BMW MONOLEVER FINAL DRIVE (thru axle - ribbed case - 10/32 or 11/34)

[HOOK74]

Hi everyone, nice to meet you.


I am not very experienced with BMW airhead 2V and I signed up for useful information. I apologize for not speaking German and for my rusty English.


I would like to know if there are monolever Bmw motorcycles equipped with 10/32 or 11/34 FINAL DRIVE WITH THRU AXLE AND RIBBED CASE (like in photo B).



I don't think so. I think they exist only with smooth case (like in photo A)



If I'm wrong may U tell me the model and year of the BMW motorcycle ?


THANK U

It's just the other way. The "smooth" housing was used with the /5 to /7 series (dual arm lever). The Monolever series always came with the ribbed housing.

Regarding the available gear ratios: You will find plenty of information in the "rear drive chapter" of our BMW data base. The most should be understandable even to a non-german-speaking reader.

These might be most interesting:

Teil 7 Hinterradantrieb Monolever-Modelle Baureihe 247e Baujahr 1981-1992

Teil 8 Hinterradantrieb Monolever-Modelle Baureihe 247 85 Baujahr 1985-1995

Give it a try!

Kind regards

Stefan

Hello,

the translations are available. 32/10 and 34/11 more than rare, 37/11 with the R80

Thank U to all for these infos.

To Walter,

Do U mean I should have used the translator rather than my rusty English?
Meinst du, ich hätte eher den Übersetzer als mein rostiges Englisch benutzen sollen?

if it works I'll do..

it works?

I'm not Walter, but

- the translator worked, but from my point of view you'd better stick to English since all these automatic translators create crappy wordings every once in a while.

- the correct term in Walter's post would have been "transmission ratio".

BTW: For automatic translation I would give deepl a try. Works quite well!

Hi HOOK74,

a final drive with thru axle is only for use with twinshock swingarms!

A monolever bike doesn't need a final drive with thru axle, because the wheel is attached with 4 screws to the final drive.

Your picture B maybe shows a final drive for twinshock BMWs from 1981-1985 like here:
https://forum.2-ventiler.de/vbboard/...jahr-1981-1985
and here:
https://forum.2-ventiler.de/vbboard/...jahr-1981-1985

By the way: where are you located and is Hook your real name??

Greetings

I must admit having completely missed the point "thru axle" in connection with "monolever".

Werner is right, of course.

Hallo an alle Jungs und vielen Dank für all Ihre Informationen.


Asi sagte, ich sei kein Experte für BMW.
In aller Bescheidenheit versuche ich, etwas zu verstehen.
Ich entschuldige mich, aber wahrscheinlich hat meine Unwissenheit Verwirrung gestiftet.


Ich bezeichne fälschlicherweise alle Endübertragungen (mit Durchgangsachse und nicht), die nicht für die Paralelle sind, als Monoläufer.


Ich habe eine r100gs Paralever, aber ich modifiziere das Fahrgestell und wechsle den Endantrieb und die Schwinge.


Ich weiß immer noch nicht, ob meine neue Schwinge ein- oder zweiarmig sein wird.


Es hängt davon ab, was ich als Endgetriebe finde, das kein Paralever-Getriebe sein wird.


Beim Einbau eines 1070-ccm-Kits riet mir mein Mechaniker, ein 10/32- oder 11/34-Endgetriebe zu verwenden (auch 11-33, aber mit dem Risiko, dass es zu lang ist).


Ich hätte gerne eine Zweiarmschwinge.


Ich fand ein Endgetriebe mit Durchgangsachse und Rippengehäuse mit 11-33 Übersetzung, aber ich wollte wissen, ob es dasselbe auch mit 11-34 oder 10-32 Übersetzung bei einigen Bmw-Modellen gibt.


scheint nicht .... also werde ich wahrscheinlich eine Einarmschwinge mit Endantrieb ohne durchgehende Achse bauen.




Hello to everyone guys and thank you for all your information.


Asi said I am not an expert on BMW.
With total humility I try to understand something.
I apologize but probably my ignorance has made confusion.


I mistakenly call monolever all final transmissions (with through-axle and not) that are not for paralever.


I have a r100gs paralever but I am modifying chassis and changing final drive and swingarm.


I still don't know if my new swingarm will be single or double arm.


It depends on what I find as a final transmission that won't be a paralever transmission.


Mounting a 1070cc kit my mechanic advised me to use a 10/32 or 11/34 final transmission (also 11-33 but with the risk that it's too long).


I'd like to have a two arm swingarm.


I found a final transmission with through axle and ribbed case with 11-33 ratio but i wanted to know if the same one exists also with 11-34 or 10-32 ratio on some Bmw models.


seems not ....so probably I'll build a single arm swingarm with a final drive without through axle.
