I have always dreamed of owning a K100LT since first seeing them back in the early 90’s, but could not convince my wife to have the same dream. After getting the third and youngest child off to college I began to drop hints when ever possible. One Sunday after church my wife and I drove to a local restaurant for lunch (diner) just 5 miles from home and to my delight two houses down set a K100LT for sale. Monday morning I drove by on my way to work only to be saddened to see the bike gone. I did stop and found the for sale sign laying in the yard so I copied down the phone number and called that night. Surprise, the owner said he couldn’t leave the bike out over night and it was in his garage. After two weeks of negotiations with my wife and the seller, it is now in my garage. It’s a 1990, Red K100LT with 51000 miles, 2000 of the miles I rode in the last year with my wife riding with me for most of them. We ride almost every weekend and look forward to riding many years to come.
Happy with Midlife,
