Greetings from the great state of Oregon.
« on: August 13, 2015, 12:16:58 PM »
I recently retired and was longing to get back on two wheels. I used to have a 94 K75S so of course I went out and found another one. My time is otherwise spent playing tennis (Mountain Park Racquet Club), working in the garden and studying Espaņol at Reed College. My first projects with the new old bike include installing a Gustaffson windscreen and diagnosing the cause of the burble and backfire. I hope to get her ready for a road trip through Eastern Oregon to Idaho. It's great to be back on a brick.

Welcome! Bike looks very clean, best of luck with it.
The throttle position switch is chief suspect in cases of burble and backfire.

Cheers

My old one was blue. I currently have a Mercedes Benz auto, a Suzuki Burgman scooter and the K75, all the same color.
