Fivers, I'm looking at getting new silencers from Epco for my R75/5. I've purchased their products in the past for other airheads and have been generally ...
Anybody know if there is a book or web page about modifications we can make on our bikes? Little things, like grounding the battery on the tranny bolt and H4...
i went to the emgo sport mufflers. They look great, smooth seamless classic look. They are louder, i can still hear my valves over them just fine but they are...
Before you do a complete rip & tear to transplant everything into the 90S frame, you should look at: -Fork Alignment. -Steering Head Bearings. -Axles. -Wheel...
I have a few spare parts I'm hanging on to for a complete rebuild I'll do in a few years when my current drive train gets tired. Any ideas on a good way to...
The EPCO (not EMGO, which are Chinese made) look more than a bit like the Norton peashooter; they ARE the EPCO Norton peashooter with the BMW bracket and ...

I'm thinking of selling my mint original (not restored), 2985 mile, black 72' R60/5 Toaster, since I'm looking to buy another pre- war/wartime bike. I have two...
Wooden boxes are a good idea. My early Clymer even has plans for a shipping box for sending the transmission out for repairs. Another thing would be to see the...
Fivers, Thanks very much to all who responded to my question about the Epco mufflers. Looks like I'll be going with the sport mufflers. Second question,...
All- My GF's 1971 R60/5 has started misbehaving recently. It starts and runs well, but once warmed up, the engine will start idling very high (tack needle...
I just picked up a set of headlight supports that have the reflectors mounted on them. My '73 (VIN:2999159) had the "old style" reflectors (mounted on the...
Several possible causes: * Air leak at the spigots - aggravated when head heats up. * Auto advance unit sticking - this is not uncommon. Pull front cover...
As you know, I don't race /5s, but I have done a number of front fork repairs over the years. If you stay with the basic stock parts you will want: * '72 or...
Also check that the choke levers are returning to their full off position. I've heard leaky enrichener gaskets cause this symptom as well. As well as anything...
An idle that is too high after a long ride is sometimes just a result of the initial idle being too high. Both my 850T3 Guzzi and my slash 5 did this for...
All- I once had a book called Motorcycling or Motorcyles or Motorsomething, written by several authors (one of whom I think was Allen (or Alan, etc.) Ross). It...
So far - each issue I've hit has been covered here well so I thought I'd try again. Having an issue with my front brakes. Started with my brake lights ...
... Of course you know your '73 has the wrong reflectors for its year, right? FWIW, my '72 doesn't have the flat parts on the ears, either, nor does my '68...
About 25 years ago I bought a "sport kit" from Capital Cycle Corp that was to improve the dampening of /5&/6 forks. The kit contained two upper threaded...
Sending this to the list too since it may be of interest to others: I'm not at home (down in Florida at a conference) but what I find so far on the web that is...
It is very difficult to say what is correct for a 73. This is due to a large number of bikes made for the Italian market that were not sold. They were...
