So I picked up my new-to-me 96 K1100RS Saturday. So far it's been great. I was a bit worried about the "high" mileage, but after looking around on here and talking to a few people, I guess it's not that high. It's just over 50K. I was really impressed by the service at the dealership too. I'll do my best to search first, but I'm sure I'll have questions. See ya all around.
Only pic I have now.

Welcome, that is a sharp looking RS.

Don't worry about the 50K, that's about average for the age. The years are more of an issue with seals and gaskets drying out and such.

You won't find a better resource for these bikes than this group.

Actually I'm in eastern Iowa, Davenport to be exact. No the VFR is all mine. I can't get rid of it. Especially with the D&D exhaust, so sexy. I would have traded it in otherwise.

Here's the VFR

And the Bullet

So todays the big day. Taking the K to Des Moines for a few days.

It is amazing how the (new owners of Royal Enfield) have managed to maintain the British tradition of the chrome on the exhaust bluing up with a little hard twisting of the throttle Smile
