Greetings from Nottingham.
After being away from motorcycling for the last 13 years I recently purchased a 1988 K100lt off e-bay for a little under a Grand (my last bike was a K75rt which I used for dispatch riding).
Took it out for a first ride and I'd honestly thought I had lost the Knack of riding. I used it to commute to work for the first week and I was having serious doubts about my purchase and my abbilities. The handling was to say the least a little scary. I came to realise I had a slow puncture on both front and rear tires.
As soon as a new set of boots was fitted I fell in love with my new machine and am now very proud to be part of the Flying Brick family once again.
Once again, Thanks for having me. I know the information and knowledge you guys have between you will help me out no end. (1st thing I'v learnt from this forum was that my panniers DO actualy have locks fitted... under the little flaps)
