Picked up a 90+% unmolested K100 Tuesday.
Title says it had been an RT, but the Headlight housing looks like a Standard. No, didn't get any of the RT fairings or saddlebags.
Short handlebars and a stubby straight pipe are all I've come across that looks non-OEM.
At purchase it would start fine, but bogged on giving it any gas. When I got home, I disconnected the return fuel line off the rail, hit the starter several times. Reconnected it and it revs pretty freely. I've gotten it up to 55mph on test rides, but there's some hesitations at different spots in the RPM range. I'll pull the injectors and clean them.
Also got most of another K100 and a Harbor Freight bike lift.
In the box of parts there's a padded envelope with a receipt for $117 for higher performance injectors, and the old ones in that envelope.
