Agreed Christopher, I am doing a custom job on an LT but it wasn't the most loved BMW ever to grace the street. There is a saying here in the civilised part of the world. "You can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear".
Well that's utter bollox as many of the project's in these pages proove. The K100 is a great starting point for a custom project and one of the best value for money machines out there. On the other hand One of my neighbours has a K1100 in mint condition and it would be a crime to chop it up. There's definitely room for both in my eyes.
Queer is here but Straight is great. :clap:
I will say however that this whole thread seems to have evolved from frustration and bruised ego's. I tried to make light of it, but I would suggest that anyone who has contributed looks back and read what they have written. Were you entirely fair?. Could you maybe be guilty of a little inverted snobbery?.
I say enjoy your bikes, enjoy this goldmine of information, and most of all Don't take it, or yourself so seriously. If you don't want to play get out of the playground.
Skunky the cappuccino fetched :clap:
