I've been a member for awhile but haven't posted for a number of reasons some of which have been health related. Be that as it may.... I'm in my early 60's and been riding for about 40 years. I live in south Texas in the winter time and Sundance, Wy. in the summer time. I have several different bikes but was talked into buying a 1985 K100 RT sight unseen by a buddy of mine. It isn't running and will probably be a larger rebuild project than I was led to believe by my "glass is half full" friend. I've been studying the K bike and am intrigued by the engineering. This one will probably get turned into a naked standard so some stuff will probably end up in the for sale area. One question I have for you that have many miles on K bikes relates to the brakes. Is the stock setup adequate or is an upgrade called for and if so how extensive? Thanks.
