My bike is one of those K100RS Special Editions with the blue and white pearlescent paint.
It's an '89 I bought from a BMW dealership in Mississauga (long since defunct) in 1990 that had been using it as a demonstrator. They claimed they acquired it during a promotional ride put on by BMW in Europe. I've always found the sticker on the gas tank a little amusing:
In the early 90s I did some long trips on it -- across Canada and then down the Pacific Highway all the way to the Mexican border and back; down to Atlanta and back a couple of times.
These days it just sees local joyrides. My wife and I just got back from an overnight in Kleinburg, Ontario -- that's the furthest it's been in years.
It was nice to discover this site and see so many enthusiasts for the old iron. Keep the shiny side up! :beer:
