Thank you Crazy frog for the intro. Much appreciated.
I stay in Pretoria South Africa and have been riding the K100RS since 1986. First the 8v model and now the 16v 1991 K100RS which I purchased in 1996. I have done many trips and km's in SA and Namibia and still love my K as I did the first day I got it. This bike is 100% and everything functional.
All maintenance and repairs I do myself. A few years ago I purchased, for spares, another 1991 K100RS which was in an accident. During COVID, I decided to restore it. I got it running very well but the cosmetics still needs to be done. A lot of used parts family brought back from Germany.
This year I managed to pick-up another one, in good condition but needing a lot of tlc. Like ABS, vibration, cracked hoses, hard o-rings, high fuel consumption...lights. I got onto the forum by searching for info on resetting and testing the ABS components. I got some info but am still stuck so I'll be busy with that coming 2024.
All in all I now have three 1991 K100 RS, one charcoal and 2 Pearl White.
Kind regards and blessings for 2024.
