Well, what can I say, I am excited beyond words... Next weekend I will be picking up a new to me 1992 R 100R. The bike is in great condition and I feel it a lucky find. It already has the brake upgrade to double disc's in the front, it has no emissions, as it is a UK model. Therefore, it also comes with 40mm carbs. It also comes with a full fairing that is UK fiberglass made (name escapes me), but it is not on the bike.

Does anybody else know of any differences between UK models and US models?

I am taking suggestions for a custom plate (SC has 6 letters/numbers). What do you think of: R247UK

Let me hear from you....

If it is 40mm with the US cams - that could be very interesting
