Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, Before posting to the list, there are things you need to know. The first thing is : there are 850 people on the list. If...

I would like to add a couple of photos to my web page on LWB vs SWB and the seat page. 1. I would like a picture of a SWB 70-71 seat with the two grab handles...

If I were to switch to Euro bars on my 1973 R75/5, would I have to change to shorter control cables? Scott Royer ===== __________________________________ Do...
I have been meaning to ask this one for months and just keep forgetting. The other day someone had a really cute one for BMW, but I have already forgotten it. ...

I'm sure this has been asked before but the nature of this board is that most replies are done off-line. I just recently swapped my US bars for some S-type or...
Scott, Yes, you really should change the throttle and clutch cables to the available "Euro" (shorter) cables. You don't need a brake cable as the same one is...
Scott: I have had no problem with the longer cables on my R60's Eurobars, but the excess cable I have sprouting is annoying from an aesthetic point of view....
All- I have a set of running lights on the rear of the /5. There is a wire from the positive battery terminal to an inline fuse to a switch to the lights...
I guess I have decided to put eurobars on my 1973 R75/5. The USA bars are not comfortable for me. does anyone have a source? I tried Eurotech and Re-Psycle...
Scott, You might consider R90S bars, just a tad narrower than /5 Euro bars. You might even stumble across a set of low Fehling Komfort bars on ebay. I finally...
Scott, Eurotech still carries the bars, they've just changed what they call them from what they did a few years ago. Their part #32 18 680, which they now call...
I was doing 70 today when power went,like running outa gas. One rocker arm has sheared, just near the nut. Both push rods are bent. Have not had time to look...
Eurotech has /2 sidecar bars, which are basically really wide /5 Euro bars. Note that these can easily be cut down to a narrower width to match a /5 Euro bar,...
I know that there are lots of different bar styles, and I also know that a lot of people like the Euro bars better. Both of my bikes have the "high" US bars,...
That sounds ugly. My guess is one push rod bent when the matching rocker arm sheared. Then the broken rocker arm piece bounced around inside the valve cover...
If a replica is OK, I got a nice bar from Powersports Pro http://www.powersportspro.com/trcatalog/?C=1 It measures 30 wide (I'll narrow mine a bit), 2.4 rise,...
I've used both over the years. The USA bars are better if one's using a Vetter or Wixom type fairing. The low bars are best for a bikini fairing or none at...
i would not go to euros unless you purchase a corbin or other race seat. with the lower seet the bars still feel comfortable. otherwise i LOVE them. control:...
I am putting new con rod bearings in and was wondering about lube. I know the clymers says to put Moly Disulfide on the crankshaft journals and the mating...
Well, FWIW, I have the low bars on my /6 and I love 'em. Mostly around town riding, some touring. First set of low bars I ever had and they are surprisingly...
My guess is the cam timing has gotten way out of adjustment, possibly due to the timing chain slipping several cogs. The reason I think the timing chain...
Not terribly unusual to bend or break an old pushrod, but I haven't heard of a rocker arm shearing off before. At least with the pushrods sometimes there...
Isn't there an aweful lot of friction between the Wheel hub and the Brake Hub? The Brake hub stays statinoary as the Wheel hub spins away and there is nothing...
I have a euro handlebar I purchased in late October of 04, still in the wrapper from Seibenrock, in Germany. I developed some difficulty with my back at work...
in the plan of things is this! if it rides metal to metal it needs something oil grease something Spline s hi temp moly or lithium I oil my cylinders some...
Stop what you're doing and start over. Or, perhaps, I don't understand what you're saying here. There should be NO "metal to metal" contact between the wheel...
Unless I'm mistaken, the Bikemasters are 7/8", which is a larger diameter than the Magura's 22mm, and may cause fitment problems. Let us know if otherwise....
