Ultimate BMW K100 Cafe Racer Build & Riding!

[@davidmanchester2182]

Beautiful build !! No stone left unturned on this one. Love it!!

[@corner.custom]

Thanks Dave, that's how we do 😁✌

[@martire09able]

Quanto costa una trasformazione così?

[@corner.custom]

Approx 7k euro in parts alone

[@martire09able]

@@corner.custom grazie,pensavo molto di più..complimenti,ottimo lavoro

[@corner.custom]

It can me a lot more, but the building costs are pretty low due to doing most of all the work myself. The 7k is without labor though

[@chrisjet10001]

Thank you for not "hacking" this project together! no rattle can special here! nicely done...

[@corner.custom]

Haha no rattlecans for me, only Cerakote and 2k paint! Thanks man, there's much more to come!

[@marksztary340]

This is the beauiest build i’ve seen in a while. Perfect,precise work! I want to build one,and I learned a lot from it even though,the wiring made me a little nervous. Again,congrats on your skills bro! 💪🏼

[@corner.custom]

Thanks man, there are more K builds on my channel for more inspiration. Also there's a dedicated how-to video on the wiring, that will definitely help you out 👍

[@bughi1000]

Very nice, but a word of advice. COVER THAT ECU UNIT UNDER THE SEAT. I got caught in the rain after I rebuild my bike and the rear wheel splashed water on the ECU under the seat. I had to push the bike for about an hour to get to work. The bike would start in the rain but as soon as I was twisting the throttle it would stop. Opened the ECU and drying it solved the problem. I learn my lesson the hard way so who ever wants to relocate the ECU be aware. Love your builds mate. 👍👍

[@corner.custom]

Thanks for letting me know. For this build I did make a plastic cover afterwards just because I wasn't too sure about what you just mentioned. Sounds like it was a smart move to do! Thanks man!

[@jimmyw12]

my k100 has some throttle issues, i’ll go full throttle and it’ll only top out at 20 mph, and it is often weak. do u think that it’s because i left it out in the rain or would it just be the injectors?

[@corner.custom]

Sounds pretty bad! Does it run idle at all? Did you swap over the injector to rule it out? How about the fuel filter/hoses?

[@MentaFlick]

that the most beautiful looking bike i have seen in quite a while.

[@corner.custom]

Thanks man!! Maybe you like my newer K100 build ever better in Bugatti Chiron Ruby metallic red

[@Enruler]

I wish I knew more about motorcycles. I really want to build one of these, it's my dream bike.

[@corner.custom]

Just start easy and do your research before you start with certain parts of the build and you'll be fine

[@IASONASful]

Amazing work !!!! So beautifull and hot sound!!!!

[@corner.custom]

Thanks man 👊🏼👍🏼

[@marckomen3714]

Nice job, excellent. Where dit you put the choke handle that is on the handlebar's left side? Or is there no need because of the new injectors? Groeten.

[@corner.custom]

I deleted the choke on the handlebar. Even without the new injectors the bike starts without the choke. I've left the lever from the choke on the TB's so when necessary you can manually open up the choke

[@ZEUS-eg8jw]

[@dannybobyk5491]

Amazing work! I just picked up my k100 and am trying to plan my build. Beautiful work like yours helps the inspiration. I am wondering, which brake / clutch levers did you choose how have you decided to organize your buttons? turn left / horn and turn right / ? I love your power button location. Thank you for sharing your work.

[@corner.custom]

I believe the brake/clutch leavers were Brembo Grimeca and buttons from Motone. Left controllers did the left indicator and horn, right controller did the lights and the right indicator. Basically the only buttons really needed and the starterbutton in the headstem ofcoure. There's more K (how-to) content on my channel which could help you out

[@tavibyte9287]

I am watching it before going to sleep for 1 week :) call me crazy. What paint did you use for the engine ? When i built my xj900 cafe the only option i had was to use thermic spray cans. Is there a better option ?

[@corner.custom]

There are multiple options to go by. With this engine I've chosen to use a direct to metal 2K paint, called Selamix. You can also go for Cerakote C-series. Just as long you'll take the right preparations you'll be fine

[@kz6fittycent]

[@slywe1694]

Where'd you put the ECU? 7:30 Is there a replacement for the big honkin bosch ecu? I'm trying to simplify my wiring. This is so beautiful and tidy!

[@corner.custom]

At 7:30 is the Motogadget M-unit. That's the replacement for the big relay/fusebox. I've put the OEM ECU under the seat. Just check out my channel, there's a dedicated K100 how-to wiring video there. Also tips & tricks regarding the M-unit 👍🏼

[@briananderson2219]

That bike is incredible. Looks like super high-quality work as well. Scrambler? There’s not one iota of scrambler in or on that bike. Phenomenal bike but no scrambler. Not even a spoke wheels. This bike build doesn’t need them it is completely gorgeous as it is. But the scramblers need spokes for multiple reasons

[@corner.custom]

Thank you for the feedback. It's hard to pigeonhole it that exactly meets all the criteria for a scrambler build, but this is the closest in my opinion
