Greetings from Idaho, the land of the spud. I don't have anything to do with growing potatoes but it seems everyone I meet thinks I do.
Anyways getting back to the more important things in life (BMWs). I'm the owner of a 2010 R1200R which is my main bike of choice. However, I recently purchased a 1995 K75 for my wife who wants to learn how to ride and follow me on my touring adventures (she thinks I just ride down to Vegas and spend a week in self-indulgent debaucheries). So with that in mind I needed to learn all about K bikes, of course I turned to the Internet, the virtual land of all information and truth. I mean it has to be true cause its on the internet, right?
So after exhaustive searching through various BMW forums and reading many semi-coherent posts and I found a reference to this wonderful site. And after reading many highly informative diatribes, I decided (against my better judgement), to join in the fun and educate myself about the bike that will probably consume most of my time in the coming year, or at least until I can get my wife to start doing the maintenance herself.

'like that's going to happen 
........I have news for you Cschmidt...her maintenance plan is getting YOU to do it, It's called D.I.Y. (Don't Involve Yourself !)
Welcome Cschmidt! My wife hasn't ridden her (new to her) k75s yet, either. We shall see who does the oil changing.
