Approximately 10,400 miles ago I had the 2:54 gear set
from a R1200CL installed in my K1100 housing. Work done by Anton
Largiader @
http://largiader.com/shop/. All seals and bearings except
the large crown bearing were replaced.
Not cheap to do - but not a job for the back yard mechanic either. Gear lash
and preload have to be set right the first time or you get to buy more
expensive BMW parts. Takes a little more clutch slip starting out - especially
two up - other wise the engine has plenty of torque for the new gears.
At 70 mph - 4000 rpm on tach - not sure how accurate speedo is. About
20-25 more miles on a tank of gas .??
Will include two good used final drive pivot bearings.
Also the rear wheel will now have 4 bolts (like the K1200RS/LT; Oilheads) instead of 5.
I'll send a pic if you want one - still looks the same as before.
