Welcome Auto e Moto,

Two K's - the start of a perfect kollection.
Very nice looking RS, if you can get you K75 Turbo looking anything like that good you will be really spoilt for choice on which bike to ride...when the winter snow gives way to the cherry blossom.

Winter here in the UK too - but, to date, the weather has been exceptionally mild with temperatures in the low teens, so not many excuses not to ride. Actually we need some serious rain to wash the road mud and filth back into the fields.

Enjoy.

Sapporo
Hello from Japan Places-Of-Interest-In-Japan-Sapporo-Hokkaido
Thank you for the Oodori Park, central Sapporo.

Yes, Sapporo is a nice city .
In spite of severe winter condition exists, cold and very snowy (average snowfall ca. 6m) , over 1,900,000 people live here.
There are excellent nature around the city. 
Only after 30 minutes cruising, You can reach sea, lake and mountain.
So, from spring through autumn I can enjoy riding a motorcycle.

Some of my friends ride a K100RS with stud tire in winter under snowy and icy condition.
They always ask me for winter riding, I can't do that lol

Thank you very much.

OK, there are many K lovers!
However, many people do not join to overseas groups because they almost communicate only in Japanese.

Thank you very much Born Again Eccentric,

UK is a country of yearning.
Someday I would like to go to Isle of Man.
I am impressed by the British race soul.

I bought a K 75 turbo at Japanese auction site couple of years ago as a junk.
I heard that man from USA brought it to Japan.
It had a Luftmeister turbo, but did not work.
So, to restore it is my projeKt.

If you klick the link at the bottom of my postings, you'll see my bike and a bit Bologna from my last trip when I visited the Ducati factory in Bologna and the countryside where I live in Germany with my red and black bike.

Cheers

Hi Chocolate,

Nice places both of your countryside as well as Bologna  ! 
Nature, historical buildings and animals heal our minds. Pretty Kitty And Lovely K!
You swims in the river?  Very fast water flow?, You are tough guy Smile

Oh!, you also interested in Italian Bike !
Ducati is like a Ferrari, Isn't it?
I have red and black Moto Guzzi  which I think like an Alfa Romeo Smile

For the project, I will contact RB Racing which produced Leftmeister Tubo.

Moto Guzzis are cool, nice bikes and a lovely engine.
My Kitty is the master of the house and steals my food, if she can.
My neighbor has a old Guzi V7, good compared with the Alfa Romeo.
I always wanted a Alfa Romeo Giulia from the seventies.
Maybe I get one when I'm selling the bikes, maybe :-)
But you can't have all. My Ducati is a old red Monster.

Good luck with your Turbo Project.

Cheers

Thank you I will do the project and post here.

I also love classic Alfa too.
Actually, I have a red junior zagato 1300 with 2000 engine.
Friends of mine also drive 105 series...
I think you can do that In the future.

Monster... It's also Cool!
Old V7...  I like it!
My Guzzis are  Le Mans 1000 ultima edizione imported from Nederland and Targa 750 from UK.
All Carburetor model. 

They all are fun to drive. 
Feelings! That is Important, I guess.
Of course I also love K-Bike and that's why  I am here. Smile
I have a second project for K-bike, which is for 100RS 2V.
Now still in secret.  lol

Cheers

Welkom!! A couple of quick questions...
When I visited your lovely country (many, many moons ago, 1983) I stayed with a friend in Matsumoto, middle of the main island. We did a major road trip in his Datsun 180B, 4 adults, two kleine kinder and heaps of luggage. The speed limit was 80Km/hr on the open roads. Is that still the case?

Also, I imagine that the Sapporo beer is made there? Lovely drop!

Rickmeister.

Hello from Japan Sappor11
Sorry for late, reply.
I was out for few days.

Oh, You had enjoyed Japan visiting, don't you.
I'd like to visit your huge country, someday Smile

Well... I'm not sure about Speed limit of open road around Matsumoto.
I am ready to confirm it, After driving over 1100 Km. lol

If you have a chance to visit Niseko Resort Hokkaido, please call me.
It will take almost 2-3hr from Sapporo.
Many Australian people visit here for winter sports etc, and is like a foreign country!
I love to touring aroud here with my K-bike! 
There are winding road and country roads.

Second question...
I am sure that Sapporo Beer head office and Factory are in our town.
I loved Black Beer, although I do not drink, now.

Thank you very much.
