Post a Photo of your K-bike

Holy CRAP! A SMOKIN' HOT chick on a K100! THAT ROCKS!

Thank you, not on a bike for a while though. 2 feet on the snow melted here, the streets cleared, and people are actually riding. I am not that brave, too much black ice in the shady spots.

Fantastic job. I know what was involved. A lot of hard work.

Excellent! Always nice to see a "new" Klassic K bike.

Long may your brick fly...

Can't believe it took 24 hours for that reply...

With the average age of the Duffers on here I can't believe they even noticed.

At least we are not afraid to post our age and dont think we didnt notice just kinda had to type with slobber all over the keys.

My "88 K100LT UGLY Brown is now taken apart for painting. I am prepping the "many" parts to be re-sprayed. That red you painted yours is very close to what I had in mind for mine. What paint color is that if you don't mind me asking?

Man, that's some beautiful work! Good on you! I think the 4-valve K100's are special because they are such a unique variation.

The paint code is "PRH" it's a Chrystler color. I believe it's called Inferno red, cryatal pearl metallic. Looks like plain red until the sunlight hits it then it has a brilliant metallic sheen. It's also colorfast.

Does repainting them affect the value at all?

I love it, I wish my old K looked that nice, it will probably get painted this summer. (I dropped it.....)

K100s are on the top heavy side. I know I ride a K100RT. A set of case savers, crash bars, can help keep the bike from sustaining a lot of damage in walking speed tipovers. Much easier to sand and paint black bars than painted rear view mirrors,fairing pieces, etc.. Also much easier to pick up bike laying on the case savers and not the bike itself. In a real crash, case savers are going to get destroyed, just talking about walking the bike speed tip over here.

Barry, when you refer to case savers, are you referring to the cases or are there some rear panniers' crash bars available like HD and GW have?

[barryg]

Engine case savers. Bars that go around the engine. I think BMW built rear safety bars for the police K bikes. Those were a little wider than the smaller police style saddlebags. I don't think BMW built wider safety bars that would protect the BMW regular size intragal bags.
