This thread contains the videos that Chris Harris has posted on youtube. A few other authors are noted as indicated. Note that this is Chris Harris' product and is not necessarily sanctioned by BMW or the MOA. So, take that into consideration. In addition, you'll need to put your "bleep" word filter on, because the guy is pretty free with his language.

Before the listing of the youtube videos, here's another link to K75 tech videos that was posted by drneo66 in another thread. Thanks for that!

Now the Chris Harris videos. They arranged mostly by model type...in most cases the subject discussed will cover a range of bikes/years within that model.
