshed the battery box and installed an older style brake pedal make room for the exhaust pipe. After cleaning up the rear end (part 6) I had to wait for the ordered subframe and seat to arrive. It did. That made everything move forward again: rear fender, licence plate holder and light and mounts for the indi...
BMW R80 Scrambler - Part 7: Painting the tank.
zhlédnutí 14KPřed 4 lety
PROJECT UPDATE! It's been a while, I know. Waiting for parts made the last couple of weeks go by very slowly. I started repainting the tank, but ran into some difficulties. I had to start over again after the first try, but I'm happy that I did. I know it still isn't perfect, some dents are still visible and the clearcoat has orangepeel all over it, but that will buff out (one day). Onwards!
BMW R80 Scrambler - Part 6: Cleaning up the rear end
zhlédnutí 19KPřed 4 lety
PROJECT UPDATE! First of all the wheels go off to get them powdercoated, after that they will be fitted with new bearings and tires. The tank finally gets rid of the red color, more about that in the next video. With the whole rear end stripped down I noticed a lot of ugly spots. After cleaning they turned out to be rusty, so I decided to paint the parts in order to protect them for the next co...
BMW R80 Scrambler - Part 5: Painting cylinders, Installing exhaust
zhlédnutí 19KPřed 4 lety
PROJECT UPDATE! Before I'll take the wheels off, I took the opportunity to freshen up the look of the engine. A transparent fuel line and fuel filter replaced the black hose. The tires I ordered also arrived, the sizes of these Heidenau K60's are shown in the video. The older type of valve covers were installed, the red front cover got sanded down and everything got a nice matte black (heat res...
BMW R80 Scrambler - Part 4: Instruments, Lights
zhlédnutí 12KPřed 4 lety
PROJECT UPDATE! Once I had the cables and wires cleaned up I installed the speedometer and made a bracket to mount the ignition switch next to it. With everything in place I could then stort out the wiring of the instruments. I found a very helpful diagram that showed the internals of the standard instrument cluster, that made it very easy to understand what wires I had to connect. With all con...
BMW R80 Scrambler - Part 3: Handlebars, Controls, Cable routing
zhlédnutí 15KPřed 4 lety
PROJECT UPDATE! First of all, I wanted to clean up the messy cables. In order to decide how my cables should run, I installed the new handlebars, grips, mirrors, headlight and indicators. With the tank and original seat still mounted on the bike I could then easily decide if I liked the position. The clutch cable had some damage from rubbing against other parts, so I decided to replace it. The ...
BMW R80 Scrambler - Part 2: Ordering parts, Disassembly
zhlédnutí 12KPřed 4 lety
PROJECT UPDATE! After buying and cleaning up the 1992 R80RT, it was time to move it inside and start the real work. A lot of time went into searching of parts online. Many of the parts will be shown in the video so you can easily find them yourself with a little bit of googling. Tire choice is hard because of the 18 inch size of both front and rear wheel. Lights and indicators will be of the mo...
BMW R80 Scrambler - Part 1: Buying, Cleaning, Riding
zhlédnutí 17KPřed 4 lety
NEW PROJECT! 4 years after my green R80 Scrambler, it was time for a new project. Selling that previous one after a year always left some kind of hole that the Ducati Scrambler couldn't really fill. I found this 1992 R80RT with 132.000km's on the clock. It runs well and starts, rides and brakes like it should. The windshield and panniers had to go, as will many other parts soon. I cleaned up th...

2 brothers, 2 scramblers, and a lot of fun rides! We made this video with a friend, this is just a small part of the footage we made, there might be a longer version on the way! The bikes: My brother rides a 2015 800cc model, reduced to 35kw since he has an A2 motorcycle licence. It's the Icon model with the SC-projects muffler, the spoke wheels, grill and bottom plate of the Urban Enduro model...

i was flying fpv and now i am building a BMW R65 bike :D cool stuff
Hey Thomas. The rear fender you're installing, is that from Vonzeti aswell? How was the delivery time from them?
Great build, dreadful music...ruined it!
I will be working on my 77 R100 this spring and was wondering where you obtained most of your conversion parts such as your fender, subframe etc? Very nice build by the way.
thank you for this video i need wiring diagram extra
Is this the Dark Brown colour or the chestnut?
Hi , what’s the length of the handlebar ?
Cool.
What handlebar are you using?
awsome , how many cans did you use ?
Hi tire size?
Hey, First off: I really love the bike, it's looking so good! I know it's an older video, but I'm currently customizing my own R80 and I was wondering what exhaust pipes you're using/ where you got them? They sound amazing and look even better! Cheers

