It is "mindblowing" though Veg. Says so in the ad! I take it does nothing for you then being a fellow BM rider?

The good old flying brick eh
Not even worth a fifth of that
Interestingly there is an 89 version of the same for 1795 quid advertised too
HMMM
K75's are better though

If I had a spare £15k I’d rather pay someone to torture the prick that built it than buy it. £15k would get you a lovely ns400r with 465 barrels etc. Or it would build you my tz/lc or a memorable weekend in Amsterdam. And my bimmer has gone, replaced by a couple of walls.

Only thing I remember about the K100 was meeting my friendly local bike shop owner at Knockhill one day and I was telling him we were held up getting to the track as some guy had binned his K100 on a bend and the ambulance crew were scooping him up
Sympathetic dealer simply said "deserved it buying one of them"
😳

From certain angles in the photos on their website the design looks to have been strongly influenced by the London Hipster's favourite the GS Urban

I will stop you right there the urban gs is a tribute to the gelande strasse r80 of the 1980’s it’s a pared back normal motorcycle celebrating a bike made before hipsters were even pre spunk let alone born. Don’t you dare imply gs urban riders are hipsters, yes I might have a beard, and tattoos oh and piercings, I might wear a belstaff leather jacket but I don’t use beard oil I live in the country side and I’d rather pierce my own testes with a rusty nail than have that k100. Oh and I’ve just sold my urban.

Well veg.. reading your CV above... I find it incredulous that you don't use beard oil! I reckon you have some, you just hide it under your tweed flat cap..

Found out it’s all a blag bugger I do indeed own several flat caps I also wear tartan suits for work.

That is quite possibly the worst two wheel desecration I’ve ever seen. Unfortunately these imbeciles are on our planet. Our world is slowly being taken over by morons....and this is just good evidence ! i know I’m getting old, with early onset grumpiness, which is actually not a condition in itself, it’s just when you become too tired of remaining politely quiet when a few home truths need to be said.. My only hope is that in the future an AI bot with evaluate such ‘artistic creations’ for aesthetic and classical beauty determining that the creators should be sent for immediate sterilisation...

I think there a lot of old grumpy's on this forum. There seems to be more threads with complaints about the costs of parts and bikes than real post with information over the bikes. Makes it easy to spot the grumpy's, just look at the names in the threads
