WCMF 2023 (classicbiketrackdays.com)

I think the Aprilia group (who were beside us) picked the winner.

Yep, those Aprilia guys are shit-stirrers.  Always stirring up trouble somewhere.

Huh. The Dragon Rally was held there this year. As for that BMW: it looks like some giant took the parts in one hand and placed them one on top of another without bothering to check alignment. It's awful, like so many are.

[edit] Sorry - meant to say the Dragon Rally was held there a few years ago.

Holy crap, do you guys realise that you've been sat around bellyaching about custom K-bikes, for FIVE YEARS on this thread??

I'll order a cake.

That ain't gonna last long enough. Better order a truckfull of popcorn.

The latest Kraze!?

I've just spent an entire ten minutes, of my life, considering whether that mahoosive headlamp is the nosecone off a Mosquito bomber, or a Gloucester Meteor. What is happening?




I think it's the Mosqquito btw 

just needs the k00 motor 

Which brings us nicely back to this guy...



...who always looks as if he's about to experience the ride of his life.

If you know what I mean

You're not suggesting he's anticipating a boots forward, arms up Harley rider coming up from behind?!

Nah, it's a K100 motor, a Harley would never catch him  

This. Just for the fun of it.

Nice welding job on the fuel tank!
No comment about the usual " seen thousand times before " surroundings.

I like the clear crank cover. Does it have a clear cam cover also? Would be interesting with the engine running.

By clicking on the blue link to follow the article you'll be 'rewarded' with many piccies. Yes, of clear engine cover(s).

I'd rather have the AN-2 or the PA-160.

looks good , i did this to a matchless and it was great watching the cam and valves working and watch the oil level which is why i did it in the first place  , i may try this on a K just for fun , time to set the miller up 

But, nothing new, many of us have always believed they're at the centre of our galaxy. 


The Brick in Space

"...nicknamed 'the Brick' for its visual impenetrability and rectangular appearance..."

Kut up K1

Hahahaha!*





*If it wasn't so funny it'd be sad.

At least your knees won't hit the fairing. (I have long legs and can't wear knee armor on my K1.)

Not so bad afterall...There's a nice job about the visual strong lines. But the usual gimmicks (short tail, full floater horizontal suspension) and the failed front fender are ruining the project .

very nice , one of the better ones for sure

Some great work on that, especially the way the tank's line has been continued into the fairing - best incorporation of the Insane Polygon (aka fuel tank) I've seen. Nice touch is the retention of the K1 signature eighties rectangular headlamp.
I'd have tried a squarer back end, to match the headlamp lines. The ducktail seems a little out of sync.
Front mudguard is a missed opportunity to do another nod to the K1 with a part enclosed job at least over the top of the wheel to match the fairing line.
It deserves something more original (and functional  ) than the 'stock custom' retrorides rear suspension mauling too.
One of the best though  .

That fairing reminds me of an MV Augusta America (sigh, dribble, drool) from the front.

1987 K100RS - not chopped to bits on Silodrome.

See it here for sale on Bring a Trailer.

How the heck does someone own one of these things for 37 years and put less than 5000 miles on it???????

Yeah, I wondered that, too. I s'pose if you'd simpy held onto it for 'future value.'

Bend OR is just round the bend from here, about 5 hours away.

He's not fully informed, the seller, as he's had multiple corrections on the bike's specs, like Monolever rather than Paralever, & etc. So far no one has told him it's not Motronic 2.1 but LE-jetronic fuel injection. I couldn't resist, so signed up and commented - politely.

My ex-bike K100RS in Australia, now owned by Charlie, was originally Motorsport livery, resprayed by the previous owner/importer who brought it in from Europe. I'd ditch that ghastly red upholstery quick smart!

The owner was probably too embarrassed to ride it due to the seat color.
