K11 Owners Group

In less than 2 yrs the K engine will be shelved. Time to move on to a different machine. I liked the power and brakes but utlimately it turned to be a pure highway machine.

I will probably end up w ...

|SOLD TODAY!

Member in Indy BMW club bought the bike. He is really happy and I'm going to buy a mule to replace th K.

Think that is "Green" enough?

Or a Vespa? Wink

I am offering this machine for a rock bottom "recession fighter" price:
$2500.

You can part it out for more than that.

Martin

If you are interested, make an offer. I would also consider a trade for an Oilhead or R bike.

This bike has gone through a lot of careful work. Have 190 pics of when the clutch and etc was done. Ba ...

Thanks guys. I'm selling because my wife cannot ride with me anymore - hence I don't need a top heavy bike anymore. She has arthritis and can't get on the bike easily.

Looking to get a lighter mach ...

79,500 miles. New Russell Daylong Saddle, Works Rear and Front Shocks, Clutch + O ring + rear seal, Speigler SS Brake lines and CC Bailey 4" taller windshield. $3600. Make an offer.

Riders, you can have a contaminated clutch via bad O-Ring or leaking rear engine seal. My guess is with the age of the rubber components, when either rear main seal or O-ring start to fail, the other ...

This is weird - I found the problem,

When I replaced the brake lite bulb which msyteriously decided to burn out on my 1st ride, I must have shoved the taillite back in too quick.

Next time I rod ...

Guys,

Apparently the K1100LT is harder than the KS because I had to remove the gas tank and fairing. After looking at the location of the line under the gas tank, I opined that it looked like I wou ...

[size=18]1996 K1100LT

Guys, finished my K two weeks ago and took a test ride. The Brake Warning Lite started to come on, then flicker and finally stayed on about 1/2 way on my 260 mile test ride. ...

Scott,

I was all set to replace the brake hose from the front master to the site under the gas tank, but decided after a lot of looking that it was a real PITA do I quit. Ended up replacing all lin ...

Duck,

My 1996 K1100Lt with orig clutch at 73K was still good -dont know how much life it had left but the pressure plates will OK. Had the rear main oil leak..

Martin

Yes the measurements are from the top of the transmission filler hole.

I have a shock adjusting tool I have never used since I have WORKS shocks for my 1996 K1100LT

Guys, I tried the shock adjuster but it was too short to reach correct depth of 4.6" and was not useable.

I made an "L" shaped tool using a steel rod about the thickness of pencil le ...

I had a problem with my relay because my battery was too weak. Gulp! You are correct - they are expensive but I bought a new one AFTER a new ODESSEY battery. Wink

The BMW relay was made in Malaysia ...

I'm always interested in what others try on their bikes - interesting take on making a Naked K.

A new club??

Martin

Gang,

Ordered the S-BM0107 from Spiegler for &185.95 (all 5 hoses for K1100LT); with 2 speed bleeders ($14) and shipping (10.67) the total bill was $209.62.

Will let all know how it went.
...

Thanks for the advice - I'll probably just order the kit from Speiglers since BMWMOA has endorsed them.

I would opt for custom made lines via hydraulic shop but I really want the bike ready to ride ...
