Errrr….. return of the Boxer 2 Valve videos ???

Thanks for sharing your very interesting and informative video presentation.

I wish I had an R90/6 and wish I lived closer to you!

BMW r90/6 carburetor reconditioning

I am redoing an identical bike, and finding these tutorials absolutely invaluable. I started with the carbs and an oil change just to see if I could get the bike started, but now realize how much I SHOULD do before I even think abut riding. BTW, this is very much a barn find, too, so probably better go through the whole thing.

Excellent viddy. Where is the auto advance and retard unit?

Again thanks for this video.

Does it matter which high tension cable from the coil goes to the left or right side? I can’t see where it’s covered in the instructions. Thank you.

Hi @Boxer2valve. I recently bought a BMW R60/6. And since there is a little light missing in the dashboard. I started watching some videos on youtube. And I came across your videos. They are really good 👍Nice that there are some who care to explain how things should be done. so I can also understand how it is done. so I can also understand how it is done. And another cable for the instrument lighting, where can it be bought? p.s. I am from Denmark. Have a nice day.

Hi do you have to lub the final drive gears?

As a recent airhead owner… Your videos are awesome! Thank you.

Really great videos. Clear, concise explanation. Thank you!

You guys are have so much hart and compassion, it almost restores my faith in youth of today ;-)

I recall 32 years ago, I had oil leaking after replacing the main seal. As you know, the seal seats on the outside of the flywheel boss, but I suspected it was leaking between the crank shaft end and the boss ID, coming out around the 5 bolts. I stopped it by laying a small bead of RTV down into that recess. It stopped the leak but as a non-professional, I questioned the fix. I was delighted to discover in your video that this was in fact needed when you mentioned that in model years 75 or 76 BMW added an ‘O’ ring. My R90S is a 1974 so that was missing. Thanks for your great videos. Regards, Andy

I like your videos, but glanced over the circlips for the piston pins. Not easy! boing!!!!!! Be careful they don't go into the open engine. You have to roll them in, with a pair of good needle nose.

Hello, I want to replace the spring of the kickstarter. Does anyone have a video for disassembling and assembling this? Many thanks

what is the exact method for such perfect exterior cleaning please ? 🤔

Top!!!

Thanks very very helpful,

Terrible camera angles and poor lighting makes it difficult to follow

William @boxer2valve, thank you for your very informative video series. Question: In another video, you show a home-made timing cover puller. Wouldn't this make an ideal tool to hold the crankshaft while working on the clutch/rear main seal (assuming that you keep the timing cover bolts in place)? After watching your R90 video, it occurred to me that that might be much more secure than the strap you used in this video.

Overall the videos are really helpful William. But this one isn't good enough. Not enough close ups. Bushing bit for example. What allen key size was cut down. It's like you guys hurried through this. Which is disappointing as I purchased the downloads and I'll be frustrated looking at your arm in the close ups instead of seeing what you're doing.

About that little clamp at the bottom of the bezel; does the hinge or the open part face the bucket? Sick of having the old stock bezel fall out on bumpy roads.

Thank you!

Thank you, couldn't of done this job without you sharing your knowledge. much appreciated.😊

Thank you. 2 things: (1) I find it a PAIN in this SIMPLEST task of putting the tiniest o-ring on the outside mixture screw - worrying about overstretching it or not damaging the needle on the screw ….?! (2) Last step: You should stick your finger in the carb throat and lift the CV slide and make sure it descends smoothly on its own. I just got a couple diaphragms from one of the major aftermarket guys (generally good) and the diaphragms were of rubber that was slightly too heavy, and the slide would not descend! (Also, the outside diameter of the diaphragm was very slightly larger than it should be and didn’t drop readily into the recess like OEM does. )

William hi. I have set my Vape ignition timing up exactly as you and the instructions state but I am getting pre- ignition or pinking as we say here in the UK when under load i.e going up hills. I have retarded the ignition by moving the rotor by approx the diameter of the pickup to stop this which I do not believe can be the right thing. Do you have any suggestions so I can get it back into the location it should be in.? WhenI strobe it now the OT is way off. Many thanks for any help and suggestions

Love your videos. I know it takes a lot of time and effort to make them and I certainly appreciate!

Always brilliant..! Many thanks!

Good morning, the mirror threads on the left are stripped. Left hand threads as you know. Do you have helicoil or replace the leaver mount?

Rebuilt another pair of carbs. This time on my R 80 RT. Watched the video step-by-step. You are the mentor looking over my shoulder

Always nice to watch! Have a question is it possible to lower the fork without cutting the forks. Some use a washer method. Could this be done for lets say 5cm? Where should the washer be placed? I have a bmw r80rt from 1985. Thx

Good to see your back. Always informative and educational, but with a light touch. I don't even own a BMW, but still enjoy your work.

Thank you so very much this was a big help.

William, thank you for explaining the Points set up and Timing of the Ignition system.

Hi, I have a 1978 R100/7 and think i need to replace the ignition switch ( because key does not turn). Do you sell these? If so how much? If not would you be able to tell me where I can get one? Thanks a bunch. Anthony

Thank you very much

Have just replaced the fuel cap gasket on my /5. Your video was most instructive, thank you William

What your shop number I have a 1974 r90/s I need some parts

On 1983 R65 snowflake rims, there's a shoulder on the wheel hub. The outer races must be removed from their respective sides. Save yourselves the heartache

Great video. I’m rebuilding my carbs for my 83 R100RT. I missed that y’all had rebuild kits for 40mm carbs.

I love freeze the race .gors in like butter lol

Thanks William! I’m so excited to have a classic 83 R100RT/hack, to work on. It’s my first BMW, but my 15th motorcycle. Your videos have demystified the bike for me and the parts y’all offer are what I need to put the old rig in order.

First ever BMW....thanks for the channel . Love the slow precise explanations

Sooo cool ! Salutations de France !

Very helpful video thank you very much. One question, some models have a felt piece that goes in the cables and the adjustment mechanism, my question is if those pieces of felt are necessary with new cables? Any help will be appreciated, thanks

I've been looking profusely for information on how the throttle cam assembly works and at 7:30 you give the exact info needed. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge to help us keep these bikes on the road.

Hello There! Recently I bought a Vape charging system form you and installed in my 1953 R67/2 (Charging system only). I installed everything very carefully as instructions shown. Before I connected the battery I checked three times all connections, checked all ground points and also installed a fuse in + battery point and another fuse in main switch (lamp). Right now I do not have any power in my bike so I checked again, all good. Today I watch again this video and realized you connected the original battery positive wire (30) to the battery (Both, original wire and Vape regulator positive battery)... The instructions only show me to connect the positive wire from Vape regulator... (As I have right now). Do I must connect also the original positive battery wire (30) to the battery??? please help!!! thank youy very much!

Your team's videos have been mission critical in my 1975 R90/6 rebuild. I know it's a lot of work to make these videos. I just want you to know some of us deeply appreciate the work you guys do to put them up 🍻

thank you, William! so helpful as always.
