Been looking forward to adding this here...I just acquired a R100RS from 1984. Great bike to ride - donīt know if it is just me but it seems much lighter to handle than the K?

If it seems that way, it is that way. Revel in it! It looks pretty good from here.

Hi:
Those are my three bikes. Totally different one from the other, all old, like me!

Yes, the boxer feels lighter, but the K75S is just a great overall package !

Riding season coming to a close in the North.
