  1. Hey , about 10 yrs ago I wen to an open house at the BMW store in Cape G , Mo. After I got home I found one of the slip-ons hanging DOWN and about to fall off . ---- ! The best of us miss things all the time . If you ride with a pack , everyone look at each other's bike . IDK why , but you will see someone else's "fault" before you see your own . It doesn't hurt to do a pre-flight , because there aren't many unnecessary parts on a bike or aircraft .
  2. I have 3 or 4 sets , you tell me ?
  3. How that bolt got out .............IDK . It took a long time to remove .
  4. Mine came with M4 . I replaced them just to have something different .
  5. They are Schnorr washers . The company is an Ann Arbor , Mi. They invented these . They are under most of the fasteners on this bike . Whatever fits the bolt an looks good can work . If the Schnorr washer isn't readily available , I would use a grade 8 flat washer .
  6. No brand , part # or any markings ? I have about a dozen things that look like this . They are distributor wrenches . Used to loosen the hold down bolts so you can turn the distributor and set the timing .
  7. This looks like a good deal . I would have a trusty machine shop inspect EVERYTHING before going together . I would use new rod bearings . Some use new rod bolts . Look at the main bearings too . When you reassemble , blow everything out w/air and use Lubriplate white grease when you go together . Keep the cam lifters indexed when you go back together and use a camshaft grease when you go together .
  8. You can't be too clean !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  9. I unscrewed the capscrew from my bike and measured it .
  10. It is a low profile socket head capscrew . It is a 12X35 1.75 thread pitch . there is a Schnorr washer along w/ Loctite .
  11. VFR ?
  12. I don't understand what you want . Is it part # 9 ?
  13. Pete , you always give good input !
  14. I did mine before the advent of the one selling now on this site . I made mine just long enough to miss the frame , installed a l.h. thread rod end and new rod to where I could adjust the lever height . Buddy , this has a quicker throw than any bike on the road . It went from Farmall to GP .
  15. One bolt at a time , one bolt at a time .
  16. I missed a K75 BMW and was pissed off like a tied coon about it . My best friend got it , fixed the damage . Started it up and it made all kind of noi$e$ .
  17. Peter , I am afraid your realism is probably correct .
  18. my Guzzi parts manual gives a 30113600 ?
  19. ok
  20. This virus is a MoFo ! I hope the best for anyone that gets it . we have one confirmed case in our county as of yesterday .
  21. Mmmmm . It's kind of major . Go through it thoroughly . Be sincere and deliberate with EVERY step you take . and yes , remove the engine , taking plenty of pictures !
  22. Awful close , 1964 . when she announced her name I %#I* !
  23. Honor Blackman passed 5/04/20 . For those that don't recognize the name . she was in Goldfinger as Ms Galore ! Need I say more ?
