Yes please!!!

This is so cool man!! My dad gave me his 2003 k1200rs and it runs great. It’s a very nice bike, with lots of HP. He tried turning it into a track bike by removing anything that wasn’t necessary/ added weight. But the time it was handed down to me, it was in shambles, with half the wiring harness cut out, no ABS, no nothing! I had to figure it all out and splice the wires back together. And mind you, I am not a natural at this stuff. But I’m proud to say that it is fully fixed and I’ve been riding it happily ever since! I’m excited to see how your project turns out.

[@corner.custom]

Great story, glad you've got it all figured out. I'm planning to go for a K1100 wiringloom so then I can delete the whole ABS and make everything a lot simpler. I already showed some footage of that in my latest K12 build video

[@gewasse]

Great work like always! The quality of your videos is getting better with each upload 👍🏼👍🏼

[@corner.custom]

Thanks 👏🏻 Always nice to hear!

[@Freebyrd1991]

LOVE THIS VIDEO. I just bought one of these and having a teardown video is exactly what I needed to see. Want to be familiar with the locations of sensors and alk the other components and how to get to them. I give your video an A+. Thank you for filming and narrating your work. You are a great contributor to us DIYers that need a little help along the way. 😊!!

[@corner.custom]

Thanks man, comments like these really makes the effort on filming and editing worth it! Hope to share the new video soon on the rebuild of the engine

[@mfzavala]

Zeer informatief! een genot om naar te kijken, ben zeer benieuwd hoe het verder gaat, ga zo door! goeds, Marcel

[@corner.custom]

Kijk dat is mooi om te horen 👍🏼

[@antonisp6629]

excellent progress and very good voice over and explaining

[@corner.custom]

Thanks man that's great to hear. Takes a lot of time and effort to do the narration, so good to know it's being enjoyed!

Classic mate and I love how you just carry the whole engine like it's 20kg!

[@corner.custom]

Lightweight 💪🏼😁

Thanks man!

[@g.b.7990]

Superhandig! Door dit soort video's lukt het me eindelijk om m'n k100 uit elkaar te halen! thanks!

[@corner.custom]

Kijk dat is mooi om te horen! Er staan nog meer how-to videos op mijn kanaal die je wellicht ook verder kunnen helpen

[@djolecar88]

Doing the same build. I have a 04 K1200 but gt. I kind of like the naked plastic gas tank, gives it a mad max look.

[@corner.custom]

Ok cool! A Mad Max look would be nice too, but I'm leaning towards a more BMW R18 looking tank. But not yet sure how to make that work

[@brianvanderheyden8927]

We take the engine for a walk 😂 dat maakt men zondag goed! Doe zo verder!

[@corner.custom]

Haha kijk mooi om te horen💪🏼👌🏼

[@AlexanderCB1982]

Make longer vids. Love the content

[@corner.custom]

Great to get feedback like this 👍🏼. I'm working on a (longer) video for the paint/Cerakote part and engine rebuild

[@doctor.driv399]

We are still waiting for more :)

[@corner.custom]

Haha I'm busy editing the video as we speak. There's a lot of progress done by now. Try to upload the video this year 😁

[@doctor.driv399]

@@corner.custom thx. I also want to buy similar bike. I'm wondering what tank will you use?

[@corner.custom]

@doctor.driv399 I'm just at the point where I can do some research about that. The engine is rebuild and the frame is now on, so I can start searching for a tank that not only fits, but also gives the look that I'm aiming for. Any suggestions?

[@doctor.driv399]

@@corner.custom Somewhere in web, I found K1200RS with Hornets tank. In my opinion looks very nice. I dont like clipon handlebars, i prefere classic handlebar, like bandit 1200, XJR etc. So I will go in this direction, classic handlebar, tank and seat from hornet.

Tío! Eres muy máquina! Me gustan mucho tus proyectos renovando cada detalle! Tengo ganas de ver como queda esta k1200... Sin duda un proyecto muy interesante con un modelo muy difícil de modificar! Ya tengo ganas de ver el siguiente video! Mucha fuerza para este proyecto 💪✊

[@corner.custom]

Thanks man for following. It's a challenging bike for sure and haven't seen a whole lot of other bikes been modified. I've got everything painted and Cerakoted so on the next video we'll have a working engine again 👍🏼

Ok great! I've got the project rolling again, videos out. Hoping to finish this project this summer

[@AshP274]

awesome teardown, and informative!

[@corner.custom]

Great to hear, more is coming soon!

[@franciscoseijo]

Beautiful work and videos! Keep them coming! Quick question, what is the regulation for bike modification in the Netherlands? I just moved and I would like to do a similar project, but I do not know what is allowed in terms of bike modification (suspension, subframe, breaks, etc.) Congratulation again for the work!

[@corner.custom]

Thank you man, that's great to hear. Got new content coming up soon! Where your from? The rules in The Netherlands aren't that strict when you compare it to Germany with the TUV. If you make sure your bike is solid, with good parts you come a long way. They tend to focus on the (distance) between the indicators, DB (WOK-melding) and good visibility on the licenseplate

[@franciscoseijo]

Great! Glad to hear rules aren´t that strict. I'm from Venezuela. So far, loving The Netherlands and their people. Again, congratulations on the videos and projects. Looking forward to the next ones! @@corner.custom

When deleting the ABS were you able to reuse the stock brake lines?

I still haveto start rebuild the bike, but I know now that you can't reuse the stock brake lines

[@LS-uv9gg]

God, I hope you don't go full Hipster and finish this off with giant knobby tires, lol. I saw one yesterday (a Hipster) on a full fairing R1, with Continental TKC80's, a brown "old distressed" looking brand new Bomber jacket, torn knee skinny jeans, Keds, and a brand new '70's bubble face shield narrow jaw candy apple metal flake helmet, wobbling around a street corner in the city. It's not a good look, dudes.

[@corner.custom]

Great story😅 No knobby tires on this build, no worries about that. I'll ditch the K12 wheels for some GS spoked wheels and they'll have normal street tires with some custom fenders on it 👌🏼

[@battleshipnewjerseysailor4738]

Because you tore it down this far, it would be advised to replace the rod and crank bearings

[@corner.custom]

I'm thinking about doing that

[@battleshipnewjerseysailor4738]

If you ask other mechanics, they would give the same advice, at least take it apart while you can to check the condition of the bearings, then if there nothing wrong replace them anyway, for peace of mind

[@corner.custom]

@@battleshipnewjerseysailor4738 Thanks for the heads-up man, I'll take it in account

[@ronyroadster1650]

niet aankomen zou ik zeggen, deze lagers worden zelden gereviseerd zelfs niet bij hoge km standen, wat wel heel verstandig is, is om even de dynamo los te gooien en een setje nieuwe rubbers bij Kparts.holland te halen want als deze oud worden en los zitten, geeft het een rammelgeluid wat erg storend en verwarrend kan zijn.

[@corner.custom]

@ronyroadster1650 Heb voor de zekerheid navraag gedaan, ook bij Kpartsholland.com en het is gezien de conditie en km stand niet nodig. Deze blokken kunnen met gemak een hoge km stand hebben. De dynamo lager zijn al binnen 👍🏼

[@takemebacktothen]

Its called laser cleaning. Get yourself the machine and cut your engine and parts cleaning time to a quarter. Your engine cleaning techniques are obsolete in comparison to what ceramic laser cleaning offers.

[@corner.custom]

I know I know, but as a enthusiast that's a high price to pay

[@Tirah5]

@@corner.custom a 200 watt ceramic laser cleaner is not super expensive
