BMW K-Series description
This is a rare opportunity
to own a nearly perfect 1985 BMW K100 Naked. The 1985 K100 Naked is the most
desirable year and model. These motorcycles have a well deserved reputation for
long life and reliability. Some of these bikes have been known to log over
This K bike runs as good
as it looks and is ready to ride anywhere. This is a smooth comfortable machine that will
carry you across country or around town. You could spend $20,000 + on a new BMW
motorcycle that would be marginally better, if at all. This may be the best
example in the country.
I purchased this
motorcycle in May of 2011. I have put approximately
The odometer reads 66,304
and it broke shortly after I purchased the motorcycle. The electronic instruments
on this vintage K bike are about the only weak link. Many owners end up
re-building or re-placing. The speedometer, tachometer, fuel lights, shifting
indicator and clock all are in working condition. Only the odometer quit and
should reflect accurately within 3 -
The rear mono-shock was replaced in 2011.
The center stand was
replaced in 2011.
I had a qualified BMW
Mechanic in 2012 remove the transmission and inspect and lubricate the clutch
input and output splines. These bikes have a dry clutch and this maintenance
should be done every 25 to
This bike also features a
beautiful windshield that looks great on the bike. A second smaller windshield
also comes with the bike.
The BMW Panniers, (hard
bags) are in excellent condition and they are hard to find replacements and are
usually in tattered condition. There are also new liner bags for the panniers.
The pictures should tell the story regarding the condition of this classic motorcycle.
The motorcycle is available for your inspection, contact seller to make arrangements.
The bike to be picked up at my home by the successful bidder. I am willing to keep it in my garage for a reasonable period of time at no charge to allow a new owner time to make pick up arrangements. If shipping is desired, I will work with the buyer but all costs associated with shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer.

South West Motorcycle Show 2010, August 28th & 29th
Tue, 17 Aug 2010Need something to do on August Bank Holiday weekend, then read below: "Although the South West Motorcycle Show has been running at the Westpoint Arena for the last sixteen years, 2010 is the first year that the show hosts the all-new Vertical Trix European Stunt Championship. The show contains all the usual attractions that have been delivered to motorcyclists from over the south-west and further afield since 1994 – including all the appropriate trade stands, and with strong support from local dealers – plus attractions such a a dyno on site, restaurant, bar, bike displays, live music and of course the live action arena. Although the action in the show arena has previously been stunt displays, rather than a full-on competition.
My S1000RR has stopped but it's only a broken chain.
Thu, 15 Sep 2011I know there has been a lack of blogging on my S1000RR recently and that’s because it’s broken, but only a little bit. On July 18th I was at Silverstone looking after some Bahnstormer BMW customers, when late in the afternoon something hit me on the back as I was charging down the Wellington Straight. At that precise moment I also thought I had hit a false neutral but it turns out the chain had snapped.
