Re: clubman handlebars

Will flipping your 'bars upside-down do it?
I am running R90S 'bars on my /5 and I am glad that they are not any lower.

Re: Bike Rego Plates

I deal in vintage motorcycle License plates for Year of Manufacture use and I have some that are not suitable for what I do, if you cover the shipping you can have them. I will go look to see what is in the "trade-plate-box". Vince Edit, I have 1977 Alabama, 2008 Texas, 2009 Kentucky and a...

Re: Driveshaft finish

On further examination it was Cad with dull-silver-paint on it, we went with Cad-plating. It got a bad news/great news phone call from the restorer working on my R2 this morning, the rear-end cover chipped on installation but it is repairable and I offered to send him some more $ and was told not to...

Re: Karcoma blues

All done (for now anyway),
Aired/dryed out the tank, wiped off all of the loose liner I could, blew the tank out with air, replaced both Petcocks and dumped the gas back in.

Karcoma blues

1973 R75/5: Saturday night I was riding home and the R75/5 was running fine but when I let it idle-down it would just idle-down to nothing, I felt like it was starved for fuel. I looked today and the right Petcock flows like it should but the left lets a drop through about every 4 seconds! (I had a ...
