Hi there all,Finally a k Bike has entered my garage,I have 2 bms,a 74 R75/6 and a 93 R100GSPD,both in original condition,as well as assorted Jap bikes.I paid $750 for an oxidising,unused for 2-3 years 109kilometer K75C example.Always a risky move when they dont run.The tank was full but definitely had moisture in it. I am going through the mechanicals on a clean up/see whats stuffed basis before spending up!Gearbox,final drive oils clean and ok around magnetic plugs. I have lubed the splines in the drive shaft. Next step is to take out fuel filter/fuel pump and check those out,then look over the fuel injection system,now thats new territory for an Airhead,give me gravity feed anyday.I am currently restoring a MatchlessG80S,a 500cc single so this is an interesting contrast.So here goes! I am enjoying your technical articles. Cheers from Australia.
