1983 BMW R100RS Remove Tank, Seat & Fairing

Due to the blizzard in Denver yesterday, I had time to finish up some documentation on the project so far and post it to my site. The focus has been on the fairing disassembly and a catalog of the fairing mounting hardware and where it goes. I found existing parts fiche aren’t very helpful about what fasteners go where.

Here is a link to two new publications.

I included a couple videos, one of which shows details of how all the fairing panels are connected.

Here is how the bike looks now.

And the stack of bins the parts are going in, which will increase as I get down to the frame.

    • Chris,

      Well, I can offer you a right top side panel to start with. It shouldn’t take too long to accumulate the parts you need 🙂

      Best.
