Hello
« on: December 03, 2014, 10:03:23 PM »
G'day all from Oz.
Just bought myself a brick of the K75s flavor. I've been scouring the net looking for information on K bikes for the last few days. Came across this place and thought I'd drop in.
Been riding for around 30 years now, have a couple of bikes in the shed, all jap bar the brick. My main ride is a 1986 Kawasaki 1000GTR,  or as you blokes know them, Concours C10.
I'm currently restoring a Yamaha XJ750RL and have an RZ250 waiting in the wings.
I have an interest in older bikes simply because they have a soul and I can spanner on them.


Cheers
Phil

Welcome to the forum. I reckon my K75S is the best bike I have yet owned - suits my needs and riding style perfectly.

But you have to post some pictures!!

Nice pictures - the red ones are definitely the best.  But what is that thing on the back?  Are you delivering pizzas as a side-line?  :lets-eat:
