Hello to all from a former owner.
I rode my first ever K100 when BMW first launched them in the UK. At the time I owned an R100RS and loved it. While I was unimpressed with the naked K100 I though the K100RS was superb and was determined to get one. Since then I've owned:
2 x K100RS
1 x L100LT
1 x K100RS 16v
1 x K1
From the K family, I've also owned:
1 x K1200S
2 x K1300S
While I've owned other non-BMWs I do find I keep coming back to the concept that the original K100 gave us of a sports motorcycle that will take hard luggage and a pillion, offering decent performance and fun coupled with comfort and reasonable economy.
I currently ride a R100CS (nostalgia ) and a Kawasaki H2 SX SE.
I'm sort of thinking about the possibility of getting another K100RS as another nostalgia trip but I'm not yet sure that's what I'll do.
