Hi all,

I guess this is a very belated introduction, as I've made over 250 posts to the site since registering in 2009. I live in the centre north of the city, in North York. I've own a BMW K100RT that began life as a K100RS, then got transformed into some hybrid between K100RS-2V and K100RS-4V, then got transformed into a K100RT and then transformed again into a K100LT. I've had the beast for 13 years now and transported it back to Canada from Europe where I had originally purchased it.

I have owned only one other bike in my life. That was a Kawasaki KZ650. I fitted a Hannigans fairing to that beast and really enjoyed riding it. When I moved to Europe, I was planning to return in 2 years but my residency dragged on and I sold the bike (got nothing for it unfortunately).

I don't ride as much now as before mainly because of the family commitments.

I've made my share of contributions in the form of tutorials back to this site. I think Bert has done a wonderful job of getting this site going and it takes a great deal of devotion to maintain it. Well done!! Well, that's it for now.

P.S. I did this intro so late mainly so I can access the download page but it's a good idea to have an entry in this section of the site.

and we have enjoyed the posts rob ....good onya bloke ....is it too late to say officially "welcome" ....giggle

Ditto what Charlie said and a great job on the bike, Robmack....very inspiring!

I guess it's not the time of year for biking in Toronto anyway. So enjoy the forum until the spring and then you might get out and about more.

I'm kind of in the same situation with a young family but I'll be holding onto this bike as I have learned the hard way that once you sell it's hard to get back into the sceene and hard to find the cash with small kids about. My few short trips since buying the K have told me that there is no substitute once it's in your blood. A short ride is as good as a months worth of any other therapy!
