K11 Owners Group

I decided at the last minute to ride to the BMWMOA rally in Redmond, Oregon from my home in Vancouver, BC. It's a good day ride of around 800/900 kms (500/600 miles).

This year was the 30th anniver ...

Hello K bike gurus.

I just put a new battery in my 1994 K1100LT and it was working awesomely....for about an hour.

After a nice ride I got home, shut it off and when I went to start it up again ...

I have a problem on my 93 K1100LT with my engine cutting out on rare occasions.

Thanks, that's a descriptive reply.

I may do it that way but the rubber pad on the left bag is pretty much holding it together right now. Maybe they could Line-X right over it. I'll check it out. ...

I'm thinking of Line-Xing the bags and mirrors on my 93 K11. I like the look of it and it would be an easy way of covering the scratches and cracks I've gotten over the years.

Here's a website that lets you apply a tiltshift effect to your photos. It's free and easy to use. It's almost as good as using a real tiltshift lens.

I've been getting into tiltshifting some of my photos. It's difficult to find just the right shots to use but when it works it looks totally real. Here judge for yourself...

Glad you liked the pictures.

I didn't like the original BMW topcase - too big and heavy - so I got an old Pelican 1500 and bolted it on. It's just big enough to fit my tankbag, so now when I stop f ...

Thanks everyone for your input. I'm going to do some work on the bike this sunny weekend and see how it goes.

Hello K-bike gurus!

I've got a 94 K1100LT with notchy front forks. By that I mean at slow speed (10mph and under) it feels like I'm riding on a rail or a flat tire. The steering wants to go straigh ...
