K11 Owners Group

I am sure mine (1999) has an independent earth wire from Motronic to ground which is easy to see. I think it is standard.

Thanks Inge.
I can now see that these lugs would be about the correct spot, but the lug only has the rubber bushed hole for the battery cover. There is no other hole nearby.
I thought I read that th ...

I managed to buy a tankbag base and tankbag for a K100 and similar. This is not the one shown in the attached photo. The base for this does not fit perfectly to my K1100 tank.

At about the same tim ...

I am new to this also and I have learned a great deal in the last 6 months.

Just reading your last post, did you make sure the oils levels in the gearbox and FD are now at the correct level and not ...

My bike has been running very well and I got a shock when I started it this afternoon to go for a ride in the perfect sunshine. It started reasonably quickly but then it was running like a woolly goat ...

Hi, is it possible to replace the O rings between the throttle bodies and the block without removing the airbox etc?
A BMW mechanic has sprayed some starter fluid around there and tells me there is a ...

I just fitted my set of LED globes to the instrument cluser plus the side gauges. The instructions were very clear and the improvement is well worthwhile. Thanks Drake.

I have left this problem for a few days because I have had visitors.
Thanks for the help so far. I have gained access to the relay at the ABS11 hydro unit and I see that I will have to undo 2 torx s ...

Hi, I have been trying to sort the ABS on my 1999 K1100LT which has ABS II. The bike had been stored for 9 years before I bought it 3 months ago but used occasionally and covered about 2,000 kms.

I changed the spark plugs on my 1/1999 K1100 and fitted Bosch XR5DC. After riding 300 kms I removed the plugs to check the colour and it was darker than I would have liked.

I was reading some speci ...

Hallelujah!! I cannot believe that I was unable to get to work before. Thanks very much again.
Initially I had no idea about turning to the right, but I guess that has something to do with driving ...

Thanks to everyone for all the help so far.
I have had my K1100 for a few months now and I have not managed to lock the steering. This has not been an issue because it is in a locked garage when not ...

When I bought my K1100 I soon noticed that neither plug had 12v to it. I subsequently pulled the multiplug from the back of both and sprayed them before wriggling the connections well on reassembly.

Has anyone moved the fuel and coolant temperature guages to a higher position so you don't have to look down at them?
I have been wondering if I could locate the guages to where the speakers are. I h ...

Steve, thanks I have already had the rear brake dragging a little after only travelling a short distance so I went home, made more adjustments and it is ok now. I 'released' the brake by screwing the ...

Yes John, I printed the manual when I found the free download. I have made a neat folder with tabs for all the chapters. cheers

I have just fitted a new rear master cylinder and I am not sure if I have done the adjustment correctly. Firstly I am not sure how far the pushrod should be threaded into the actual pedal and then the ...

I recently acquired mine from a friend who had owned it for 9 years and travelled only 2,000 kms. It had not been started in well over a year when I took delivery. The biggest problem was the fuel ta ...

I just did exactly the same job with the split tubing. I put a loop of tape around every 6". To do the Motronic cables I removed the battery and carefully released the wires from the clips under ...
