New 1984 K100RT in Illinois
« on: April 14, 2018, 03:50:40 PM »

Greetings all. New member here.

I'm working on a 1984 (Per vin lookup. Actually titled 1985) BMW K100RT in Lindenhurst, Illinois.
The project has been underway for almost two months and I'm making some slow progress toward riding it.

These forums have been an absolutely fantastic resource for keeping my brick project moving. I sure do appreciate all the knowledge shared.




Here are photos from the original online sales listing.

Welcome. Nice bike.


What are those dark patches on the ground around your bike? We don't have those here.

I wept because I had no radials until I met a man who had no splines.
