Welcome Bobbiebongo.

If your are new to the K100, I guess you will spend a lot of time reading the previous posts, downloadable document and tutorials.

I believe that we have had subjects on most of the K100 problems.

If you start to dismantle your bike, take a lot of picture before removing any part. I may help you to put everything together without having a headache remembering the way that it goes.

Bert

Thank you bert . .

Hi Bobbiebongo and welcome and as for qualifying for this site you have an '85 K100 so that should suffice
Starting off with a non running bike is jumping in at the deep end but perserverance and patience will see you through.

Definitely no shortage of information or spare parts.

Enjoy,

"with the help of the site and its fine members too"

With that comment bobbiebongo, you are off to a flying start.

Welcome!

There's many a great holiday I had in Scotland when I was young great place! Really good to have you here and read everything on the site, most questions that could be asked have been, it is the best K resource I know on the web! Largely due to Bert and the other knowledgeable types.

As I have said before on the site almost every member on this site has nuggets of pure gold knowledge that answer a problem which is totally stumping someone else
Regards,
K-BIKE

Oh dear, I have just booked a tour to Scotland and the news this morning tells me that the Midges are worse than ever and it has driven campers and the like away. Also kept visitors inside the Hotels. This lot seems to be immune to repellent.
I'll get a Bee keepers outfit.

Ajays. See the photo I use. This was taken in the Highlands and the reason I'm squinting is because of the midges! Worth it though.
