So I have taken my K100RS completely down and apart. My goal was to stop the smoking that happens after it’s warmed up and I rest it on I stand for a quick drink. After doing a little research on here I’m getting the idea that it may not be worth cracking the engine open to redo all the gaskets (planned on buying a whole gasket set).
She was running fine before but did do a serious smoke start. I ride mostly with a bunch of Harley guys (I have one too, but way more prefer the K!) and they have their issues but I stand out so bad and try to always leave last in the group now because I’m just being considerate.
So yeah is it worth it to replace seals and gaskets to help stop the smoking or will it even matter/make much difference after about 5K?? miles??
