Hi,I'm new here but not to motorcycles.Been riding 49 years now and yesterday one of my friends gave me a present,a 1988 BMW K100. So here I am with no understanding of this motorcycle trying to learn about it.My main ride is a 1975 Moto Guzzi and then there are my Yamaha 2 stroke twin road bikes from the 60's & 70's that I use around town .I'm also doing a fix up of a 1972 BMW R60/5 which I'd like to use for shorter trips. The K100 is in nice shape .It has 12,000 miles on it but hasn't been run in 10 years.He had it all serviced by a BMW dealer in '04 then parked it because it just wasn't his kind of bike or something. Anyway,now it's in my garage and I'm wanting to start prepping it to run again.It has a full tank of old gas I have to drain and I want to change all the other fluids as well. Any information on bringing this gem back to life would be very welcome. Thanks,my name is Ed and on here I go as yamaguzzi
