    Brooke's videos are priceless. Couldn't have rebuilt my 83 R100 without him. And Rubber Chicken Racing.

      Agree, I spent countless hours watching Brooke's great vids 👌

      @@LBBKPHILLY I'm running the OEM headers that I just stripped and cerakoted in armor black with a couple of cheap Ali express hotdogs! I repacked the hotdogs with some sound matting and its perfect and also passed our roadworthy DB test. You can see the details on my insta if your on there. Shoot me a message if you want me to dig up the link to them, from memory they set me back about $100 for the two landed in Aus

      Massive moment Dave, I've ordered a small 5ltr fuel cell so I can run her longer than the 15 seconds I get from the carby bowls which should give me time to do the timing and idle etc. Thanks buddy 😉

    • @twistedfatebuilds
      @twistedfatebuilds  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks buddy, I painted them in Cerakote titanium just to break up the all black and make them stand out a bit more as I think they are a great looking carby 😉

    Very nice! I am just starting on my own odyssey to build something like what you have done based on a 1981 R100RT. I would be very interested to know what you used for the handlebars and associated throttle and control hardware. I tried a set of straighter bars but they are too short to fit all the necessary bits, and I want to mock it all up before full disassembly for power coating etc.

    • @twistedfatebuilds
      @twistedfatebuilds  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Gary, thanks for the message and congrats on the start of your build 🤘 I used clip on bars here paired with some rebel moto switches. I started with a Domino throttle but didn't like the hump size where the spindle was as it made it difficult to get to the rebel buttons. I swapped out to a messnermoto throttle which was more exy but low profile.
      Your best bet is to jump on Instagram to see the two builds documented pretty in depth where you can hit me up with any other questions along your journey buddy.

      Hey mate, these are cheap hotdogs I got from Ali express. I broke them down and re packed them with better matting and trimmed the silencer then coated them in some Cerakote C series armor black. I have a small post on it at my insta

    • @twistedfatebuilds
      @twistedfatebuilds  ปีที่แล้ว

      Not too sure mate apart from contacting all the BMW motorcycle mechanics. Motorworks UK have a lot of 2nd hand parts and are reasonably priced but it depends on the size and weight as shipping may be a killer

    Did you need a converter to fit the shorty exhaust? I find that mine are wider diameter than the stock headers.

    • @twistedfatebuilds
      @twistedfatebuilds  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I didn't buddy, these mufflers fit two different sized headers depending on which way you turn them and I made sure one was the correct size before ordering. I did cut some slots down the line so the clamp could pull it up tighter though.
