Nice work. Utter madness but nice work
My thoughts exactly. Thanks!
I'd love to do this, if only I were clever enough. Great work.
Hi again Tom!
It doesn't really require cleverness. Just some lateral thinking, a bit of understanding of how the bike works, and a bit of knowledge of basic engineering principles.
Alongside the conversion itself, I'm also producing a document that will explain to anyone interested how to perform this conversion, step by step. Reading it, you'll see that by making the overall motorcycle configurations as similar as they did, BMW actually did the same thing as Hansel and Gretel's dad, leaving a trail of breadcrumbs to follow.
You also like to tinker... if you've got a mind to create something great of your own, I say go for it!
By the way, I saw an F800R for the first time while I was out on a run yesterday (sadly, heading in the opposite direction). A Chris Pfeiffer edition with a German licence plate.
