Hello from Ecuador
« on: October 17, 2018, 11:34:02 PM »
Hello everybody.
I am knew to this forum and also new owning a k1100rs after owning 2 oilheads.
The bike was stored 17 years so it’s a mess at the fuel and brake department.
Apart from that it is in impecable condition.
This group has been invaluable. 
Thank you and I will be posting soon

Welcome!  That's a really nice RS.  I'll bet the cafe guys are wishing it was theirs to cut the rear loop off.

Really nice bike!

I agree, why is it all brick cafe projects...  look the same.  Sigh.   :falldown:

Glad your 1100 still looks like an 1100!!

Welcome  :bmwsmile , that is a very nice motorcycle.  Good luck with restoration.  My motorcycle was a very similar situation...

Because all the café racers are café racers and all the scramblers are scramblers. And all the bikes that they started off as were the same !. The best thing about mine is that it don't look the same  as yours  :neener: 

On the other hand I don't think I would have altered an 1100RS. Just too sexy.
