The radiator of a K75RT is larger than the other K75 models and their shroud won't fit it—a K100's will fit. You've verified your model with a VIN check?

Correct, thats just one I pulled from a google search.

The radiator of a K75RT is larger than the other K75 models and their shroud won't fit it—a K100's will fit. You've verified your model with a VIN check?

I just ran a check on it, here's the details I got back:
Chassis number - 0131318
Vehicle code - 0574
Series - K569
Model - K 75 C (0564 ( 0574) )
Body type - 0574)
Catalog model - USA
Production date - 1986 / 06
Engine - K 75 C (0564

Through don, i learned that the radiator covers are separate pieces. I didn't know this since my bike i picked up didn't have any body pieces.

Here's my bike that itll go on, getting close to finishing it.

Those VIN checkers are mighty useful. Seems like you're good to go.

Once you've verified your bike's year and model, you go to a site like MAX BMW's parts fiche to see what you need or to determine compatibility with other models.
