r100rt

Hey everyone, I am currently gearing up for a 2 month tour of the US and am outfitting my 1991 r100RT mono-shock to be a bit more comfy for the journey. It was originally a bermuda blue RT but the previous owner converted it to an S and removed/sold many of the parts including the engine guards...
