I thought it was about time I signed on. I've own my K100RT for over a year now but had the disadvantage of short legs and getting the balance right. This was solved with some good boots. I always wanted a BMW and I took the chance when this bike became available. It may be an older model but I still enjoy it. I'm also contempalting transferring my side car onto it so my wife can come with me. Researching subframes at present so I can attach it. Any suggestions etc appreciated.We've recently moved to Rotorua from Auckland and have been involved in some charity runs using my sidecar outfit. looking forward to touching base with other Forum members.brucecq
