Hi everyone,

I'm living in Perth in Western Australia. Although I've been riding for about 35 years, I have just bought my first BMW - a 1989 K100RS SE. It's a complete change of pace for me after riding a cruiser with sidecar for many years. One week in and we are still getting to know each other, but every day brings a lot of joy. I'm looking forward to reading the wisdom of the crowd in this forum.

Cheers,

James

from the Northern Realm.
Regards Martin.

Welcome James from the dry part of the East.
If you can ride with RS handlebars after 35 years then my hat is off to you. Enjoy the cooler weather coming.

 It's certainly a different experience to my last bike which was a Kwaka VN800 with sidecar.

I feel your pain trust me, last time for me on an RS was 1989, so it's been a while for me too

Welcome aboard.
Since we accept Cockroaches (NSW), I cannot see why we can't have a Sandgroaper (WA) as well.
