You could always pull the engine from the Hammer and use it instead. I'd watch that video.

Yes, we are, and you were right the first time with the "s" in the title except the "s" should have been lowercase to prevent confusion with  K-bike S-model designation. There is no end to the facets of learning on this site, BAMBAM. It's the equivalent of Seafoam for grammar.

Every one should enroll in and support this worthy organization right now.

There's still time to repent your abuse. That at least may help you get a ventilated room in Hell for using the NGKs.

Just out of curiosity, has anyone here ridden a K1?  I wonder if that big ol" (proper apostrophe use for the deleted letter"d") front fender provides an increased airflow which reduces heat to the rider?  I could make one out of pieces of one of those yellow plastic trash cans I bet.

I want to say that johnny has. I remember him writing about the riding position being rather uncomfortable for him but not sure if he reported on heat

When I quit riding about 3 years ago, and sold a bunch of bikes to pay for 2 titanium connecting rods installed in my hips, I had to stop because I could not lift my feet to the pegs to start on hills or just ride off.  Heat instead would have been welcome.


It's strange, but it seems like I just fell into one of the best bikes for me again. 

Same thing happened when I got my R90/6 years ago at an auction.  The mechanics who worked on it from Engle Motors in KC were there, but stopped when I bid $1400.  Rode that bike for at least 12 years.  What a bike, although it wasn"t an S.  I was so thrilled to get it that I missed the camper trailer sitting right next to it!!

I'm liking this 94 better every day!!  Hmmmm, 94 bike, 1894 30-30??  coincidence.....I think not. :machinegun:

im with ya  just brought k1 home sunday afternoon   pouring rain today but i will try to get pics up  and really do i have to have one to enjoy and love them.   because i am highly impressed with my first beemer even with its low horse power compared to what im used to  its a blast to drive and much quicker than i expected   i just wish the beemer peeps were as nice and enjoyable  most of you on here seem like paronoid drunk recluses   as they say a little sugar goes a long way and i dont mean for makin moonshine    there that should set the blog on fire  thanks for your interest hope to see you at the ny beemer event

You don't own ANY bike, or you would have put a picture up. Why are you wasting time on this forum, what's your game? Time to impose the K-Bike Shun. BAM BOY, you are dead to me.
