Hello Gerry welcome here from Tasmania!

What kind of K bike are you riding?
Pictures would be great.

Enjoy the forum and ask question when ever you like.

Cheers

gary Gerry ./..you need at least 3 posts in this area ...(members introductions )  and some time for it to bind

its a flood control thing  that stops spammers quite well


have a look here for how to host pics on the website

https://www.k100-forum.com/t998-posting-pictures-and-movies

there are other options from hosting sites ...google,  drop bucket, facebook and others as well

so give it a couple of days and try some of the recommendations

good luck

 Just  a few pics. As can be seen the PO did a fantasti job - when I saw the bike close up I thought it was a new one off the factory floor.

I was very fortunate to pick it up 🆒

Cheers

Thanks for the idea re: the clock Paul - I tried it but the LED is shot so I will have to save up for a new / used one G'Day from Australia 177381

No concerns John the K100RS will not be made into a cafe racer   G'Day from Australia 112350
