September trip
 
You know your way around the tool room and you know your way around the continent. My hat is off to you!
 
I am absolutely dripping with envy! I have done little bits of that tour by bicycle last time 7 years ago. I don't think I could do it again. Maybe next time by motorcycle.
 
Impressive and nice pix. Are those your winter tires? What type/size. Front looks tall. Interested to hear what gearbox sprocket you use for such a long trip. Looks like the stock rear drum but do i see a rear master cyl or is that a chain oiler?? I find the 19T to be great on big mountain roads.

Belt or chain primary drive?

Front is Heidenau K34 with a more pronounced profile, because I also do unpaved roads.
Rear: BT 46

Std drum, but full floating hydraulic operated. Brake shoes are from an Austin Mini.

Is that an NHK steering damper? I have one of those on the shelf and never thought about putting on the N15. Hmm, playing 20 Q's here. Anyway nice pics, so cool.
 
OK gotta ask
What's the round bar stock running across the frame below the headstock? Is it your chopper footrests, or fairing protectors for your invisible fairing, or?
 
I see your belt drive fits without spacing out the primary cover- who’s kit is that? My G-15 wants to know!
