Approximately 10,400 miles ago I had the 2:54 gear set

from a R1200CL installed in my K1100 housing. Work done by Anton

Largiader @ http://largiader.com/shop/. All seals and bearings except

the large crown bearing were replaced.

Not cheap to do - but not a job for the back yard mechanic either. Gear lash

and preload have to be set right the first time or you get to buy more

expensive BMW parts. Takes a little more clutch slip starting out - especially

two up - other wise the engine has plenty of torque for the new gears.

At 70 mph - 4000 rpm on tach - not sure how accurate speedo is. About

20-25 more miles on a tank of gas .??

Will include two good used final drive pivot bearings.

Also the rear wheel will now have 4 bolts (like the K1200RS/LT; Oilheads) instead of 5.

I'll send a pic if you want one - still looks the same as before.

$300.00 shipped to your door in USA only!

Fits K1, K100RS (1991-1992), K1100LT and K1100RS (1993 - on) Paralever rear suspension

I wish I had seen ths about 10K miles ago when I had to r&r the DS and transmission. I almost bought a Mustard yellow K1 FD. I have really just wanted an "overdrive" for this bike for the last 40K. It now has 105. ..and is not a garage queen..

Timing...

a bit more info on gearing;

the K1100RS had a 2:81 gear set

the K1100LT had a 2:75 gear set

the R1200CL had a 2:54 gear set (and is a homely looking m/c too!)

Right, it looks like US bikes didn't get the 2.81 but got the 2.75 instead, my statement only holds for european bikes.
I'll look more closely at what's on my bike.
