Hello all!

My name is Soares and i recently purchased a 1985 BMW K75 S with 8000 miles.
I decided to register myself in this forum in order to learn more abou the k series, the maintainance that it migh need and to learn more with more experienced riders than I.

Long live the brick!!

Welcome Soares,

Congratulations on your new purchase. Enjoy the ride and the learning.
A 29 year old bike with just 8000 miles is incredible - what a waste! Hopefully, you will put her to better use than the previous owner(s).

Hi Soares welcome to the forum. That sure is a good find, one of the original K75s and only 8000 miles.
If you go to the portal page there is a link to "So you just bought a K100 BMW what now" have a read of what Ted wrote it is very good information for a new owner.

Welcome from Idaho, USA Soares.  I agree.  What an amazing discovery: a very new old motorcycle.  I think you will enjoy it.  Many insist the K75s, with their smooth engines, are the best models of all.
