any one know where i can get these decals from .
 
I’ve recently bought a great K1200LT from this parish. Riding home yesterday evening in stifling temperatures, I chuckled to myself with the Multitec propped open, radio blasting and Oakleys on. Sweating Cage drivers and Mr R1 mouthed obscenities, but I don’t give a damn!

Great bike and I’m so happy to be back on a big tourer..
 
K1 acquired from this very forum, first ride, great bike

K75s

Bought "Kati" as a retirement present for myself.

We took her to the USA riding for about three months, around the UK and into Europe (this photo).

Many happy memories.

Just took mine for it's MOT (Passed with flying colours of course) today.
Lovely day so I took a few pics on the way home...
I bought the bike brand new from Rainbow Motorcycles (when they were in Attercliffe) on 16th April 1999, so 22 years next month. I still have the Rainbow keyring :)
It's been a truly fabulous bike Done the NC500 many times (before it was the NC), and Europe trips at least 3 times, once as far as Croatia...

Sadly, now considering parting with her. The garage has my R1200GS (one of the very last 1200's with TFT), a Honda NC750 DCT (my commuter) and the K1200RS. My old knees struggle with the K now, preferring the seating position of an "Adv" bike...

Build quality on these bikes is absolutely stunning, and puts the newer bikes to shame. They really were beautifully engineered (altho they can be a bugger to work on!). IMO one of the prettiest bikes ever built!

Need to give her a good scrub now, as the roads are not as clean as I thought!!!
 
1989 K75s

Still getting to know each other (2k miles) but looks promising.

Very nice. Me and the girlfriend enjoyed ours.
 
Bought this 2003 K1200RS a couple of days before Christmas and had it delivered last week. MOT'd the next day (clean pass, no advisories!) and I'm pretty happy with it so far. Admittedly I've only done about 30 miles on it, but it's so smoooooooooooth! Time will tell if I keep this and replace my 1150GS with it, or if I keep the GS and get rid of this. Or I just keep both. It has some ridiculously thin panniers too, think I can just about fit some sandwiches in them... Maybe!
