Here's a video with a bloke fitting that tach which might be handy. He's a nice guy too.

Nice one for the link.
I was hoping to run the pick from the engine and not the front wheel and also don't know if that has light built in?

Re: bmw hotrod project "schnell Brutus"
Been awhile as been side tracked with other work and my vtr
Done the seat and shaped it up now and it looks cool!
Also messing around with side stand (BMW go to the left) so I've stuck it on the right (there is good reason for this)
Rear light sorted just need number plate
Then the exhaust
Need money for that
Pichoors so far

Re: bmw hotrod project "schnell Brutus"
It's a flat four
Yes it will be little warm in the winter!
They have having some baffles put in them so they look fully open but should be not to loud

Re: bmw hotrod project "schnell Brutus"
If anyone else fancies doing a project like this I've got 2 of these damn BMW's in my workshop, taking up space, getting in the way and generally pi$$ing me off. K100LT's I'll sell the pair for £900. one mot'd and taxed but has warped discs, the other semi stripped no injectors.
oops, Sounds like a for sale add
Don't expect anyone to have them though
Just fed up with them and want them gone
