Hello everyone,

I am Dan from Chicago. I have an opportunity to get a 1987 K100LT with 16K miles.  The current owner is the original owner but due to his age (83 years young) can't ride anymore.  The  bike has been parked in a heated garage and has not been started in at least 7 years.

The "price" is right and I am lookin forward to bringing it home and starting the reanimation.
Forgive me if I ask questions that have been asked numerous times.   

I am 49 years old, been riding actively for 41 years, in my past I have owned many bikes including R100Rs (the only bike I regret selling).

I am a former club racer, I raced mostly in the MidWest with CCS. In the past I raced Aprilia, Ducati, Triumph and Kawasaki, Time was right to retire from racing and start enjoying other types of riding. I may do few track days but no more racing.

Currently I have few bikes:
2018HD Heritage Classic
2016 ZX6RR
2007 Suzuki Burgeman 400
1967 Benneli 250 cafe
Few dirt bikes and scooters
