Hi
So I'm a newbie... Looking to buy an 85 K100RT and need to get as much info as possible to help make a good decision!!!
Thanks and I look forward to contributing to the forum and hopefully benefitting from your collective wisdom, experience and generosity!

Welcome Stephen.
It's always nice to see another Canuck registering here. years ago, I had ties with the BMW club of Quebec. I organized few camping trips between the BMW riders of Nova Scotia and the BMW Quebec club. It was always fun to mix the Francophone and Anglophone community together. After a couple of beers, we all spoke Franglish and the party started.

Cheers,
Bert

Again, thanks for the welcomes!!! I really look forward to the day I can get a bike on the twisties north of where I live! (South, East, and West are just flat and straight...)

Was trying to upload an image to the forum... I used the "host Image" button and went through the prompted steps... the image I wanted to use was visible in the post preview, but then when I hit the "send button" it disappeared...

I did a little searching around the site and tried a couple of other methods, but nothing worked...

Help!!!

Thanks 

Stephen

Welcome, Steven!  Hope you are enjoying the search for a brick.  The first is always the hardest.  Then the Kpox will kick in and before you know it you are looking at the wife's car and wondering if moving it out of the garage will make room for 2 or maybe 3 more bricks.

IMO The photo posting procedures are there to prevent anyone over the age of 13 who is not an IT professional from cluttering the forum with photos. I've been here for a couple years now and sometimes I can post a photo, but mostly just give up in frustration.

There is an option on the forum to ban users with less than one week registration to post a picture or an external  link. This option is good to defeat the action of new spammers.
However, the way that the forum is setup should authorize new members to post a picture.
Here is the setting:
Unauthorize members with less than a week registration to post external links and emails : This option is set to NO. (According to my "poor" English comprehension, this setup should give the right to newly registered users to post pictures).

Maybe the setup doesn't work and you may have to wait to be registered for a week.

Welcome aboard, msg us when you are ready to ride - some great roads around here. Google route 347... 

Hi and welcome Steven,

BIG D

Welcome from one end of the country to the other! Have you bought a brick yet, or just looking? I could not be happier with the 1985 RT I found a month ago-- what a road chomper it is!
