Hi Guys
I'm a lifelong Scottish biker, having had various BMWs over the years. I usually have between 4 and 6 bikes, including at least one BM. Currently have 2 - ish - a 1984 R80G/S and a Grinnall Scorpion 3 with BMW k100 (8 valve drivetrain). I've lived in France for over 8 years.
Cheers, Wizzard

Welcome.....

Grinnal Scorpions seem to be coming out of the woodwork. I have seen 2 in the flesh in the last 4 months, but 16 valve engines. Very impressed with them.

Don't be too worried about a K100ish. Hover K100 over here as a K100ish too......it powers his hovercraft.

88KE and myself were in France in May and met a fellow K owner Bikerboy [and Jude].

Delighted to see you and its a great forum. Anything you need to know will be here somewhere....and everyone is very helpful.

Would really like to see some pics of your Grinnall Scorpion 3 and how its set up with the K100 donk.
I'm a little familiar with the Morgan 3 wheeler having assisted my ex-father-in-law at a few vintage race meets. Got to drive it around the pits a few times. A different breed to the Grinall I know but the configuration is fasinating.

Cheers and welcome to the show.

swelcome wizard, spotted a few pics of the Scorpian 3 on google images, gorgeous. Never seen one in NZ, perhaps we need to build one here. 
Loved France, may be over to work in Uk soon so if you know of any Ks let me know.

Hi Rick
The Scorpys are great fun, and affordable in terms of the power/fun/resale value stakes.

I've been in France a long time so I've no contacts for finding bikes in the UK now. Sorry.
Cheers, Wizzard
