Greetings from a new member! My last K bike was an 87 K100RS I put about 70K on in the 90's. I've had 4 bikes since then, and I thought the excellent Honda NC700X would be my last bike...
BUT, I happened to notice an inexpensive K11RS on Craigslist around Christmas time, took a couple test rides, and all the good memories came flooding back. It seemed like an ignored stepchild, just needing some deferred maintenance, a few parts, minor repairs and a little fiberglass work. I've always thought the early KRS series was one of the classiest bikes ever made, and I'm delighted to ride one again.
How do I post a picture to show y'all? Does anyone have a spare right front blinker lens?

First of all- WELCOME!

Here is a thread that explains posting pictures. You have to have them on a hosting site. You cannot post pictures directly to this forum.

This explains it --->http://k11og.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5894

As far as turn signal lenses, you might want to contact beemerboneyard in the U.S, Moto-Bins in the U.K.

BobsBMW.com shows the lenses on their fiche so you might want to contact them to see if it is actually available.

Good luck!
John

Welcome, as John posted, pictures have to be hosted somewhere else(some can cost $, and some can be free) and then linked.
Don't be surprised as you look thru old posts(including mine) if you see/find dead picture links since photobucket discontinued linking service for free accounts. You will find a lot of these all over the internet, not just here.

As far as the front turn signal lens, I wish you luck as those are practically unobtanium anymore.
All you can do is keep your eyes open on e-bay and look for owners parting out bikes. Bike breakers are another resource to keep checking on as well.
