Hi All,

I'm the proud new owner of a 1893 1983 K100 - myself and a friend are going to use it as a project bike and turn it into a cafe racer! I've seen some really fantastic examples online - that brought me to this site. really hoping I can get some great advice.

Colly.

Wow, a 123 year old brick. Steampunk model?  :euro 

Probably needs all new rubber bits.
