I am no expert. But i just did this and maybe my experience can help others. This 91 K100LT was in good but very neglected mechanical condition. It starts, runs and rides fine. But it had been laid down 3 times. the fairing and bags were a mess. The fairing was unsalvagable at all. I just pulled all that crap off of the bike. The thing was way too top heavy anyway in my book. I figuired I didnt need any 4-way flashers or ABS on/off switch or whatever the hell else that all was and I removed the ingition switch and dumped the rubber switch thing. I left the ABS on the bike. It works. No reason to fix something that ain't broke. I pulled the tank and pulled the wires out for all the switches and radio and etc. I cut off one horn--one is enough. My general theory of horns is that by the time you push the horn button, you are dead. But a horm is required in PA--one is enough. That leaves you with mounts needed for the ignition switch, one horn, headlighht and turn signals--plus that pesky hydraulic brake hose. Mirrors are no issue--I bought a pair of used Harley Sportster mirros at a swap for $15 and just put the left one on--all that is required in PA.
I'll cover more in my next post. If you have any specific questions let me know. I might not have answers but i can make something up...
