Hi there

I m Oliver, just entered the 2nd half of my 40s last year.  
 Originally from Germany (near Dortmund/Cologne), but living since almost 7 yrs in Tokyo. 
Riding since 2 yrs a 12/1988 K100RS in 623 Brillantsilber with ABS, gripheater, fuel-&temp.gauge, Touring-panniers ...
My bi-K-e has 31k Km on the clock, so it s still about 70k to ride till the first inspection ! Lol !  
Try to fix my bike as much as I can by myself.

I plan for the next spring to get her naked, with org. BMW parts from a K100 Basic/1. Still collecting parts. The RS fairing is beautiful, but Tokyos summers are just too hot for to ride around with a fairing!

Former rides were Enfield Bullets 350 & 500 cc (4yrs at India,11yrs Germany),  BMW R80 (Panamericana S.F./Ca. to Darien-Gap/Panama & back 1999-2000), Honda Dominator, Yamaha DT ... (love also dirt&gravel...  )

I m also a member of the Flyingbrick-Forum at Germany and some other BMW-/ & Bike- Foren.

Hajimemashite! Dozo Yoroshiku-Onegaishimasu! Nice to meet You!

Wish U guys always a crash- & crease-free ride

re-K-ards from Japan,
Oliver

Welcome Oliver. I was in Tokyo in July with the missus...what a great city! We loved it.

Enjoy your time here.

Hi everybody!

Thanks for the cordially welcome! 

@Henk
just remember Ur user-ID from the german Flyingbrick-Forum ...?!

Yep, Tokyo is a superlative, a great place to be! 
It s not only one of the biggest cities in the world, 
but also one of the busiest & noisiest ! 
Living almost 7yrs in the Metropolitan 23 ward area.
Sometimes I really miss some green, without the need to ride 1hr or more ...   

regards from Tokyo,
Oliver

welcome aboard ..
we look forward to your progress
 be safe

Hi Oliver welcome to the forum

Hi Oliver,
Good to have you with us.
Regards,
K-BIKE

Hi Oliver.  Nice to have you here with us.  You have a very impressive riding resumé!  -- lots of interesting bikes and travels! 
However, I must say I can't imagine riding in Tokyo on a big, heavy and fast K-bike.  It must be hard to get out of 2nd or 3rd gear there!
