BMW K100 possible buy
« on: April 22, 2016, 01:26:05 AM »
Have been offered a 1985 K100
good points, it's cheap, $500
bad points:
                "starter motor needs replacing" have done a little research, it could be the sprag"
                 
are these bikes any good, I would have preferred a twin, actually don't need another bike but the price is appealing.
looking possibly for a quick fix then flick it off but you never know.
