PICTURE OF YOUR BIKE/BIKES

It is beautiful. Still got it?

It is beautiful. Still got it?

I had it for 7 years. A buck jumped out in front of me from nowhere and my brakes, though fully fettled, were inadequate. The bike would cruise nicely at 80 mph and handled very well. A man made me a very favorable offer. Was a very good machine!

I did have to put Timeserts in ALL the stud holes on the left side of the motor - but that actually didn't show up as a failure until a month or two after I bought it, by which time I'd already put over 1,000 miles on it. Other than that, which only took a day, it has just been a few minor things - replaced the cracked HT coil, put on new tires when it needed them, replaced the front disk pads, and, just today, received a new windshield which I'll apply soon.

Out for a ride today (Sunday, August 15, 2010) to Capitola, CA by way of Calaveras Road - one of my favorites.
This is the 1988 R100RT I got for $500 from a dealer almost exactly a year ago and had running the next afternoon. I've put over 11,000 miles on it in the last 11 months. Nice addition to my "stable." A new Clearview windshield should arrive this week to replace the one I crunched with my garage door - dummy!

John, I still think you take the cake for the deal of the century! WHAT A GREAT LOOKING RT! I don't recall what you had to do to it to get it going, but it sounds like all it took was doing the basic tune up/settings.

Rob,

I got stuck trying to post and then the kids came calling. Don't understand what went wrong as I used the image button, and then inserted the address between the two

SiG...a friend of mine has one of those, nearing 100K ks and still looks showroom. You may know of him? DJ Downunder?

"The Mule" - a 1978 R100/7 I used to own.
