BMW 1200GS in CH701
Posted on October 18, 2013 at 6:58am 0 Comments 1 Like
I am looking for either the drawings or complete engine mount (proven) for BMW 1200 GS installation into CH701. I have Engine complete with reduction drive and Kiev prop (very nice combination) which I am thinking of fitting to my 701. Can anyone help?

Test/Proving flights going well. Done just over 9 hours, flying beautifully!!! Just what I expected.
With the 95hp Xtra conversion, she cruise with the other 912S 701's.
