My 2001 k1200lt has 175000 miles on it and I still can't wait to take it for a ride. I've done a lot of work keeping it running well. I just changed the plug and did a compression test and all four cylinders were great shape. Thanks for all your help keeping my Lt running and in great shape.
Same thing for me. Without Kirk's videos I would have been done with my 2000 LT a decade ago.
I have a 1999 K1200LT with well over 100,000 miles on it. It is my daily driver. What an absolutely amazing bike. She is a beast. Reliable and fast.
This video came at the perfect time!!! I have a 1999 LT that’s been sitting for 7 years and my Dad can’t ride it anymore due to his knee. Gave it to me and I want to get her back on the road…ironically just before it was parked we went through the whole thing…rebuilt shift linkage, front damper, spiegler lines, resurfaced rotors, new pads, final drive serviced, new tires, valves adjusted, gas tank quick disconnects, new k&n air filter, new windshield, etc….can’t wait to get her back on the road.
sounds like you have it pretty well sorted out
Makes me miss my 99 LT. Also, great work that you did on my GTL!
Kirk, even though I sold my 2000 KLT, I love watching you work on the finest road bike ever made!! 😊
Thankyou for sharing your work. I have a 99 LT and it is my daily rider, I love it.
KIRK GLAD TO SEE BACK ON UTUBE GREETING FROM NORTHEAST PA I HAVE A 2005 WITH 10K ON IT LOVE IT NEED TO RIDE IT A LITTLE MORE....BEST. JIM
great to see you again
Hey Kirk, good to see you're still making videos. You were an amazing resource back when I had my 2000 KLT. As soon as I saw your clutch replacement series I put it up for sale though. Switched over to an FJR1300. So much easier to work on. Sometimes I miss my big blue couch though.
I would like to see that shaker tube in action
Next time I need it I will make a vid on it but here is one for you now. ruclips.net/video/EmGgzeBiPhE/видео.html
Nice video Kirk. I'm currently doing the clutch in my 05 and I wish I could work as fast as you. I see you have a new watch as well. I'm an OMEGA guy as well.
I truly LOVE my watch! So classic and functional! Thanks for noticing!
@@kirksmotorrad Omega are great watches. The only ones I own that actually go up in value. I have a couple of Speedmasters.
I'm Wazza off the K1200 LT forum.
Had 185k on my 03 when we got hit from behind by a truck, Loved it.
OMFG. A cross made out of guns and bullets...murica!
Hoi ik heb trouwens nooit laten weten over dat ik de stuurdemper nieuw gevuld heb, maar dan met vork olie 5 in plaats van 7, maar dat is waarschijnlijk net te dun dempt wel maar met de handen los van het stuur slaat het stuur nog wel een beetje heen en weer.
someone help me please, my first motorcycle I have a k1200 lt 2001, I'm working on it, I bought it from a person who left it parked for 9 years, I did everything necessary and now it's working, but when it starts it emits smoke with shades of blue or white, I don't know, and for a while when it's running it slows down with smoke, but it doesn't stop coming out, signs of wear on the piston rings are common on heavily used bikes, but it only has 18,000 miles, it could have been damaged by stay still for a long time?
Smoke is normal on startup if you left it on the side stand.
Hi from Finland 🇫🇮,I got to ask you, what clutch do you recommend?
How did you get rid of the pimples in the chrome work. Everything looks amazing.
Liberion 4/0 steel wool. dry. Works wonders!
It looks very good. We have a wireless portable motorcycle speaker with a BMW motorcycle mount. Looking forward to cooperating with you, how can I contact you?😊
I would like to know what should be done to a bike that has sat like this one other than the gas tank/filter, air cleaner, etc. Please list out what you would do, Thanks.
I change ALL of the fluids and the brake lines. I inspect all of the rubber parts and the gas lines and remove the alarm if it has one. If you listen to what I did on this bike, it is a pretty good list.
Looks to be in pretty good condition for being laid up for so long.
Its in great shape!
Yep stale fuel is a smell you never forget.
Was the tank inside corroded?
Not at all. The bike is in great shape!
I'm 5'6" tall with a 30" inseam. Can someone my height handle this bike?
best way to find out is to get on one. I would think you can but will be on tip toes
What did you find with the front shock?
An excellent question! The shock was in great shape. That oil was from the blown out steering damper throwing oil at speed back onto it. I swapped both the shock and the spring though to freshen it up!
What tires did you put on it?
Shinko 777 HD rear Dunlop Roadsmart 4 front A great sticky combo!
@@kirksmotorrad do you have a video on this specific setup? I’d really be curious of your thoughts. I’ve ran 880’s, 888’s, and now BT20’s. All have their pros and cons. We did 3 days in the rain on the blue ridge parkway in the rain with the BT20’s and actually enjoyed them. But cupping front and life are not the greatest.
@@edhoffius4389 I did one on the Shinko but I dont think I did one on the ContiAttack yet
