In this video I'm assembling a 1:2 scale BMW R90S engine model from FRANZIS. The BMW R/90-S is a 898cc sport motorcycle produced by BMW from 1973 to 1976.

This see-through engine model kit has over 200 parts and no glue is required for assembly. A special highlight of this model kit is its true-to-detail working five-speed gearbox and perfectly timed spark lights. The quality and fitment of this engine kit is top notch, as you would expect from a German manufacturer.

  • GERMAN ENGINEERING AT IT FINEST, These R90 engines are very smooth operating pieces and make much torque.
  • @shujin12345678
    The fact that this model has a working transmission is awesome ... Kind of makes it worth the price of admission ....
  • @jameskatz5956
    Almost inspires me to restore my 76 R90S. Only thing the model is missing is the clutch.
  • @tierfreund5195
    super aufwendiges Video und das schönste, es ist ohne einen selbsternannten "Moderator der durch die Sendung führt und alles totlabert "
  • @ilovetomake5157
    The model is exquisite, and even better, he can move like he really does
  • Not once did I see a torque wrench being used! Seriously though, great vid, and a nice model 👍
  • @edwinjames6283
    Love this....especially since I put over 100,000 miles on an R90S I owned back in the eighties!

  • @nor0845
    Very impressive 👍🏻 Thanks for posting.
  • @allwinds3786
    Being extremely familiar with the boxer having had one since '79 and worked on it extensively they could have changed a few things to make it more realistic without making it much more expensive.

    I had a 1974 BMW R75/6, I believe the internal components of them were the same except for displacement. In the video it appeared the cam was driven by a belt, but on mine the cam was driven by a chain.
  • Amazing design. I've had 3 BMWs and never thought where all the bits were....the starter motor for one. I always wondered what was inside those strange looking cases 🤔

    First, I've always absolutely Loved the Boxers. I have two retired Police Beemers and one is giving me bloody fits because the fairing and gas tank is tightly wrapped around the very same battery I need to remove, and can't figure out which other screws need to be pulled. Oh well... Second, while the ancient saying, "Chrome don't getcha home " holds true, you do look great standing there in Winslow, Arizona, awaiting for the lovely young Lady in the flatbed Ford...
  • @naushad911
    I'd buy one if it actually ran! That'd be super cool!
  • @G58
    Awesome. Thank you for sharing
  • @mark.e.p
