  1. Yummy. Swapped bikes with a bloke who had a K75, back when I had the
    K100. I was very very very impressed. Extremely smooth and sweet bike.

    He was less than impressed with the K100 - rough and awkward, were his
    words.

    You could do much worse than the 75, especially if you won't be
    pillioning much. However, you do have to remember to ensure that the
    studs holding the rear wheel on are actually tightened before taking it
    on laps of Morgan Park - so I'm told.

    Frank Warner and a Meccano set.

    Apparently there's a lot of enmity between the K75GS fans and
    the K75G/S fans ...

  7. Mmm, that picture isn't Franks, it's McArgles. Is his a GS or G/S?

  13. That one(Franks) was built by a professional Clem. By Paul Rooney who's
    closer to you than me geographically.

    I had one of his modified R80G/Ss for a a while(shouldnt have sold it);
    Husqvarna upside down front end, lengthened swing arm, looong back shock
    (WP), 1000 motor, twin-plugged, braced frame etc. Was a lovely bike to
    ride, Marie should never have let me sell it and she's told me that too.

    Taken on Thunderbolts Way:

    Nice bike Alan, I see you have put on some weight since the photo was taken.

    A good view of the bench I slept on for an hour last time I rode back from
    Newcastle on my R100GSPD.

    I was really sick with a virus, from the looks of the bus load of geriatrics
    that appeared and woke me it is more likely that they fumigated and burnt
    it.
