Part 2 of our discussion with Chuck House where we discuss his work at Crescent City BMW when the K100 was introduced and how the classified ads in Cycle News changed his life trajectory in the m/c industry.
Over the next two episodes we’ll visit with Chuck House who has spent a lifetime in the motorcycle industry with most fascinating stories to tell, as witness. Chuck started as BMW Tech in 1981 at Crescent City BMW in New Orleans and later worked as a rally mechanic and national service manager for Ducati North America.
Our man Ande Kahora from Barrington Motor Works is here to talk about conversions and key difference between the /2 and /5 series.
Gage Wagoner joins us from Seattle to talk about his conversion, a 1966 /2 frame mated with a 74 R90S engine. Gage also rebuilds Koni shocks, which were a popular upgrade on the airheads back in the day. So we’ll dig into that AND his roadside repair story is one you’ll want to stay tuned for.
Willam Plam joins us for a discussion on unique features found on the 247 run. This is not an exhaustive list but one that includes some of our favorite bits that, helped the BMW Airhead stand out among its contemporaries back in the day. We’ll also get an update from Willam on the latest addition to his m/c garage.
