Evening Folks,

I've been a member for a while now, but only just getting around to posting - I think I registered originally to get access to some attachments to a forum post!

I have an April '84 model K100RT. Ex police, though I've always been a little confused about its heritage.. The bloke I bought it off (a mates' dad) says he bought it off the cops in '87. But other folks tell me that if it *was* a cop bike it'd be a K100TIC, not K100RT.. So not sure..

I've had it since '04, put 60k km on the clock (third clock too.. sigh). In the last two years i've replaced the clutch, final drive, front and back master cylinders, and rear disc, converted to post-86 footpeg mounts, and to a post-86 exhaust. And had to tighten up that darned grub screw on the gear select shaft in the gearbox. It's been a busy couple of years!

Rode to Canberra last weekend to buy a trailer. Got as far as Goulburn on the way back, and the bike died! That was a long weekend! Couldn't get it running again on the side of the road, and I had NRMA on the car, not the bike - so they'd only tow me up to 50km. So i got it towed back to Goulburn, and the mrs drove down and picked me and the trailer up. Got home at 5am Sunday - then drove right back to goulburn with the 8x5 and picked up the bike!

About to post about the 'fun' I'm now having with the bike.

It looks from the forum like there's a bunch of Australian K100 owners on here - would be great to catch up some time, with some like-minded folk who understand why I keep this old beast Very Happy

Cheers,

Damien

Welcome to the forum...again. There are a few blokes in Sydney, as well as, in the Maitland area. We plan to have a "meet" in the south of NSW in May and another in September in Bathurst.

Welcome back to the fold ,Damien.
I'm relatively new on board myself, hope you enjoy your time here.
Bought my 87 K100rt ex police from a guy on the central coast back in 03' , it is still roadworthy (cosmetics not the best).
There are a couple of guys on the coast operating used K100 parts and bike resales. I'm not sure if they have ever been involved in this forum. I still have contact No's.

Thats right Ainsjac , a few mad K riders in the hunter region, the guys have the occasional meet up for coffee and chat in Maitland, maybe a get together sometime, Personally I have an overdue trip to Toukley , good as any reason for a ride.
Nice cafe near Norah Head ....let us know , we might be able to get a small meet happening.Would have to be a Sunday.
Anyone else interested.. ?
Be a good opportunity for a photo shoot for the contest.Great views with great bikes.
