I previously owned a 1998 R1100RT which was sold due to an illness (cancer) clear now. Recently purchased a 1994 K1100RS (31,800) from a local motorcycle shop in Roswell. Its a typical small town shop catering to HD, Honda, Suzuki etc......I could tell they had taken the K in on a trade and just wanted to get rid of it. I took it for a spin and was really impressed with how it ran and handled. I'm not ragging on the R bike but I really like the K after riding it for about 500 miles. I like the smaller fairing and looks of the K and no surging. It seemed no matter what I did I could not rid the slight surge at low speeds on the R. I've been lurking here for a while and am really impressed with this forum. Loads of information about K's and everyone seems very friendly. Picked up the K for $2,000 plus TTL. My brother has as HD Ultra he spent mid twenties on and everytime we ride he always wants to switch bikes. These old Beemers are the best value/pleasure of anything I know. Thanks for being here........