Ciao chi può aiutarmi sono alto.1.65 vorrei prendere una s (52) mi sembra un po grande? Che ne pensate? grazie.
Heel handige info voor het r80 tot project dat ik bezig ben! Ik ga wel het subframe van walzworks bestellen ;)
😎🤟
Were did you find the bench? Ist Looks amazing!
Hi mate, love the bike! Have you got instagram? thanks
Have you got a instagram?
Hi. I take it you had to remove the centre stand as the old style pipes clash directly with it?
Correct. I found a handy motorcycle jackstand to put it on when parking it for longer periods of time.
@@ThomasC Thanks for confirming, same with the rear brake pedal as well. Swap out for old style. Lovely build. It has given me some great reference points. Cheers
@@tombellis8138 indeed, old style brake pedal with a diy washer (around 1cm wide)
@@ThomasC I am most likely going to copy you on that. I will try and get hold of an old r60, 80, 100 centre stand and see if that will work in between the pipes and still lift the bike. Cheers
@@tombellis8138 I think i tried that, or at least did some research, but the mounting points were too different to get it to match
Love perfection!
It's pretty funny that the place for the logo was filled with putty.
Just got one for $1600😍
I love it. I have R 80/ 70 here in the Philippines too
Great job!
Very stylish one. Great approach - thumbs up!
Hi Thomas, I have the same Vonzeti sub. What size bolts did you use to secure to the bike? I misplaced my hardware and don’t want to get the wrong parts. Thanks
what model of led head light is it ?
Did you sand the rims before painting them black??? I have the same model and like to do the rims also black by myself! Cheers! Andy
Awesome project!!! One question how tall are you and would you recommend this bike for someone 6 feet tall ?
Hey brother I have a question. I bought the same Daytona velona speedometer. Follow a nearly identical wiring to yours and everything works fine beside my RPM. It isn’t jumping all over the place. Do you by chance remember which wire you connect the rpm pulse to? According to the manual it’s should be going to 15 (positive) on the ignition coil tower.
Hey I just finished watching your video I have a BMW R 60 myself but I want to turn into a scrambler inspired by the job that you did. I don’t know much about names of motorcycle parts and things like that it would be great if you could actually if you could give me an idea of names and parts on how you build your custom BMW.
Waar bestel jij onderdelen ?
Is dit het 55cm of 60cm subframe + zadel?? Alvast bedankt.
60cm
Can you give me the reference of the speedometer ?
i need an information , how much a r100 scrambler brand new 7k miles cost ?
Cool video...congrats!!!!!
Hey Thomas. Did you connect the yellow pulse directly to a spade on the coils? And did you connect it to positive or negative?
@@zalobub Ok, I´m sure I didn´t connecr anything there so I´m afraid I can´t really help you any further :-)
How can we find your brother's channel? How can he get any subs if you don't tell us?
Top right corner, where else?
@@ThomasC I'm on an old ipad, not ideal but all I got. on screen links don't appear. I'm used to links being in the description.
@@dannyjonze well I made these videos as a hobby and am not getting any income out of them. We´re not begging for subs or patreon donations. I already took the time to make them as they are and I make it possible to gather a lot of information just from my videos, this way people have a lot more info than I had when I built my bike. I´m not going to change everything specially for you...
Very Nice! Here's my '83 R80 build: czcams.com/video/KBKjLM-bwDI/video.html
Hi Thomas. Can you provide a link for your rear light? Thanks
Hi Thomas, I have the Haynes manual and diagram allready, but where did you find the additional diagram at 2:00? I would love a copy BR Chris from DK
@@christoffermuhlbach1699 We just took the original BMW speedo apart and took the GEN lamp out, then we traced its wire all the way back to the diode board and shortened evertyhing so the light would fit inside that front compartment. Plenty of insulation around it and a zip-tie to hold it in place, works perfectly. I always put the Voltage on my display so I can keep an eye on the battery and if it's charging or not. About the emergency switch I have no idea, it's too long ago :-) If it refers to the kill switch on the right hand side of the bars, it works fine without anything being connected to the speedo, as far as I know. Good luck with the rest of the build!
What are your gloves called in this video?
it's so nice and inspiring to watch this!

Bella ma rumorosa. In Italia ti arresterebbero 😁😁😁😁😄😄😄😄😃😃😀
Hey. Thx for the vids. Regarding the tires. You dident have an issue with the front rim being 19" and putting a 18" on it?
@@ThomasC Sweet jeebus that was fast! Thanks.. I just looked into it.. Its because I just bought a R100 RT and its 19" front and 18 back. My old R80 Mono from 85 had 18 and 18 K60's on it.
@@zalobub if I remember correctly (it´s a year ago) mine worked fine without replacing it with anything else. I found it strange but since it´s a 1992 model maybe it´s a bit different from the older ones. On my brothers´ R65 (1986 I think) we did have to include the lamp into the system, I took the lamps´ housing out of the dash, wired it directly at the diode board and put the lamp in. It´s all insulated and works fine, he simply has a lit diode board now :-)
Nice
hey cool video man!! Greets from Luxembourg :)
