My buddy Jason released another build of his, this time a vintage airhead converted into a cool scrambler. #scrambler #motorcycles #bmwmotorrad

I have one of these too but mine sucks big time. It doesn't break well, the clutch gets pulled when I turn, leaks oil, leaks gas, battery doesn't charge properly. And all this after I fixed some things on it. Next on my list to rebuild the carburetors and then the engine. So far it was eating money like crazy.

The brake lines are mounted the wrong way around. The bleeder nipple has to sit on the top. It's difficult to achieve but it's possible with spacers to fit it the right way. sorry.

A lot of mixed feeling on this build. The black on black with just the right amount of chrome and silver showing through is Gorgeous. The seat is a big miss, glad to hear that you plan on some changes there. The clip-ons and snowflake rims mounted with knobs makes the functional part of my brain scream in pain. So chew those knobs away and put some proper bob tires on there. Never really been a fan of wrapped exhausts. Always feels like the easy way out of covering up problems. But I guess it fits the split personality of "cover up rock dings on a scrambler" theme.

I like your opinions, those are some great points. the color combo is great, i agree. I told him one speed bump on that seat and adios to the pants.
@Rossi593 Жыл бұрын
It’s a nice machine but the tyres are just too extreme for bike that will never go off-road. The ATE front brakes were around until 1980. I love the look but they’re marginal at best (I’ve had 4 R100 variants with them). The rear looks scary. I’d worry about the seat dumping the rider on to that very bumpy tyre! Ouch. Carb/throttle balance is critical on these and it sounds off. Set up properly they’re excellent and easy to ride pulling from tickover in top. Have fun!

Honestly i do dislike the seat, as mentioned in the video. That said, even including the seat, this is hands down the single most gorgeous r100 i have ever seen. It's gnarly and elegant at the same time, how does that even works? But the builder pulled it off somehow. Nothing missing but also nothing added. This is pure.
@spycon6910 ай бұрын
