Title: HI from Hout Bay South Africa . only got a k bike recently .
Post by: Bobf4s on December 19, 2023, 05:40:22 AM

I was lucky to have a wife that understands my bike addiction . She also has a bike  license and rides also . Always wanted this bike  . Then heard of this one available  . 36000km. The chap who had it is a BMW motorcycle specialist . I have sent him an engine before to rebuild and am still enjoying it. He is 800km away  . I paid for the bike and flew there  . Landed at 12. He fetched me at airport and took me to his workshop too see the bike for the first time   . i connected up my gps , 'forgot' to fit the rear number plate and hit the road for home  . The plan was to stop at a friend half way and sleep over . But once i got going , the bike felt so good , i just stopped for fuel twice and kept on riding . Got home as it was getting dark , totally in love with the bike .   Wife enjoys the rear seat as its comfy so we use it regularly  .Not getting rid of my boxer twins but do appreciate the flat side also .

Great bike!  Luv the ketchup/mustard scheme.  Hard to believe those came out 30 some years ago.
