New K convert from Cambridge
« on: April 16, 2014, 04:39:42 AM »
Recently sold my Honda Deauville and bought a 1990 K75S with 46k miles.  Reckon I have made a very good move.  Loved the delivery ride from Aberystwyth to Cambridge (225 miles), swooping through mid-Wales roads with plenty of smooth power.  I have just started partial retirement so will have plenty of time to tinker with the bike and this forum is definitely the best I have found for solid advice and lots of inspiration for what can be done with these fine pieces of engineering.

Welcome Ed,  The K75S is a wonderful machine that should continue to be an enjoyable ride for you.

You will have to tell us more about the re-vamp.  When it is back on the road, how about a ride somewhere?
