It is part of the attraction for me too. Who would give it a second glance?
Very well so far (only a very short try-out on a mix of roads). rear shock is set too soft for my liking and no C-Spanner or tool kit came with it (Motorbins order is building). The S fairing is quite efficient but it does make it more "tippy" into slow speed corners than the K75C I mistakenly sold last year.I just like it. It looks like a fine piece of two-wheeled transport. How does it ride?
K75 S innit.....
The colour. You really have to see it in the daylight.What's turdy about it? Looks like a straight K75S?

I didn't keep any of the spares I'd accumulated either.
This bike is a German import (2010). It has a new set of C-type handlebars so the riding position is not thrown forward as it would be with the tiny S-type bars. It's also got what looks like a factory modified S-type bellypan that allows the engine bars to be fitted (never seen them offered outside Germany).
It came with the original kph clocks showing 63,000km and MoT certs since import. It's now showing just about 55,000 miles.
The motocases are the last type with the better locks (facing out) and the bumper strips etc.
The seat is lovely (just what I need).
The horrible GS-style hand-shields are off already.

Be nice or I'll bequeath it to you.I even came back for a second look

I quite like that
In a rat bike kind of way
Behold, the two-wheeled turd:
Photos don't show the olive-green-brown colour in all its shitty glory.
Amazing what a freshly washed bike looks like in photos. It's certainly never had a hard life but it is a bit tatty in places.Ifthats your idea of a turd, clearly you've never embraced ratbike culture
looks brand new to me
