 Good to see the BMW/VW bike out at this years Bugtober Fest where it won best engine in show. Chirco Automotive, local shop for all thing VW, puts it on every year. This year the show featured a motorcycle that we put a lot of work into. Glad to see it out & about. Great show lots of different rides.
The bike is about 1:56 into this one. The bike goes by in far right lane about 3:10 into it. Add Comment  After many months of work that spanned over almost 2 years, it is finished! There was a lot that was strange on this project but it was to be expected when dealing with a car engine transplant in a motorcycle frame. It was a ton of work but the finished project turned out better than even we imagined.
 Finished up the oil blow by tube, kick stand & shift linkage. Should be finished soon. Keep checking back here for updates. Got the BMW/VW bike running. Check out the video below.  Got the battery in the box & on the bike. All wiring is now attached & runs down the back bone. So, not much shows at all. Got all switches & the spark plugs wires on. Should be able to start this thing soon. Keep checking back here for updates. 
 Spent some time polishing the valve covers today. You can see the difference even the first round of sanding makes  After a few more rounds of sanding & some time on the buffing wheels, this is what you get. Keep checking back here for updates on this project.
 Got the monster apes & brake line on this thing. We are making some progress on this project so keep checking back here for updates. 
 Got the exhaust & intakes all coated & on. Also, ran the lines for the oil cooler. Keep checking back here for updates. 
 The look of the sprung seat did not work since this bike has suspension. So, we changed it. We fabbed up a custom seat pan for the rider & occasional passenger. This project is coming along so keep checking back here for updates.
Got the exhaust pipes & intake tubes all wrapped up. Just need to coat them with high temp coating & they will be ready for install. Keep checking back here for updates on this project.
