Hello, everyone! Super stoked to find this forum. I just bought this non-running 1986 K-100. Hopefully this forum will help get me on track.
So, here she is. According to the P.O., she had been sitting since 07'. Last year, he pulled it out to put a new fuel pump in. When he started it up, there was a fuel leak that started the bike on fire. So far, the damage I've noticed is pretty minor; one of the clamp mounts on the air box is ruined; some of the wiring is pretty melty, but I think I can fix all of that pretty easily. I do have one worry, though. I noticed last night that there is almost no oil or coolant in the motor. So... That's my opening story.
