K100RS

[beemuker]

Was thinking of getting something with a little more ye haw to compliment my K75, was thinking a K1100Rs, but saw this on CL. Pretty far, 6 hour drive, butts looks reasonably priced and It is an RS. Watta you guys with the eagle eyes think. Wish it had the rear rack so I could fit iconic 22.

LT bars?

Not crazy about the white saddle.

Otherwise looks like a fine specimen.

Probably one of the better examples out there, I'd ask if the original bars are still around.  I like my city cases almost as much as my iconic box.

Despite its having a high handlebar, it still has the RS low bar crash pad so converting to low handle bar would only involve installing a bar using a shorter front brake hose and accelerator cable. When I converted my moto to a low bar, the clutch cable seemed to adapt to it.

I've got a stock, black corbin, and a sargent from K75's, so any of those should fit the K100, right?

Clear windshield, Euro model?  Not sure about the white seat, but there are lots out there to replace it.  Paint doesn't look bad and it still has mirrors.  49,000 miles isn't bad.  Looks to be well maintained so the splines are probably nice.

City cases!!!

Almost any K seat from 86 on should work.

I believe I have an extra rack/trunk mount for the tail cowl section.
I'll take a look if it makes the deal for you.

thanks, I'll let you know if I bite

[beemuker]

I bit. going to pick it up Saturday. will post some pics .
probably will try to go back to the stock RS bars . Does anyone have some lying around they want to part with? according to Max's  they are the same as the stock bars on the 75s .[ 32 71 1 453 072   ]
 seller thinks he has the shorter cable, so all I'll need is a shorter brake line.
I'm sure the 75s will be jealous, hope it won't start turning green, I kinda like the yellow.

Honest to god, the only time my K75 stranded me in 33 years was on my way home from putting money down on my Ural.  Maybe buying a closer relative will assuage your K's apprehension, maybe not . Congrats, remember, the proper number of bike is always one more.

Maybe your K-bike's daddy lost a few toes on the Eastern Front.

Or maybe any lower bars maybe the C bars will work without changing out the cables I’ll know more when I get the bike maybe I’ll like the taller bars but I doubt it

Shouldn't be difficult to find a pair on Ebay.

Nice find! Looks well kept. I got your bars right here. PM if the high bars don't do it
Speakers and Radio Controller you'll be jamming.
Good luck with moto

Let me know if its Bluetooth/Ipod compatible?

[koapono]

shall I search for the rear rack? it's yours if I have one.

you'll get used to the "buzzy" bars, sweet spot is 80MPH, it'll run there all day long!

thanks, I'll let you know. Let's see if I come home with it Saturday. I've gone to look at bikes in "perfect condition" that would'nt even run.

The dilemma I see in my owning multiple Bricks would be that all of them will be ridden less. As tales of woe on this site seem to regularly depict, idle time is not healthy for Bricks. I'd likely be wrenching more and riding less which would mean even less riding on the one I'd probably be riding most.
  No can do.
