    Definitely not saying this isn't a beautiful bike, but is "restored" the right word?

      Agreed ... obviously, the bike is not sporting all-original "F" parts. Nice-looking bike, though ...

      Anyway ... for those interested, here is the link to the actual Craigslist ad with a few more pics:

        I didn't mean to imply restored to original condition but restored to be "faster, quicker and better.

        I can make myself an "Organ Donor" very quickly on this bike if I am not careful.

        I have a built 1986 BMW K100RS with 160 hp Turbo charged coming in on Friday. Now I really have to be careful.

            Research shows 20 produced.
            I have seen other articles that said 200. We will see.
