hello, new owner in Utah
« on: May 05, 2013, 01:17:42 PM »
I just picked up this '93 K1100LT for $1,500! It has 82K miles and still runs strong great power no smoke. ABS is inoperable but otherwise pretty normal working stock bike, Corbin Saddle. Going to use it for a road trip at the end of the month from Salt Lake to Washington for Sasquatch music festival.





I have a large varied bike history, I've got a few other bikes & project bikes, never anything like this before though I'm excited for my first real road-trip bike!
That's what I love I work on cars/motorcycles, body/paint, custom fab. Love building custom bikes.
One time I rode my Yamaha R1 for 2,000 miles from Salt Lake to New Jersey in 4.5 days, I had a throttlemeister device to work as cruise control and I fabricated some custom temporary handlebars to use for an upright seating position just for the trip..

I think it is a stock color yes.

Bike is registered now, and I have new brake pads & new fork seals on the way.

crazy weather, goes from 92 degrees the other day, to cold jacket weather again here in the city, and this weekend just might bring some fresh snow/powder days up at Snowbird ski resort still!
