good morning campers. i've had an R100 since 1984 (authority 1983), and pretty much ignored the K589 series because of ignorance and fear. two years ago i bought a 1985 K100RS in skanderborg (denmark) since the R bikes were 2X expensive there... and i've loved it. so much so that i got another 1985 K100RS for the home base (la honda, california), and a third one (1984 K100RS) in pool (england) which i now keep in london. having fixed datsuns, i know the L-Jetronic well, and am gradually getting all three bikes back to factory spec, other than one thing: i hate the mirrors, so i've gradually put K100 (short) mirrors on, and covered over the holes where the factory mirrors were attached. this means putting brush guards on the grips and rewiring the turn signals to that location -- it's a better look, and i find it harder to hit things while parking. i'll post pictures soonly. oh and there's a 1981 R100 (started its life as an RT but is naked now) in karlsruhe (germany). every one of the five is my favourite while i'm riding it!
