Andre has published this year’s itinerary for the hill climbing event in South East France nr the Swiss border. Probably the only event of its type thst consistently has a diesel motorcycle or two racing up the hill!

A few shots of a magazine featuring Hubert’s bike at a show down near Switzerland.

Talking with Bernd about Neutral light issues on the BMW K 750/100 Series and he recommended this site that offer a box to fix this: https://www.elektronikbox.de/shop/

Bernd recommends this site for decent clutches able to take the extra torque delivered by a diesel. In my case it was for a K100 friction plate used on my Daihatsu build: http://www.erb-motorentechnik.de/

With the Big Knock on the horizon, we’ve been out & about locally, showing the various diesel bikes we run & engaging with anyone who shows an interest in the engineering that that rolled into the parking lot :shock: :D We’re finding that those who run classic motorcycles or who ride somethi...

Hoping to see Terry there

Just to let everyone know, that thanks to the efforts by Alex, the forum is now back up & running.

Large scale attacks by Bots crippled the signing up process & overwhelmed us.

It was our aim to save the valuable build information posted here so let’s hope we are not overwhelmed again.

Here’s a few shots from Warburg 2025

The Big Knock 2026 - 27th May - 3rd June at Care Ashore, Springbok Est,Dunsfold Rd, Alfold, GU6 8EX. As in 2025, you are welcome to arrive within these dates. The weekend will be the main time of the rally. We’ll likely be looking for contributions towards food & burgers this year. Not sure of t...

Just posted a video about the U.K. Franken Diesel motorcycle to the Dieselbike FB page but here it is here.https://youtu.be/cqnKjHOF6EQ?si=vtSeC0iXVoG1gdke

Here’s a link to my Daihatsu to K75 gearbox templates. One plate at least might be of use if a Daihatsu is being used??

A Royal Enfield was used in this electric motorbike build: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/mechanical-engin ... ny%20kind

Sold. Posting here first. Daihatsu Charade 1L engine. I have a spare engine for sale with (I’m told) 44k miles on it. It turns using the flywheel so isn’t seized. I ended up with 2 after putting the word out that I needed an engine for my own project :lol: It doesn’t have an exhaust manifold though,...

I guess you could get inspiration from the latest rally reports, some of which are video based now:

Seen at the U.K. rally last week: Long angle drive and short ist gear I can currently use Paralever for all K75, K100 and with the new longitudinal gearing also for the K1100 offer a spiral bevel gear set for the rear wheel - angle drive with a ratio of 1: 2.38. The overall translation is therefore ...

This device might be the saviour of the ICE?

Malcom Bendall’s Plasmoid Thunderstorm device apparently saves fuel & drastically cuts emissions.

Ok. Hope to see the bike back at a rally sometime

:D Just received this info from Fergus regarding the testing for his diesel Tiger. ‘ Totally standard lombardini LDW1003, tier 2 emissions engine. The exhaust is straight through stainless. I think the point is that since the engine only revs up to 3,800 rpm, the NOx levels don't change much from id...

If he’s breaking it then I’d be interested in the final drive provided it’s got the new ring & pinion gears in it from the German guy.
Needs to fit my BMW K75 build.
Message me if so?

Cheers
Stuart

I was told about the fate of this build in a German carpark. Such a shame
Are any parts salvageable?

Here’s a link to the Sommer Motorrad Treffen report by Maurice, that we attended this year

Here’s a link to the write up that Maurice kindly did of this years rally at The Blue Ship
https://mo900978854.wordpress.com/2023/ ... nock-2023/

Thanks for sharing, Mark We were looking to find a similar museum on our Euro tour this year but timings meant it never quite happened.

We are back at the Blue Ship this year. The field will be open from Thursday 1st June to the 4th. The pub doesn’t open earlier because of insurance requirements on the field.
See you in the field!

I have a DIESEL BIKE project for sale. Kubota Z482 with CVT from an Aixam or suchlike in a Kawasaki something or other frame. Reg’d as a diesel - Kawasaki/heavy oil on V5. I bought this two and a half years ago - it started, ran and rode well but needed a few bits to make roadworthy. At the time I h...

Here are pictures of the new gears I have had made for the angle drive and the shortened 1st gear. The new production of the angle drive can be used for the BMW K75, K100 and now also for the K1100 with Paralever. The translation has remained the same at 1:2.38. I can offer the angle drive gears for...
