Hey peeps! I figured before i went insane doing research all over the internets, that id ask my DTT brothers some questions.
I recently fell in love with the aforementiomed bike, and am thinking of building a replica for racing.
It looks to me like its a /5 style frame, with an old motor and really small seat.
Does anyone know if bmw made a 500cc /5? I would love to be able to run the bike in 500gp, even though i know i wont be competitive no matter where the bike ends up lol.
If not, would an older motor fit in a /5 type frame? I have mild fab skills ( cant build a frame, but dont mind cutting and modifying).
I would probably run conventional forks instead of the odd forks they ran back then.
Ive found a few /5 frames for 50 bux, thats why im curious if this is at all possible. O yea, heres a foto.
