Here is a shot of my 'ol RS.
I start up my bikes every now and then in the winter, yes I know the arguments against it....but, I cannot stand the thought of those pistons just sitting there! Too much snow to ride however.
My loveR...

Nice bike! Is that a R100S sans "S" fairing?
Thank you. Yes, I call it an 'S' that's been 'RT'd.Nice bike! Is that a R100S sans "S" fairing?
A little research found that the fairing replacement and new, set back bars were a dealer installed option.
Very comfortable ride, with the 'S' performance.

Nope, runs like a dream. I took a long lunch so I could take a ride. The weather here in Florida has turned cold, mid 40's (sorry if you're sitting up north waiting for the drifts to melt) so I keep the ride short. I'm going to the BMWNEF Winter Rally next month near Jacksonville, FL, and now have to pick between the Airhead or the Oilhead. Oh, how will I every decide

I saw that trailer, for a BMW usually a bad sign.and now have to pick between the Airhead or the Oilhead. Oh, how will I every decide
Actually I alternate on a weekly basis between my airhead and K bike (weather permitting of course).
Either one would be absolutely dependable on a trip but K bike offers best protection.
Each is unique and so much fun. You're going to love the choices.

....and scenery! At least in a lot of the pics the background is amazing! Check out the first page of this thread and the R90S. Wow! This shot of my ol' RS is mundane....but, I have others that are far more interesting. Cannot post right now. Of course, I like the bike pics just for themselves also. All the bikes, be they pristine, rough, or somewhere in between. Not long ago, I saw an old faded R90S that was parked at a cafe, the paint was well faded and the bike had a patina of age, still ,looked well kept and ready to rumble! It had an out of state tag so apparently it was a well traveled bike. I loved it. Wish I could have spoken with the owner..... Here's another shot of my old '78.
Here is my R100S
