William, you're a lifesaver! My own '84 R100RT restoration has been made really enjoyable thanks to your videos. Thanks so much for making the effort. Chris
Rock on!
Super helpful! Salute my good Sir!
I wish I had a mechanic like you before I wasted so much time and money with mechanics that pretend they know about airheads and don't know a thing. Please keep making more great videos!
These video are extremely helpful. You are really impressive! Your passion really transpire from the video and from the detailed explanation. Thanks!!!
Glad you like them!
Excellent video, very informative and detailed, created by a professional engineer. Thanks.
Wow, thanks!
man i cant thank you enough pal i just got out of the old Japanese bikes (except the three favorites i jockey around so my partner thinks ive only got one), i bought a r75/5 which im stripping down and rebuilding everything....all those tricks like the crankshaft holding strap are so valuable and you offer em up like they are nothing, your a saint and im hoping the powers that be treat you like the great great mechanic and human being you are! thanks again i really appreciate and value every one of your videos!
Thanks very much for you kind words. I'm so happy that you can benefit from what we are doing!!!
Thanks for this information. I’m particularly impressed that while you’re letting folks know you have certain tools for sale, you give tips on how to make the tool too. It’s clear you love what you’re doing and in teaching your craft! Good luck with your move to North Carolina!
Fantastic work. Really informative. Thankyou.

I have a 1974 R-90 /6 that seems to have lost 1st gear. Not sure just yet what I am getting into but this video is helpful thank towards a rebuild. Great work thanks.
Good luck! Hope that you can get first gear sorted out!
Are there two OT marks ? One for each cylinder, how do you tell if the cylinder you're working on is using the correct OT mark ?
Thanks for the great video, how do I know when I have to replace the Clutch parts? You replaced it with a newer version right? Could I do that as well with my 1977 R100/7 ? Thanks a gain for all the helpful videos!
When the clutch starts to slip, or if you notice oil leaking excessively from the area between motor and gearbox, you'll want to have a look at the clutch. If none of the above, ride. Thanks for your comments!
This stuff is so helpful. I know basics of mechanic procedures, but how could I know about (without any BMW airhead experience) that inside washer that could fall off? Thank you, thank you, thank you, for sharing your knowledge with us!
William, how do you keep the flywheel/clutch assembly from rotating when you remove the clutch bolts? Do you have an allen wrench on the alternator? Or did you already have the strap on the alternator, and that's enough to keep the engine from rotating? Thanks again for these great videos!
Ian: Imagine the bolt that you are loosening at 9:00 looking at the flywheel from the rear of the bike. Position your tool so that it is vertical, facing up to 12:00. When you crack it loose, the flywheel is less likely to turn and the bolt will loosen. If that doesn't work, place a flat screwdriver through the timing hole and into the teeth of the starter ring gear of the flywheel.
@@boxer2valve Thanks so much! You know, at first I was comparison price shopping for parts, but I don't bother to now. Your prices are good, but more important to me, your service is great, and the fact you take time to answer questions here is greater!
My crank slid forward because the strap I used broke. How do I tell if the front thrust bearing fell off :(
If the thrust washer fell off, the crankshaft will not turn when the flywheel bolts are tightened. First replace the strap. Then you can try reinstalling the flywheel and screw in the bolts. Just finger tighten at first and you will be able to turn the crankshaft easily. Now very carefully tighten 1 of the crankshaft bolts very slightly and continue to turn the crankshaft back and forth. If the movement of the crankshaft gets hard or locks up, STOP. The thrust washer probably fell off. If after tightening one bolt, the crank still spins freely, tighten another, then all and if it still turns freely, take a deep breath and a sigh of relief and torque the bolts.
Thank you@@boxer2valve
YUP, My luck, It fell off :( Full tear down coming right up LOL
@@rotory2002 I hope you get it resolved. I have removed my flywheele. I hope The crank didn't move!
Ok but where do I add the gear oil
There is a plug on the left side of the gearbox, just above the shift lever. That's where you add the oil. Fill to the bottom of the hole.
Thankyou I didn't even see that ok
another 'trick": place material under generator cover and on top of Alt rotor
Tomorrow, Lord willing, I will strap my alternator. My flywheele is off now! Rear main seal instaled! Have mercy Father! In Jesus name
Try focus on the object at hand, rather than the talking head
