K75 1986 63000km.

Bought this original bike.
Has some issues, gear indicator crapped, speedo won't work (trip does), clock is dead, forkseal blown, outputshaft seal is pissing.
Will give it a full service also, got a job today


It came with the original barns for the wallet and creditcards.



I decided to make a caferacer out of it;



Not really satisfied, too less room for my handbag, made a street tracker;

Not much wrong with it then, really. Two days at the most to get it back in good shape.

Nice conversion, I like how you've kept some of the look of the original bike.

Awesome.  K100 headlight surround looks good.

Nice bike, nice find, nice buy 

Rode it like I stole it yesterday

Now it's time to place new forkseals, outputshaftseal, speedo at the dash doesn't work (trip does...), no gear indicator (display black), and a full service.

I'm still wounded by post #1. With just a couple of lines Arlina has taken the legs of every special builder out there. 
Is that a Dutch thing?

+1  Probably one of the most comfortable cafe bikes ever built.  I could ride that one all day.

Too funny, that first post. I had one of those well more than a decade ago with the rear drum brake for a long, enjoyable Summer of riding throughout the Pacific Northwet, camping, exploring gravel tracks up into the mountains where I'd camp and explore more. It was very smooth, light feeling, easy to manouevre, got incredible mileage, and people asked me about it (especially up on narrow goat tracks above 6,000' of altitude where usually only single track, quads and hardcore Jeep drivers dared go) and didn't use a drop of oil. I would own one again in a heartbeat.
