Description
By: Brooklands Books .
The first generation of K-bikes offered unique qualities and decent performance although there was excessive engine vibration, underdamped suspension and a hyperactive final-drive.
These problems were addressed in 1991 with the updated K100RS, which had a 16-valve cylinder head, upgraded brakes and reworked frame and suspension. Over the years power and torque were increased and comfort was improved. The RS had serious horsepower conferred by the hot-rodded engine that went into the K1100LT. Despite this criticism sales held up well. 1992 saw another revolution with the K1100RS.
This is a book of contemporary road and comparison tests, specifications and technical data, long-term reports and new model introductions.
Models covered include:
K100, K100RS, K100RT, K100LT, K100RS ABS, K1100RT, K1100LT, K1100RS.
