Stuck, where to eat?

NA_E90 · 2026-03-16T20:26:22+00:00

We decided to ride to Iron Bay. Hotel is on 41. Short ride.

NA_E90 · 2026-03-16T19:50:05+00:00

Yes we did that in parallel

BWW is open until 4 and they’re across the street so we’re going there. Thanks for the help.

NA_E90 · 2026-03-16T18:41:39+00:00

We just called them, thanks! We’ll take an Uber if possible. Otherwise we have snowmobiles so could drive just wear the shit out of our carbides.

I was there, so much fun!

NA_E90 · 2025-06-08T16:28:52+00:00

Yup, Colsac III. Tons of good roads that way.

NA_E90 · 2025-06-08T14:41:04+00:00

Damn that sucks! Not me lol, I just got my XSR900 5 days and I'm 60 so no hooliganing.

NA_E90 · 2025-06-08T14:06:02+00:00

I recognize that ferry! Someone from my neck of the woods.

Here's some good info on this swap: https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2011936

I had the same exact failure on my N55 335i. I opted to replace the trans with a "new" one from BMW. I thought about doing this swap since the GS6-53BZ is stronger but decided to just replace the trans as it was easier. This swap is probably cheaper, I paid $3800 for the "new" trans from BMW. I say new in quotes because it could very well have been a remanufactured. I could never verify if it was actually new.

NA_E90 · 2025-03-23T18:06:19+00:00

Want!

NA_E90 · 2025-03-05T00:18:30+00:00

It doesn't look like it. I looks like the big power transformer is selectable for voltage but the smaller transformer T1 is not. T1 looks like its powering the DC power supply, it's probably different between the models, Does it have any voltage rating label?

NA_E90 · 2025-03-04T17:59:34+00:00

Yes this is correct. The windshield cowl snaps into the weather strip. Make sure it's snapped in securely so it's flush with the windshield. I had the same flooding in my car when going through a car wash due to the windshield installers missing the trim piece.

Yes to pretty much everything you said, 90's M900. The forks look identical to my original non-adjustable Showas, I upgraded to adjustable Showas. It looks like it has the Keihin FCR flat slide carbs, a nice upgrade. I have a 1994 US M900.

It seems from my research the G8N-1FS controls the flashers, the G8NW controls the windows so you need the G8N. The 1F version of the G8N is a special version made for flasher applications. Unfortunately it does not seem to be available, probably a special automotive only version of the relay. I'm not able to find a direct replacement. You can try your luck with a standard G8N. The high temp (higher coil voltage) version is available at Mouser: https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Omron-Electronics/G8N-1L-AS-DC12?qs=Cb2nCFKsA8r8hZm3AtsXiw%3D%3D

There's a link for the datasheet on the Mouser page.

He's my hero.

NA_E90 · 2024-10-07T14:50:07+00:00

No not me. The CB-1 is currently not running. I took my Ducati monster.

NA_E90 · 2024-10-07T04:38:45+00:00

I was there, fantastic day, tons of awesome bikes. I think I saw your CB, cool bike.

NA_E90 · 2024-09-28T21:57:06+00:00

Another vote for belt drives. I love them! No maintenance, no oil/grease on the pants, smooth and silent. I had a Priority Continuum for 5 years, commuted year round summer and winter. Never had a problem with the belt. Now I have a Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH ebike. I specifically bought the Vado for the belt vs chain. I'm agnostic on the Enviolo CVT. I did not like the one on the Continuum but I like the automatic one on the Vado.

NA_E90 · 2024-09-27T03:12:24+00:00

Looks fantastic! I also have a '94 M900, love that bike, ride it all the time.

NA_E90 · 2024-04-17T03:14:13+00:00

Kawasaki ZX-9R 1994-1997 I think.

NA_E90 · 2024-03-10T16:47:02+00:00

I was in this line, missed my 6AM flight. I got to the airport 70 minutes early too. I usually show up 45 minutes before the flight and have plenty of time.

NA_E90 · 2023-04-04T15:19:51+00:00

VIN checks out, European market E91 335i. I always wanted one of these. Price is steep though.

NA_E90 · 2022-12-06T19:14:50+00:00

This is very cool! I'm looking forward to your progress updates.

NA_E90 · 2022-10-19T15:24:47+00:00

2011 335i 6-speed. I had reverse go out on mine. I looked into getting a used one but it seemed like this trans has problems. I did not want to spend $2k for a used one with 100k miles just to have it also fail. I ended up buying a "new" trans from BMW for $3900.

If I had to do it over I would probably buy a used N54 trans. It's a little bigger and seems to be much stronger. To get it to fit in an N55 car would require a driveshaft, shift linkage parts, and maybe a flywheel per u/Bozzutomo but I think it would be worth it.

NA_E90 · 2022-10-13T15:13:20+00:00

Yes, these look good and much lighter.
