Yes, that would be another attempt at humor. Shamelessly borrowed from the late great Jim Varney. Some of his best work was on the old Fernwood Tonight Show. Unfortunately, his career was...
Smartest thing: Letting the salesman talk me into buying a new K100LT rather than the used R100 I was looking at (I still want the R though).
Dumbest: Well.....Let's just say that it involved...
I have a dog chained to a non-working diswasher on my front porch and a cabinet full of the best bourbon money can buy. I can't let go of the family heritage. Careful ears will hear the gentle...
Yeah,
All of those witness relocation people have to go somewhere. We even have a refugee here that makes one helluva calzone.
Finally, here is Tilly a next door rescue that decided she really wanted to live with us than take a lot of abuse from her former owners two Great Danes.
She sheds more than any animal I've ever...
Here is a rescue dog Cleo. Lovingly known as BEEyotch because she is old and really runs the house.
This is Thor the 4th in a line of Bouviers. We love the breed and will always have at least one.
I would drain and check the transmission and final drive for chunks of metal. I strongly second the inspection of rubber parts. I have an '88 K100 and have replaced a lot of rubber components...
I don't know your route but if you get off of the highway anywhere east of I-65 in KY and you should find some good roads. There are several small towns easily identifiable as they will have a...
I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the "engraved" lines on the R100RT headlight cover are for. This is mostly just idle curiosity but the insight would be interesting. Is it practical or...
Ditto, Ditto, Ditto, on the cleanliness. I had to change my lifestyle to accomodate the hobby. Try to make a few "quick" batches with malt extract syrup and then if the notion strikes you, move up...
Yes, we're loners.
There must be something that draws us to this type of bike. I am frequently asked to join in a group ride that my company organizes on holidays. They all gather on their...
There have also been times when its just too easy.
About 8-9 years ago I was working with a fellow with the last name of Krump.
Nice guy, we got along well. One day he asked if his brother, then...
One a recent business trip that was converted into a glorious tour my friend and I took a day and explored the Ohio river and then rode up into Ohio. Stopping at a small town we found a hotel.

If it's anything like mine, you have to slide to the rear and if you look, there is a molded stop in the case that is to prevent the case from coming up if it is in the forward position. You can...
If you are in the process of resurrecting this bike and it is your first BMW. I would strongly recommend the Haynes manual followed by the Clymer. They both have good schematics. From there,...
I have and "older" K100LT ('88) and I would like to know if anyone has found any after market speakers that will drop into the existing housing with little or no modifications.
Thanks

I had the same thing happen after 16 years of ownership. I was caught in a real downpour [socks and underwear saturated]. Anyway, after reading about the switch I took the bike on a long ride on a...
Wouldn't the shifting be difficult in all gears if the splines were at fault. I don't know this as fact but it does not make sense to me unless I hear a good explanation.
