Ive read a bit about it on the pages you've send. So its a /5 bike from '71, its only one of the fork legs which seems to be broken in some way. I bought it this summer, and tried to change the fork oil, none came out of the left fork leg. I thought, okay - maybe there simply any in it. But i couldn...

i remember it like there was a difference between my old /6 and my "new"-"older" /5, but i dont know to what extend.

Hi everyone
Does anyone know a site with or a treat on this site with a good description of front fork maintenance of a 75/5? Bearings, gaskets and rings? I dont have much experience with this stuff, so i dont really wanna go out in much alignment and so on if i can avoid it.

If buying top clamps to mount the tubes higher, how do you handle the middle/center nut?

I've had it for 8 inches, also with the suggested freeplay, so thats already done, and ive adjusted it using the handle lever screw. It brakes at the handle bar lever. Im suspecting it was too little with 8 inches due to the high tension on the cable?

Hi
My clutchcable have broken twice in the last couple of months. I cant find any info on the tension and adjustment of the clutch lever arm. Does anyone know how tight/the cable and lever arm must be on a 75/5 model?? See picture

Does anyone have any experience on how to lower a /5 front fork? I'm thinking maybe lowering it 1.5-2 inches.

Now i've ended up ordering a Motoren Israel regulator/rectifier unit to replace the diode board in hope of better charging. Does anyone have eny experience with this unit?

Would it be a good idea to replade the diode board and regulator with a newer rectifier regulator circuit?

My motorcycle had a hard time recharging the gel battery ive used. Which kind of battery i best for short trips, are some batteries easier for the bike to charge?
