a lot of rust but worth restoring which is now cosmetically completed, the bike will never be mint, just working on getting it in a presentable and good mechanical condition, all the usual issues from any bike that has been out in the elements, water and crap in the tank, now cleaned out, i'm working on the fuel injectors and fuel lines, i've changed the oil and filter, no water in the oil, actually looked pretty clean, plugs are good and there is a spark on all 4, I bought the headlight, brackets, turn signals and mirrors (awaiting arrival) off ebay, I have a K1200RS which I acquired in Jan 2017, my first BMW, what an impressive bike. I've always liked German engineering, I've owned BMW (car), Audi, and several Mercedes over the years including a 300SEL 6.3 back in 1976 when I lived in Great Britain. I owned a motorcycle store back then mid 70s selling bikes and used spare parts, all british bikes, Royal Enfield to Ariel to Triumph etc. etc. etc. Working on this K100 is a great mechanical learning experience, my philosophy is this: if it was made by man it can be fixed by man....(with some help from Motobrick and youtube!!!!)
