Will you still talk to us? A lot of guys on newer BMWs don't always talk to us K owners. A software problem of some kind. Wish you well on it, but you might miss the K!

See, its started. Comberjohn wants one too!

Notice the language change. You ride a K100 but drive a K1600! The Irish Eccentrics would not be what they are without Comberjohn's input so looks like I have to wire up a little cappucino maker in my top box for future runs.

Well done larrikin, I couldn't afford the BMW clothes that apparently you have to wear if riding one of them.

Where have you been, not seen you for quite a while. Looks like the K1600 is tempting you.

The one thing I love about this forum is the fun with people we never meet, and of course the fun with the ones we do get to meet.

Except I don't like espresso.........I prefer tea. After all, we eccentrics live in the country that drinks the most tea per head......yep, its true.
