Pretty bike! I love beemer bikes. You can find older ones for a reasonable price and they are incredibly well built. I just finished rebuilding an 04 R1150R and an 02 R1150GS over the last six months. Parts are readily available and there is so much existing knowledge documented in various forums and threads to fix pretty much anything on them.
Awesome. The R1150R is a lot of bike for the money. Love those. I have been tempted to get a GS, but the stable is full at the moment. Well done.
Thie K1300R was almost a purely emotional choice. I needed one from the moment I saw the launch poster. I got this one for an affordable price, because everyone wanted the S1000RR and old K bikes have terrible resale value.
I am also keeping an 1983 K100, in RT full fairing trim, on the road My local agent's parts guy found most of what I needed over the years. Even things like dash panels can still be found new.
I am looking through some older bike pics to see what was interesting. This is my K!300R, 2009 model. I have been the steward of this fine machine since 2017 and so far it has treated me well. The most fun thing about it is the on/off nature of the power. It is either cruise around nicely, or take your face off as it roars.
