Hi all. I'm Jer as my login name suggests. I recently acquired a spotless, 20k-mi, silver on black, 1997 K1100LT.
I'm a long term member of the BMWLT forum having owned the same 1999 K1200LT for over 10-yrs.
The K11 looked too good to pass up and I was looking for a bit more power than my 1985 R80RT provides. Soon to be selling the RT with regrets.

Welcome to K11OG, Jer. Best of luck with the LT; there is a wealth of archived info and a fairly decent bunch here to help you sort out any issues that may come up as you become more familiar with the bike.

WelKome to the forum.

You'll have to more careful how you park now since the K1100LT does not have reverse. Very Happy

Thanks for the welcome, Niemand. I'm really looking forward to finding out all I can about the K11.
Have fun,

Thanks for the welKome! Not quite a large as the 99LT, but still larger than the R80RT. Will be a challenge to backup with the tall top box.

Have fun,
Jer
