Well, the old girl is banished to the back of the garage for the winter so both cars can stay snow & frost free. At least it's not too hard to get out for those occasional January nice days to blow out some cobwebs. And that is a great looking blue K1, rcryan!

With the prospect of a foot of snow falling later today, I can at least look at photos of my '87 K75S. The photo is from the day I picked it up three years ago in the spring.

That's a fine looking K75S Harold, one might almost call it THE K75S..![]()

An 87 K75S with ABS & 3-spoke wheels? That would be some seriously expensive updating!![]()

A number of people have spent a fortune getting that '87 K75S into its present fine condition. My goal is to keep it nice. And yes, in a former life it was known as THE K75S (Hi Don!).
Harold was the perfect person to take over the care and feeding (polishing actually) of THE K75S. I finally found polishing those rims to be a chore, Harold looks forward to a spot of dust on them so he can happily disassemble the entire bike and polish them again. In order to get the spot of dust on them, he does ride the bike, which is also a good thing.![]()

RE: the bike in post 1008. Is the injector cover for insulation or looks? I like it.

Cosmetic, or to discourage tampering. Amazingly, SanJose BMW / CCproducts still lists it on their website...http://www.sjbmw.com/parts.asp#mid=25

This is my 1985 Hi Viz Machine. I rescued it from 4 years under a tarp in a backyard to what it's become.... THE HI VIZ MACHINE. Match that with the fact that I ride in a Hi Viz Helmet and Jacket, no one has yet to pull in front of me!
Beings that I put all of that time, energy, effort, and money into my Hi Viz Machine.... the bike deserved Vanity Tags!
Match the color with the 3M Solas tape... nobody will be creeping up on me!
i bet you ride solo a lot.![]()
