2021-07-30 Update: Bike is sold
2021-07-11 UPDATE: New blinker relay installed, blinkers work properly now!

1990 BMW K75 for sale in Ringoes NJ - $2500 - 58K miles - Color 654 (Black): Good splines, new Shinko tires in 2018, new battery in 2019, includes 2 sets of hard cases, tank bag and lots of parts & spares (Full list below). Bike runs and drives well, pulls hard, revs, handles, and stops with no issues.
Bike can be delivered within 100 miles of Ringoes NJ for free, further than that I would just ask for gas money. Bike is available for inspection & test rides.
I'm selling the bike because I purchased a 2016 BMW S100XR and don't have room for both bikes.
Cold start video is included, bike hadn't been started in a couple of months so it's a true cold start. All pictures were taken this weekend (except splines) and represent the bike as it is.
Please reach out if you have any questions or would like a picture of something not shown.

nice. Looks to be a C model? I had a lot of whack with the flashers on a 75 s I sold, Finally bit the bullet and replaced the [expensive] flasher relay, that fixed it. I'd love to get another 75, especially a C, but I have to sell one of my 1100's first.

It's not a C, just a plain K75, not very common. I had a C back in the day (See my avatar) and it had the small fairing.
I agree on the relay, it's probably the solution.

Thanks for the info. You may be able to get a good used one on ebay, that's what I did. It's an easier sell if everything works.

Ouch! what are they made of, pure gold? Or maybe Bitcoin?

Turn signal relay new (with warning hazard): $200.00 from EME.

Unless you don't have 4-way flashers, in which it's $100.00 from EME p/n 2 306 014  And it's on ebay for $50.

Best to check the part numbers on your own relay.

Sold for asking price to an Harley rider here in NJ.
Thanks everyone for your help over the last couple of years.
Maybe one day in the future I'll have a brick again....
