I'm new to this forum, but benefited from it a great deal during a K1 project that I'm wrapping up. So I wanted to let any K1 aficionados out there know that in the next several weeks/month I expect to be selling a 1990 K1 (ketchup/mustard!) with 14k miles. Wanted members here to have advanced notice and time to think about it before it is listed online. Great mechanical shape, all the impossible to find body work is there and in good shape. Would like to see it go to someone who will appreciate what the K1 was for BMW - and who will see to it that the body work makes it another 25 years! Will post photos when its done. - Frank
Update Dec. 18
Ok, here are a few photos. Once it had a fresh battery, plugs/wires, clean fuel tank and fresh injectors, cranked right up and runs great. Hadn't been touched since 2005 as near as I can tell! Plan to list it on the usual internet sites after the Holidays but if anyone wants to discuss before then, feel free to PM or email.

Sale fell through. Back on the market.
Bike has to go. Just needs knowledgable owner to finish it's journey back to the land of the living. K1 had been sitting for many years due to prior owners' inability to obtain title.
the Good. I found the original title holder and now have legit title in my name. I put the bike back together (it had been largely disassembled by PO when he had a garage replace the transmission) and need it out of my garage. 2 miles on the new transmission.
the Bad. Body is good but not close to perfect. Most of the smaller panels have been repainted in original color. Fuel tank has a slow seep. The bike runs but not reliably and sits on tires that must be replaced.
I will include a long list of hard to find K1 parts (61 of them) and hundreds of misc BMW fasteners in any sale. Can send photos of all of them.
