Hats off to the film maker. Great camera work. Perfect color temp. SMOOTH. Factory as expected from Germans. Thanks

[@rosewood1]

Thanks for sharing how my R1200R engine was made. It's a work of mechanical artistry. I used to make gear boxes literally by hand for GMH back in 1979. We would fit the counter gears and washers by hand. Syncros worked by hand until slid reasonably.! Lol

Watching the production of boxer engines is incredible. I love my GS.

[@giuliokw1]

Really intresting, i like the assembly station and clamp system especially when use pneumatics holding devieces, all is optimised for faster and efficient operations, it's very difficult make some mistakes during the engine assembly's, everything is clean and organised, but the top absolute is the test fixture measument of the entire engine that use multiple sensors to evaluate the engine performances. Thanks BMW, well done!

[@MegaPoxie]

Great to see people actually assembling them. I initially wondered why are they so expensive but after seeing this I'm thinking how come they are so cheap. Quality engineering and no I'm not German!

[@johnob1824]

best engineering in the world

[@joemakhasa2095]

Extremely an outstanding job, I like how passionate and the concentration they put in the hole process of assembling each of every components, no wonder why bmw bikes doesn't come cheap

[@12345fowler]

I ma not sure blue collars worker are "passionate" about any of this. This is factory job for God's sake.

[@coryhill8523]

It's comforting to know my engine went through that same process. 70000 miles without an issue.

The assembly machines are more complex and interesting than the engine's themselves.

One engine, two or more engines. It's not difficult. No apostrophe.

[@seanhunter111]

BMW have been making boxer engines for 97 years now. They are wonderful engines and you can tell when you ride one that they have been continuously making small improvements all through that time. I rode a boxer nearly 20 years ago and just got another one. The improvement during that time is really noticeable yet they have still kept the character that I liked about that bike. Really fascinating to see how those engineering improvements translate to the process. The new bike I have got is 1 generation newer than this one (ie the new 1250 shiftcam boxer).

[@TucsonDude]

I own both a 2014 S1000R and a 2014 R1200GS. I like them both, but the GS is still clunky while the S is japanese refined.

[@elij.s.7580]

Looks like really high build quality, I like that it actually uses helical cut gears in the transmission.

[@fashionskiller]

Helical gears is a standard

[@magnusengelmark]

fashionskiller Yes it is standard. The reverse gear in cars at least used to be straight cut, hence the noise from the gearbox when reversing :) cheaper and meets the requirements.

[@mikem302]

Straight gears are stronger.. helical are smoother

[@Polorigolo35]

Early Citroëns used Herringbone gears, like double opposed helical gears... This eliminated the axial trust produced by a single helical gear, while keeping the smooth running, but it was just too costly! And that's why the Citroën logo is a twin V-shape

[@TucsonDude]

Yes, I noticed that also. Makes me glad I own a GS.

[@glennrueger8689]

So nice to watch and listen without music.

[@JamesParus]

Coming to work in the mornings and hearing the V8/10/12 motors running in the test cells was something to behold.

[@NorceCodine]

I have also seen the Volkswagen factory in action, and I had the same impression - nothing what the employees do is physically hard or very demanding precision-wise, but they work at the exact same speed for hours without missing a beat. Everybody does only his part, nothing less, nothing more, and if everybody does just that, then the whole puzzle just falls into place.
