That’s why I qualified it with “around here”. Every single one behaves this way. I’m sure there are decent cyclists out there. Just not near my house.

Incidentally, there are bike paths all over the place here, but they’d rather f$&@ with traffic than ride on the dedicated path just off to the side.

I wish we both were. Asking price for each of them is $3000, very good money for two very collectible BMW's. I'm good with just my '77 R75/7, but I'd still like to get a good D/S someday.

My problem is that they are collectible and I would probably ruin that part.

I have the exact same K75s in the same color with about to same miles. It pr0bably will be the last bike I get rid of as I age out of riding (several years away, I hope). It has been an extremely reliable M/C I have soft bags, not the hard BMW ones. I recently got new rear suspension on it, and now it is very comfy/stable (not to mention quiet) I once ran the engine with no exhaust on it, and it was quieter than my Uly with factory pipes.

Those K75's were one of the smoothest bikes I've ridden. The local dealer gave me a K75 Police bike. I didn't believe how much smoother it was from my K100RS. It churned out more HP per liter that the 100 too!

Ouch! Couldn’t have gone in on the rebound, but it damn sure tried. Ouch!
