I know exactly how you feel. After a year or two of soul-searching and a military style decision brief I decided to sell my 85 K100RS. I was the 2nd owner, mine since 1988 it had just 400 miles on it! I rode it hard, several cross countries, a 4-corners ride and many trips up and down the east coast. It had nearly 300,000 miles on it when I let it go, never let me down. Aside from wear and tear items I never experienced a major component failure. I sold it plus a trailer full of parts that one seems to collect "just in case" to a young lad who is, as we speak, converting it to a cafe racer. Perhaps it sits in the barn where I delivered it.
Age, riding position, bad knees, etc, etc, kept me off the RS and my LT became ride of choice.
Bicycles have become my new obsession as well! Mt biking in particular which has led to more injuries than I ever received from riding the RS!
go figure.
Make the tough decision, let 'er go.
