Re: BMW K100 motorbike....

K100's are good for modding, they are relatively unloved, cheap and there are some good ones out there to copy.

I like the K75's too, they are supposedly a good bit lighter and feel better when stripped down. I think my next project is going to be a scrambler K75.

Are you sure the bullet is long enough? 20mm is the "average" but some have had to make theirs longer/shorter. Mine was around 25mm I think but I'm using an M3 cylinder. I had to fiddle about with the linkage to get it just right.

Re: Another turd lands at the Spook household

Looks Sea Green to me and my 318Is was that colour.

Bit cheeky calling it an individual colour on the ad....pretty sure it's just an E46 run out colour to spice up the option book for the last year or so.

Interiors on e36's always look crap on anything without a black dash IMO.
