Looks like it's got an R series rear wheel, looks better than the stock wheel. The rest of it is rubbish tho'

[Count Steer]

That's howwid. (Even ignoring those mirrors ).

[DefTrap]

It needs work (I mean ffs that tailpipe on a caff racer) but I do like a stripped down brick.

[Bustaspoke]

That looks awful,it's like one of those adverts when the vendor has a 'ideal project bike' everything there just needs assembling & places the components onto the chassis for the photo.

[Mr. Dazzle]

Carbon weave does actually appear to line up with the bodywork, so on that basis alone it scores a 9 out of 10.

[mangocrazy]

A complete visual mess. And those front brake lines! And that exhaust!

Null points.

[Mr Moofo]

K1000s don’t really lend themselves to cafe racering. Maybe because the engine is such a lump , or maybe just as proof that you can polish a turd

[The Spin Doctor]

Does anyone ever actually turn the steering to see what those underslung mirrors will hit?

[Mr. Dazzle]

My problem is I can't see a K100 without thinking of B.E.A.R.S.

I had a CX500 & three Ks, so am always shocked that the most boring bikes are the basis for customs.
