85 RS BlueBoy

Fresh out of the garage after 9 months of total rebuild. All rubber, seals, bearings (not internal engine), cosmic blue paint, powdercoat frame, SS brake lines, all cables, clutch, all hoses & clamps, clear windshield, head gasket, and a million stainless nuts & bolts. Afraid to add it all up. Side covers and lower fairing will go on following test ride and tweaking.

Who painted your tank and plastic parts? I am removing these parts from my K75S and putting into boxes to ship as we speak! :D
 
K100rs

Your bike made me realize something that hadn't really hit me until now; the K100RS was the most well-designed bike since BMW switched over from the R-series to K-series (in my not-so-humble opinion). All the bulbuous, overblown, larger displacement models that have come along since then cannot hold a candle to the K100RS' sleek elegance.

I never get tired of looking at RS's such as your stellar example.

Amen, Amen, you speak the word!!!

I assume a gem of a K1100RS like this one would qualify also. (not mine, but I wish)

cleaned up the 85 a saturday before the cold front came in. the bodywork was covered with a rough gritty dust/dirt, etc film from years of sitting. about three hours of hand polishing with a light rubbing compound got it off. have a new set of bt45's getting mounted this week and some overdue service.

My K and my stepson's CBR250. 1/3 the cylinders and displacement, if I were 1/3 lighter and 1/3 my age it would be a sweet ride!

Heh there Dointheton can't say as I have seen your bike around my parts. Where do you ride? PM me if you want to get together...except for the salt on roads it's Still nice to ride at this time.
 
I still miss her.

Traded her in @ 96,000 miles. Her name was wildfire.
She replaced Starfire at 163,000 miles. (A 1985 K100.)
Now I am old. I needed a lighter bike. We now ride Campfire, a F800ST.
Now, "ain't" that a bunch of foolishness?
