Hi folks,

My name is Jamie and I just bought a 1986 k75S, at the moment is a non runner but I hopefully will get that spark back somehow.

Looking forward to share information and experiences with all you.

Welkom Jamie, 

A very good choice of motorcycle. 

I sure the local eccentics will drop by soon to say hello.

Hi Jamie welKome to our Knuthaus. Being in Ireland you will have a healthy social life with the eccentrics and lots of help from all over the globe.

Another welcome to our corner of the Interweb from down under.
T' be sure, those Irish will be along shortly.
 

Thank you guys, I can't wait to put this beauty back on the road.
Yeah, I believe there are a few colleagues around me, I'll have to start making contact and use a bit of their expertise.
Cheers

Welcome to the forum, glad you found us. Seems the guys down under got to your first but that's ok. We had one of their number over here last week, came specially so we could have lunch at Blarney for my birthday.

Quite a few Ks up your way and some very close to you. We are due at Magda's [JediGirl] some time again too, depends on when we have her water pump back together as it's still awaiting a few parts. When it's together there will be another meet up at her place and might be worth coming along to see a K in a good state of undress. Will gave it the sprag clutch treatment that last day and it will get another on the next visit.

I think Naas to Monasterevin is a short enough walk for you, something to consider as her husband is a chef and I rarely leave a place unable to eat any more and this was one of those occasions....I think getting her K sorted could be a long drawn out affair.....

A good idea put up a thread for your K with some photos and questions and everyone will pile in some answers and so on. One of Magda's housemates has a K75.......or two.

Sorry for the late reply, I went away on holidays.

I'd be delighted if I could attend the next time you guys are in monasterevin and meet everyone. 

I have done a bit of progress on troubleshooting the bike, I'll take your advice and start a thread describe what I've done so far and look for new ideas.

Hi Jaimers,

Got your PM and left you my number as well. Sent you an invite over to Nore Valley Park for a bbq next weekend. Feel free to pop over even if its on 4 wheels rather than 2, a good chance to meet up face to face K talk. 88 [Will] is likely to be down and he has a mine of information on Ks and on K75s.

Maybe talk over the weekend when I get away from the desk. Couldn't get away.
