The K100 was still a cruiser/tourer design in bias, and BMW marketing wanted a sports oriented tourer to appeal to a more youth oriented market perception, and compete with the Japanese factories. BMW was committed to the manufacturer imposed 100 bhp limit motorcycles sold in Germany, so decided that to address both issues it needed to turn to aerodynamics to solve the problem. This example in its original “Ketchup & Mustard” livery was completely restored circa 2010. Complete with original keys, manual, books and records.
