After waiting 7 months for the delivery of my 2022 Triple Black RT with the classic forged wheels, I finally brought it home last Saturday. What a piece of art❤️
My father worked at the misile base in White Sands New Mexico when he was in the army, and one of the things that they did to teach them about being a good machinist and assemblymen was to take apart Messerschmidt engines to look at. He said that they were never able to replicate the precision with which those engines had been put together! When it comes to precise fabrication and engineering, the Germans are hands down the best! 💪🙌🙌🤟🤙
I live in Texas, but I am from Arizona and can't wait to move back out west so I can have places to ride this fantastic bike. I am 65 and have back issues, they say it is too big and heavy for me, but I find due to its design it does not fall all the way over, about 45 degrees and if done correctly I can put it back up just fine. I ride a 2012 R1200GS Rallye. I just love watching this video. Sometimes at 1/4 speed just to catch all the details.
I think there is more than motorcycle engines put together in this video. 6 in line? Whatever it is, it is very well organized, disciplined, quiet and clean environment to work in. Then a quality check talk to see if things could be done better. Real team work. Congratulations BMW!
I worked in a U. S. auto parts factory, where we made power seat systems. Every time something would go wrong with the line, the maintenance people would cobble something together to get the line running again. Any line operating for more than two years was unrecognizable from when it had been new, because of all the quick fixes. Eventually it became almost impossible to fix anything, because the specs of the machines no longer matched any parts on the machines. The plant went out of business in 2008.
I owned an 1967 R50/2 and 1968 R60/2 BWM. The connecting rods were assembled onto the crank at the factory with roller bearing on the lower end and brass wrist pin bushing on the top. The engine and transmission cases fit together so well one had to heat one and freeze the other to reassemble. They kick start and magneto ignition which meant if the carbon brushes on the 6V DC generator wore out you could still get home, which I did that way more than once. During a 1977 trip to Canada my R60/2 dropped a valve seat after a marathon 500 mile ride in Nova Scotia. A friend who worked on the old biked air freighted me a spare head which I was able to install with just the tools I had brought with me. Fast forward 25 years and it took an hour just to remove all the plastic fairing on my K1200LT to work on anything.
Glad to see BMW still employs human hands for manufacturing. Automation may be more efficient but I'd be proud to own that product (if I could afford LOL).
Seeing how boring the job must be and doing the same task over and over again most of the workers are all probably dead inside and don't want to talk 😅
The quiet surprised me too. No music either. I rarely put on music at work myself. It makes it more difficult to understand telephone and radio conversations.
As I remember the 44 c.i.d. engine in the Crosley auto had a overhead cam , which was driven by a vertical shaft and 2 sets of bevel gears... Same engine was later made into a 44 HP outboard with the crankshaft in the vertical position...

One thing that surprises me about modern engines is that the middle of the camshaft is not supported by a bushing or bearing, they just use the block casting alone.
É apaixonante .. quero trabalhar aí.. parece tudo dá certo de primeira não tem nada errado não tem stresses .... Muito obrigado pelo vídeo... A profundidade da minha ciência é pouca para julgar o vídeo a fundo... obrigado... Essa tecnologia tem no Brasil???? Abraço..
sometimes when i want to slap my coworker's face because he his talking again about his ex girlfriend, i'm dreaming about doing this kind of a job. Just working, alone with the machinery, concetrated.
Actually there are Honda Gold Wing, BMW 1600 GT/GTL/GTB, Horex 6 cylinder motorcycles. And The "cylinder King" is the American made BOSS HOSS with an Chevy V8 Small Block and one with an V8 big Block.
It's amazing, astonishing, . . . . . the advance of technology! Someone that was born 2, 3 hundred years ago (yesterday in history) wouldn't believe all this wasn't created by a supreme being.
Wait a second! This video is titled BMW MOTORCYCLE engine assembly. But at 9:57, it shows an inline 6 cylinder. Unless I'm out of touch, BMW does not make a 6 cylinder motorcycle. Seeing the entire engine at 13:19, it's clear that the engine is way too big for a motorcycle.
K1600GT K1600GTL and the new K1600B (i think "B") yes they produce them for a couple of years now and the engines are glorious. Too bad they don't build something a bit more reduced around them.
Honda used a 6 cylinder engine back in the late 70s into the early 80s as well. Called the CBX1000. For the time they were expensive to maintain but sounded great and very reliable. The K1600 is no different.
That`s amazing! for each step they have a special tool: rubber "thing" for camshaft chain fixation during assembly for example - 2:12 ...duct tape + any tool- that`s it...ain't go anywhere)

Such a quiet and articulate factory floor. Thanks for NOT putting in music and letting us listen to the assembly.

This job should be considered as an ART, watching these kind of video makes me relax

The Germans took 7 years to build the 1000 year Reich, the Allied troupes dismantled and destroyed in in about 14 months
You can tell a German , but not a whole lot!
I am surprised with the amount of hands on work done on them.

Their touring bikes like the K1600 have an inline 6
I need a silicone pastry brush for my workshop! Glad to see the expensive engines get a decent prelube unlike the twins!
You should see the production line at Triumph - they have sweat dripping off their noses from working so fast.
This like art performance for me, so peaceful and relaxing.
it's amazing how all that wear and torque can be a applied to a chain for years and 1,000's of miles of operation

I can both smell and taste the German quality of each piece of the engine! Really good to see that there still exists working pride!
That straight six must be one heck of a big motorcycle engine.

In big factories in Germany is this very normal, they say if you have music on it distracts you.
The quiet surprised me too. No music either. I rarely put on music at work myself. It makes it more difficult to understand telephone and radio conversations.
Pride of German engineering , metallurgy , engine performance and truly dedicated mechanics.
Trouble is here in UK there are so few dedicated mechanics !

+Richard Reichow
and these engines had integral head and block meaning that all engine must be disassembled if a valve problem occurs
I stand to be corrected but I think the NSU Max had a similar set up
do you leave your happyness at the door? or is the boss just a ....., come on look alive! you build BMW machines! wich brings happiness to thousands!!

I am not a HD fan. While indicators show Harley lags behind the Japanese in quality they produces a more reliable motorcycle than the BMW.

Are they use 6 cylinders engine in Motorcycle?

Some of these are the R12 boxer engines, later in the vid are the 6 cylinder k16 engines.
