Hi everyone, Dicke here.
Its my first BMW, a 1983 K100 that is in need of a complete TLC makeover. Bought the bike from a chap on the central coast for $750. Its a runner......just. Needs battery, brakes overhaul, new clocks, fork seals and just about everything else.
Its got 100k on the clock and was standing for about 2 years. Going to get it blue slipped then go for a cafe racer.....sorry all you purists.
As can be seen from my avatar I have always had Triumphs, but when i got a job offer in Oz the bikes had to stay in the UK.
Will be looking for advice and any spares i can get at the moment.
Its a bit of a pig at the moment but hopefully that will change.
Cheers
