BMW chain conversion
« on: September 09, 2017, 10:20:27 AM »
I had fun this year but my wife hates my bike so I decided to build another APS based on the BMW R100RT engine. Mainly because I have several sitting around the shop.
Does everybody know of a chain drive conversion kit for the BMW airheads or can recommend a 90 degree gearbox that will handle 100hp?

contact Randy Smith.   He built a chain conversion for a 750cc BMW boxer. He posts on here as "Rchop".

Thanks Slim,
I found Randy on Facebook. He is evacuating his home in Florida but told me he used the Von Ruden gearbox and I found pictures of his bike. It's time to build. :D
