WTB: K75S, K75C, or K75
« on: April 28, 2022, 12:42:53 PM »
Hello All--

Looking to purchase a good condition K75S, K75C or K75 standard. Live in Minnesota but happy to pickup or ship the right bike. If anyone is planning to list a bike, wanting to offer one up to a fellow K75 enthusiast, or spying one in the community markets, please let me know.

About 90% of my lifetime mileage over the past 20 years is on a K75C and a K75S. I have also owned a Suzuki, Honda, Yamaha, even an R1100S and nothing has pleased me quite like the K75.

Returning to the fold, eh, Dan?

I'll have a 92 Marakesh Red K75S (non-ABS) available some time in May probably.  76K. Clutch splines just lubed, maint records since 36K (Mick Vallatine did the work for the prior owner.)

I got it with 73K.

92 so it has Showa forks

Upgraded to 50A alternator.

I did a complete teardown/rehab of it when I bought it. Then rode it on the coast to SF and back with no issues.

LED everything

Good drive shaft splines.

Real cruise  control.

The fairing was showing it's age so I replaced it with a near new take-off fairing somebody had from when they converted the donor bike to a Pichler fairing.
Once I had a Collie pup. Dug a hole and covered him up. Now I sit there by the hour. Waiting for a Collie-flower.

Drake! Would be a blast from the past to buy a bike from you and one that was maintained by Mick. I will send you a PM with my email address for more info...
