Let L be the complexification of a real vector bundle of the tautological bundle over Real projective space RP2n+1. For k≥1, the K-theory Euler class of L⊕k is −2k−1([L]−1), and
K0(S(L⊕k))≅Z2⊕Z/2min(n,k−1).

The K-theory Gysin sequence of a sphere bundle gives an extension by Z, which splits as an exact sequence of abelian groups.
