How To Start Bmw K100

Shhh: This BMW K100 Café Racer Runs On Batteries | Bike EXIF

This could be a big money saver, but it can also be a source of concern if you don't pay attention to the following points: The K100 is originally fitted with Bosch X5DC (or can be fitted with the NGK D7EA). Both are non resistor spark plugs and here is the reason: The original BMW spark plug cap already integrates a resistance of 5KΩ.

I was doing some work on my K100 earlier in the spring and made a silly mistake -- swapped the fuel supply and return hoses on the tank. The bike wouldn't start (obviously).

A word of advice on starting a recalcitrant Kbike. If you get a low voltage start, it's entirely possible for the starter relay to weld itself shut and the bike will continue to crank itself, even after you turn it off and take the key out. That can be very, very exciting, let me assure you. For this issue, I'd start with checking to make sure the starter relay in the relay box under the tank.

Before starting it, I've always found that a quick flip of the throttle and putting the choke lever to the first position will have the bike start right up. (It's a fuel injected engine so technically it's a throttle advance, not a real choke, but BMW labeled it a choke so that's what people call it.) There's no need to let the engine warm up.

Before being able to begin, we will have to place our BMW K100 on its side stand. So let's start by inserting the key into the ignition lock, and then turn it clockwise. After that, we will have to open the petrol tap, located under the driver's seat.
