Gday  Robert from Oz.. 6 K model BMWs   7 if you count the K1200R  everydayer...Have been  riding bikes for 50 years ..Ever since I got on a Z50 when I was 8 and rode it into a Barbed Wire Fence , I knew this is what I wanted to do [that is Ride....Not end up in the Emergency Room waiting for the nurse with the scrubbing brush ]
.Bought a K100LT for cheap sometime last century and rode it until the Registration ran out...Didnt particularly like it   but it started, kept me warm and dry in the rain ,didnt seem to need anything other than petrol and a litre of oil  and is invisible to The Jacks  [The Hungry ,Hungry  Jacks ]...
Started to remember it fondly when the Ducatis needed work so kept my eye on the Classifieds [remember them ? ] and ended up with another ,then a Parts bike  ,then a better one ,then a K75  and then you realize the Ducatis are in the back of the Shed and you are staring at a sea of K100s wondering which one has the plate on it.
Looking forward to Social intercourse with like minded BrickHeads

Hi Robert welcome to our Knuthaus. Maybe you should have kept that Z50A they are worth more than a brick nowdays.

G'day Robert
                     Welcome to the forum mate, it's good to see the K's getting preference over the dukes in the shed.

Welcome to the forum too.

You suffer from Kpox, just as does Indian036.

Anyway you are in some really good company there and you definitely need some meet ups.

You will see Gaz80 on the forum too.....had dinner with Ruth and Gaz and Bjorn last night and about this time they should be performing a very important task for the forum- the kissing of the Blarney Stone..........

Thanks for the Nice Welcome
Will try to post some photos of the Collection.Might be hard the next 2 weeks First Grandbaby on way and riding is being frowned upon..
A question without Notice    Valentino Rossi ?  Messiah or Naughty Boy ?
Valencia is going to be a Cracking race but fear a Riot between the Italians and the Spanish

If you fuss around and be a nuisance Grandma and Mum will tell you to get lost and go for a ride or something and you'll be sweet.
