Holy cr@p... if I didn't already have a 93 K75RT I'd be all over this one! Usual disclaimer... not mine, posting for interest only.

Looks like the low seat setup.

It is mine.... will be picking it up on Wednesday! :2thumbup:

Congrats and welcome to the K75 world... you're gonna love it!

Had a K75 and a K100 back some years ago and am looking forward to getting back onto one. Now, I have to find a home for my R80ST, as I've got no room for two bikes now. :-(
-
Well, here it is! Now I just have to sell my R80ST to make room!

Very nice! Looks brand new... oh, that's right... 9K miles. It IS new! BTW, is that your R80 on NH Craigslist?
-
>>BTW, is that your R80 on NH Craigslist?<<
Yes, and I sold it to somebody in my town just tonight! :-)

Oh yeah, that's the first thing we do up here!! :-)
What I am going to do is take it in for a spline lube job. Although it's only got 9K on the clock, it's been doing a lot of sitting in the past 20 years. To me, spending the long dollar is worth the peace of mind.

Just curious as to where you're going to have the spline work done? I did my drive shaft splines but not 100% sure I want to tackle the input splines myself. At 28K miles I suspect I should do or have the input splines done before they become a problem. Couple of independent BMW wrenches in the Manchester area I know of plus the 2 NH dealers to choose from.
Congrats on the quick sale of the R80!

Probably going to have it done at Second Wind just down the road from me. That's not a job I'd tackle myself, for sure. I'll probably have the rear main seal and those in the tranny replaced while they have it apart. It's a lot of $$, but at least I'll have some peace of mind.

They're a real good shop so you'll have a first class job done there. So far I've been able to do what little maintenance my K75 has needed on my own. Clutch splines might just be the step that's a bit beyond me :-)

Yeah I knew Darrel back when he was a mechanic for the previous owners. He's done a real nice job with it since he took it over.

"I did my drive shaft splines but not 100% sure I want to tackle the input splines myself."
I've done ten spline lubes on various models since last Fall. The airheads are a snap. The three bricks were about a one day job apiece. The later oilheads are a real PITA.
Good thing to do, tho.
