I just re-registered after a years long absence. My K100/1100RS has been in "storage" for years, barely getting ridden at all. The good news is that it is stored inside inside a climate controlled space. Several years ago I went through it mechanically to get everything up to date. A year or so after that I went through it cosmetically to return it to a looker. For several years now I have just ridden it to get state inspections to keep it registered. This year I have gone through the suspension to make the ride better and have decided to keep it in the bike rotation and ride it more.
I bought it new in Oct. 1985 and have just turned 327,000 miles. The act of turning that number proved too much for the odometer gears and they gave up. A new set of gears and we are back in business. Almost 20 years ago, rather than rebuild the 8 valve engine, I swapped a '93 K1100 16 valve engine, Motronic, airbox and exhaust. Needless to say, this is the setup I wish it had from the factory.
