I’m Konstantine Tumbinsky and this is installing spoked wheels on BMW K1100LT
OEM wheels are not appropriate quality and style
I’ll change OEM wheels on spoked tubeless wheels from R1100GS
Also I’ll install front and rear brake rotors
I choose german rotors by ABM
I made custom front axle for front wheel - see dimensions at stuntexclub.ru
For rear wheel you will need final drive's cover from R1100GS without ABS with brake caliper
I choose Michelin Comander II tires 10mm wider than stock
Front wheel is installed without problem
To change wheel remove calipers
First tighten axle bolt after left leg bolts and after right leg bolts
Stock brake calipers fit well to brake rotors from R1100GS
Make notch on right leg for rotor’s bolts so that the wheel could rotate
Rear wheel installing is more complicated
Stock caliper doesn’t fit spoked wheel
To install caliper from R1100GS you have to change final drive's cover
Drain oil before disassembling final drive
You will need allen 7mm and industrial dryer
Heat the cover before removing
Change stock cover to cover from R1100GS
But gears leave stock from K1100LT
To remove gears heat the cover
Cover from R1100GS perfectly fits to final drive from K1100LT
Now caliper from R1100GS can be installed
Distance between rear shock and caliper is small
But shock mount on final drive and frame allows to move it
Spoked wheels are much more stylish and make bike original
