New Member in the Blue Ridge
« on: July 31, 2017, 02:43:17 PM »
Hi all, new member here from Franklin, NC. I recently picked up a 1985 K100RS and figured I'd drop in here for advice, parts hunting, and heckling. I won't bore you with the details here, I'm headed straight to the Project Threads section. I've found a lot of great info here already, so I figured I'd join up and say hey.

Welcome to the forum and enjoy your "new" beemer.  They're almost as fun to work on as they are to ride. :bmwsmile

Welcome - I bought a fixer-upper K1100LT in April this year, and the information from this forum has been priceless. Good luck with your project.

Love the BRP...
I've learned to take it easy and just live with the campers and groups of three-wheelers who can't see past 35mph.
