Hi

Ride a K1300R - love it!

Joining because I saw a post in here that helped diagnose and fix a problem I had, so appreciative of the community knowledge and hope I can contribute to.

Welcome David!

Glad to hear the forum fixed it for you!

K1300Rs must be quite rare in Australia, I'd have thought? They're fairly rare in the UK.

Hello and welcome.

Correct rear brake use is scientifically proven to shorten stopping distances in EVERY road situation.

I would say the K1300R is uncommon, but not rare in AUS.

The problem I had was a dead kill switch. Thankful I stumbled upon a post here describing the symptoms exactly as I saw it, and able to fix it with just with cost of parts.
