Hey mate, I enjoy watching you videos down under in Australia. I have just got a K100 RT back on the road which I was given as an unfinished project, it became a bare bike no plastic in a classic bike style. It had been sitting unused for over 6 years. The main issues with getting it running were related to fuel. The fuel had ethanol in it so the rubbers inthe tank were rotten. Also had to put the injectors into an ultrasonic bath cleaner, now I use the bike every weekend with my wife.
I've been looking forward to an '85 K100RS video.
If only the modern Beamers were as solid as these golden oldies!
Easier to fix, too :-)
Kinda random, but I love the music in Chris' shop.
My 1985 has close 200.000 km on just replaced the clutch and rear main seal. Also full service and suspension up date. Two new tires.
Great video --I have a k1 that I havent started in 20 years 56,000 miles ---this might just get me out into the garage.
Been waiting for a video of the K series. I take my hat of for the guys who turn this bike into a cafe racer ! A lot of electronic needs to be moved on this bike to accomplish a perfect looking cafe racer. Thanx for the great video !
Always liked the idea of the “RS,” a true sport tourer. Today I own a R1250RS, the latest iteration. Down on power but mountains of torque.
Great machine!
Lovely...
idle hands (or bikes) are the devil's playthings
The hall effect sensors tend to go bad on these as well, causing all sorts of running issues! That and ignition coils...
Indeed!
Can I work in you’re shop lol
Hi Chris, i installed the torque arm from the 1100rt to my 1100gs to lower it but the final drive angle changed as well and it looks a bit odd, can this damage the shaft or pinion or i can leave it like that?
Have you ever had the lights randomly come on while shut off
I had a short test drive on one just as it went on to reserve. Didint do 10. Miles and it stoped ..dry..
Is it a good idea to change the headlamp (the bulb 💡) of K bikes into a LED one?
the footpeg brackets werent sort of mounted they were rubber mounted and the pegs buzzed like a bastard.When I saw the 86 models were solid mounted I got a mate to ,ake aluminium copies of the rubber grommets and I bolted them up making the brackets solid ..instant difference
