What points do I have?

When going through my 64 R50/2 I was pleased that everything was in very good shape, including the points. Gap was set properly and timing was spot on. So now the real question.

Re: Gasket (or not??) on fuel strainer on '92 GSPD petcock

On my 84 R100RS I had to use the gasket between the tank and the aluminum strainer to stop all leaks.

I think it comes down to use it or not, depending on what is required.

Re: 1966 Wards Riverside bike

The Wards Benellis were neat bikes in their day. There has been one on craigs list here in Colorado for a long time now.

And I am sorry about the 441 Victor (Victim). I had one of those in years past. When it ran it was a tractor but it did not run very often. LOL: :o

Re: Hi-res images of R100RS rear disc brake setup needed

What pictures do you want? Just all sides etc.?

I will try and get some from my 84 R100RS tonight if you wish and can tell me what angles you want to see.

Re: 1984 R100RS rear end splines....bad mojo?

I had a R75/5 that had about 1/2 left of what you have there. I rode it all over the place.

Just keep it lubed and keep an eye on it and don't PANIC :lol:

If there are any burrs you might want to file and polish them.

Re: Sargent / Eurotech 3/4 seat for R90/6

I love my Corbin seats and have several of them. Some think they are too hard but after a day in the saddle my butt does not hurt. :lol:

That said I have also had may Sargent's and do like them as well. They are lighter than the Corbin and seem to be about as comfortable.
