Description

1985 BMW K100 (1000cc) with 8. 00 miles on it!!!!!!!! Rare bike with unheard of low miles. In looking around at other bikes for milage I have yet to see one with less then 16. 00. I have seen them with as many as 100K. History:I am the second owner of the bike. It had been stored in a dry garage 20-25 years by my neighbor. It was promised to me when I was old enough and upon my neighbors passing. I put 2. 00 miles on it my self in weekend riding. Service:Immediately upon taking the bike out of the garage it was broken down by my personal mechanic with vast knowledge on old bikes (records are included. ) The previous owner had fogged the cylinders and drained the gas tank. The gas tank is stainless steel and looks like the inside of a beer can. The suspension was broken down and seals replaced. The fuel pump worked but was replaced as a precautionary measure as well as all rubbers replaced. Injectors were cleaned though were fine. Tires were replaces and a brand new front tire with no miles is on the front now (must have caught a small puncture last fall ride. ) All drive fluids and components were greased and oils changed. Radiators were flushed out. Brake master cylinders were taken apart and rebuilt. Brake systems flushed through. Defects:A slow speed drop from the previous owner that occurred in the driveway. Mirror has shallow scratches. Left fairing has 1 hairline crack that is 3 inches long easily glued. Left fairing is chipped away as seen in pictures. Very easy sanded over and repainted. I never got around to doing either because I was never concerned by this. Otherwise bike is in excellent condition with no tears. scratches. dents etc to be found. HandlingThis bike handles like a dirt bike once its moving. It feels flick able in all the right ways and as light as a bike half its cc size. The rubber in the handlebars are still in very good condition and take a lot of the vibration and other discomforts sometimes experienced on older bikes. The bike leans well in turns and can comfortably get pegs close to ground. It shifts very smoothly and the brakes work great. Reason for selling:Moving to the big city and if this had 60k on it It would come. but the city trashes bikes and I couldn't heart to do so. This would make a great bike for any touring enthusiast. The trunk bags can fit a ton and I have used it for commuting. They come off very easy and hinges work great.
