Frans measuring the adapter rings.
Image
Me making the adapters on the lathe.
Image
The adapters to fit modern style BMW throttlebodies on a 1956 model heads BMW Boxer engine.
Image
See the difference left mounted , right stock BMW.
Image
This is the inside in flow direction.
At the end you can see the adapter.
Image
Changed the concept a bit and we placed R100 cilinders on it so the adapters are gone...
Image
Placed a Palm Vx to datalog on the bike.
Image
Mind the detail on the jiffy ;-)

 Image
Something is under the bike....

 Image
Happy Frans !

Work is done ! ( till now because he is talking about turbo's... )
The bike runs fine. Way more torque.Lot of horses in the throttle waiting to be released.
200 km/h is very quick on this 1956 frame but glad the brakes are from a Triupmh and the fork too.
We used R1150RT throttlebodies with the injectors of it. R100 cilinders. K&N filters. universal TPS. The head temperature is measured in the cilinder on the 2nd slot behind the head ( intake side bottom )

Also got a magazine MotorRevue where Frans his bike was in at the Streetfighter kick-off in Ijzendoorn The Netherlands.
The text says : Old fashioned BMW on fuelinjection !!!
