Unique BMW k1 

77% of the k1  were sold in laguna-blue/ yellow and marrakesh-red/ yellow...
18% of the
 k1  were made in classic-black/ silver...

It means 95% of the  k1  are available in only 3 colors...


Even as a  k1  enthusiast I got bored of
 the 3 original colors

and after decades of use its condition lost attraction anyway.


I decided to try something different when the restoration was required anyway.
The 1st renovation was the white/black, the 2nd was the broom-yellow/black.
I realized soon, inspired by BMW, that the current available modern colors suit to the k1  very well.
