There's probably more than 5 of them still running. Luftmeister did roughly 100 turbo K100s.
What's much rarer is a K75 turbo (like mine) since most people opted to turbo the 4 cylinder bike when spending all of that money. The bad thing about the K75 turbo is that the K75S fairing didn't accommodate the turbo whereas the K100RS fairing did.

The turbo kicks in a little over 4000 RPM which is fun but it's also got Luftmesister "high performance" cams so it has better torque in the low end too.
Once I was riding up a long hill next to a stranger riding an R1100. Just for the hell of it I knocked it down into 4th and hit the turbo. He's probably still trying to figure out how a K75 could go that fast. LOL. _________________ 93 LT (x2)
