I had a lot of oil to clean up from the belly pan. I still need to replace the rear main seal. I'll get to it around June.

This is how the EZ-Pass worked perfectly.

Lost a bolt that held the rear fender on.

The oil caddy was made un-square from a left side drop. It was easy to bent back to a squarish shape.

Overall I have to say the bike faired very well with the exception of all the dropped damage, and even with that abuse I still stand by the fact these old K-bikes are about as bullet-proof as anything on two wheels.


Ride it like you stole it!

You sure nailed it. I can't tell you how many times my 23 year old K75S has caused people to ask "Is that the new BMW?"

Our very lowest maintenance bikes are the K75s!

Thanks Voni.

K-bike love is life long for those whom these bikes speak to.

I have zero desire to buy or own any other bike.
Well, I do want to own a K75 and a K100...:whistle
