Hello all.
I've posted here long ago with help on this same bike. It was a friend's and has since been out of my hands and he let it go downhill. I've essentially inherited it off him and would like to begin restoring it. I would like to go through it and bring everything back to factory-level functionality. I'm unsure what model k100 it is. I do have the saddlebags for it, hopefully that denotes what submodel it is.
Here's the breakdown:
125,000 mi on the odo. Gears broken, no idea actual mileage...
Nearly no fairings
No blinkers. The ones on it were put on by my friend, wires never run.
Tail light doesn't work off the brake levers (previous owner put in some sort of bypass with a spring and piece of string)
It was turned into what it looks like now (no fairings) by the owner previously before my friend got it. I'm not too much of a fan of the cafe racer look.
Needs new tank
New Tires
It has an ignition bypass on the side of the bike that cranks the starter without the key in. won't start without key set to 'on'.
New seat. Badly. (will replace with at a minimum, a corbin)
..mirrors...
So I need advice, where do i begin? I already plan on the usuals, drain -all- fluids, replacing tires. From where, where would i go? Should i start on wiring real blinkers? Should i tear the whole thing down? Should I just get the splines out of the way first? The bike did work before it sat up for a few year, so i know the motor isn't seized. Is there somewhere I can find exploded views of...everything? lol.
