Yea I have the straight Karcoma to but the screens where torn, removed and in one of the saddle bags when it came to me. I did a gas tank rinse in the fall and threw on some large inline filters in an attempt to get some pre snow miles on. I just shook the tank around and rinsed it out with old gas ...

Thanks for the posts guys! This is going to be my over the road hauler so I want to have every thing tight and right. I agree that the time to change the tranny is the minuet I have a replacement. (and an afternoon) Yep, I have the log book started and I'm bugging the former owner ( who's a friend) ...

Roger that on the keeping an eye out for a tranny. This last time I dropped the fluid there was fuzz on the magnet. I haven't found flakes other than the first time I changed it. When they go out do you generaly get to finish your trip home or do they just go clunk and stop. Vanzen, I had hoped the ...

I wanted to say hello to everone and give a big Thank You to all the fellas that advised me this last fall! http://boxerworks.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=487&hilit=clutch+newbie I drained the tranny fluid before purchase and the magnet had fuzz and a few...I'll call them flakes. No 3D chun...

You can't put a price on good advice and a good network. When I land this deal I'm signing up

Thanks for all the responce! Well I'm still leaning into this R100 deal.

He'll pay me if I ellect not to by the bmw from him but it ...

Ha! I thought GOOROO looked a little funny but I quess you knew what I was talking about!

Gosh. Thanks for all of your input! I'll have some very specific things to key in on upon giving the bike a second look over. I'm bringing some tools. There are quite a few for sale in my area (CDA Idaho USA) so I can afford to be a little choosy. It's always a gamble buying anything used. I do spin...

Thanks for the input! So if I understand correctly the shifting into first with rolling is fairly normal however obviously the grinding is a concern. I did meet the mechanic and he has a good name around town but he probably just rode it around the block.I should talk with him personaly. Rob, I know...

Hello! I'm pursuing finding a BMW and am excited to find your forum! Currently I'm the proud owner of a 1964 BSA Bitsa which will stay in the stable but I've been looking for something with a little longer legs for longer road trips. The question; I test rode a 1984 bmw r100 last week and loved it. ...
