Hi All
Just registered on this site, like to say hello, my name is Paul I got my hands on my first "K" BMW about 2 weeks ago ( had a 1150RT a few years ago) drop it a couple of times seems to be more top heavy than the K. I used to be a mechanic for the Glousetershire Police force back in the late 70's just when they brought in the R75's and I did like them, compared with Triumphs and BSA's the BM's kept all there lights, panniers etc. where they should be,.. on the bike!
Well I hope to be picking some of you old timers on the K's for hints etc. soon.
All the best.

Hi Paul Pell !!!
Welcome welcome welcome....! Now, please add more details about yourself, pics of your "new" K, and a pic of yourself for the rogues gallery. Would like to see detailed ride pics as well as they happen, and before Midlands-Tim has to say it: Sign into to the UK riders group as well... you've got a very active bunch over there, so jump in with both feet...
Best of luck and ride safe...!// Ernie in NH
