Thank you now i can build this on my own

[@creigmacc]

Happy to see the multi plate oil bath clutch. Easy fix up front like that.

Una maravilla de la tecnología alemana. Luce espectacular en las motocicletas.

Whoever made this video bravo

[@hughc023]

Great video . . .

[@RTK_Callum-Miles]

i love it when see the hole engine and then it narrows it down to one point by making the other components transparent, obviously you can't to this in real life so this is why i love computer design and OMG only 4 other comments i'm shocked

Having been a motorcycle mechanic I have to say that the 'boxer' engine has only one 'debatable' disadvantage when fitted to a motorcycle, that is the width.

[@gregfowler9835]

I guess it would only be debatable amongst non boxer owners. Those who own them know them and understand them,and would never question it.

[@byronknipe9028]

The early model B.M.W. motorcycles used a 2 shaft gearbox with the input shaft rotating at crankshaft revs, which, due to the rotating mass of the clutch plate made gear changes slow. In 1955 the 3 shaft gearbox was introduced resulting in much smoother gear changes.

[@Heavywall70]

Hell I AM wider than that motor LOL Seriously though I ride an r1100s sport tourer and “width” hasn’t ever been an issue How close are these people getting to stuff when they ride?

[@jjjjjjjjrifufjssjosskenf]

The cylinders keeps my legs warm on cold days

[@billdirlam744]

BMW manufactures other engine designs besides the boxer twins. The boxer engine has been updated many times to satisfy the traditional BMW motorcycle rider but they aren't limited by it. For me I always appreciated the simplicity of the early air cooled BMW motorcycles but like all manufacturers of internal combustion engines they've had to keep up with ever more stringent emission standards as well as stricter noise regulations. All motorcycles have gotten more complicated in order to compete and participate in the marketplace.

[@Pertamax7-HD]

nice double cooler

[@thepunisher1951]

very cool

[@sharmannobody7889]

I am about to replace the header pipes for MIVV headers that delete the cat and flap. I will keep the stock tail can. Stock air filter. The question is do you need to do a remap for this MOD? I see a few people fit the booster plugs, or throttle plug-in device to fuel up low rpm range. And some say there is no need because the brains of the bike will adjust to the correct fuel, air mix all on its own. Your thoughts on this, or your mechanical magicians expertise would be greatly appreciated so I can rest my mind and give my 2014 1200 GS Adventure the best result. Thanks. Love my BMW.

[@boboutelama5748]

One question : Bmw has this cool running and beloved engine at disposal. Why are they not making a car in the style of the mini, and put this thing in it. It would be a great little car.

[@Heavywall70]

@@The_Touring_Jedi If you know of something better, more reliable and tried and true like a BMW Boxer, Please share it because I REALLY want that bike.

[@LansaDiag]

​@@Heavywall70 Any Japanese motorcycle manufacturer easily outbeats the BMW boxers. Less complex, way more refined and costs half of what the germans ask. If you want a fun classic looking engine, try a Guzzi transverse Vtwin, those are way more fun than the german boxers.

[@fransgabler]

Nice animation, I don't think the vertical flow is an important development as for exemple the wet clutch in front of the machine and the dual cranckshaft. I don't think the dry clutch will ever return. It was since the roaring 20 a misfit, too heavy, vulnerableand and expensive to replace.

[@payneinthebutt3098]

Hmm, i never noticed that the transmission system is in tandem with the engine, is this common on motorcycles?

[@BavarianBiker]

would like to install this on my BMW 650 :D

[@jesseleelong2824]

Would love to see a twin turbo one made

[@Jamielenzen]

Can anyone tell me what the actual motors called not the bike that they put it in. I'm trying to find parts for my swap and so Im having trouble finding some that aren't the actual bike parts since I got rid of the wrecked thing. I intend to swap the motor into something bad ass and unusual but need done replacement parts and some performance upgrades to move the beast

[@JohnDoe-bf1fw]

@@Heavywall70 My R1100R has 140,000 miles with original pistons and rings. My guess is that the new bikes are not as good. I don't trust BMW. They price gouge. It still cost a fortune to replace all the little stuff that goes bad and I do all the work myself. The new bikes are better engineered to cost even more money. The concept is to finance than trade in every couple years. The biker that buys 2nd hand eventually pays the difference at the service or parts department. The hourly worker is priced out of BMW and has to get a crappy Honda.

[@WhiskeyGulf71]

Changed from the nasty, split the bike in two to change, dry clutch to a wet multi plate clutch !

[@nickmeier9356]

Except split the bike to work on alternator !

[@nomadraidrrs.1075]

между гильзами цилиндров двигателя должен быть зазор хотя бы 3 мм если нет зазора это брак

[@jessezandstra1]

so why aren't these boxer engines place vertically? It would make the bike less wide right?

[@The_Touring_Jedi]

V could also work, problem is German want to save their tradition with those boxer engines

[@KATTHUNDER]

Better cooling

[@EscapePlan97]

SunsetHaste it's because the boxer engine has a low center of gravity, which makes the bike handle beautifully.

[@trevorsmit2454]

the push rod engine was good but this 2016 should have been the second gen nothing in betwin i want it

@@nikolasnonis1131 As I know BMW Motorrad till '80s never had lightweight bikes economical engines and above all water-cooled variable-speed motors. Today BMW present some great ideas but they are far way from Bavarian philosophy and that is a fact (Also you have a look the changes in BMW handle bar switches...)

[@feuerreiteroderso8655]

It isn't too bad. Most of bmw's are easy too build and work on. If it's hard, then you are probably missing something. The only really complex thing, you shouldn't touch is the gearbox.

@@feuerreiteroderso8655 Ever owned a modern BMW motorcycle? I have. 750GS & 1200RT. These aren't bikes build to work on by yourself. Everything is software locked so that it will always display a visit dealer warning. Way too much technology in them.

[@MrGranovski]

I owned 8 BMW twins years ago. They were awesome rides but required big buck servicing. Plus the engines corrode and there's nothing you can do it. I still love the old boxers but I would never go with any BMW again. NOT reliable, lots of high cost servicing; and the newer ones don't handle as well and look like shite.
