Re: Borrow a wrench or socket for top fork nut?

Duh.
Yes, and clearly haven't used it in a long while.
Thanks for the tip.
Any advice on re-installing? Clymers' manual says 87 ft lbs, which with this wrench, is likely more than I can get on it.
Thanks again.

Re: April 1st Sunday Ride / Easter on the Blue Ridge

Wish I could join you, weather is looking like it'll be glorious, I'll be in church, however. I know it'll be a great ride.

Getting R75/6 tach repaired?

While I'm on the Forum posting,
is Palo Alto Speedometer still the recommended
place to get a non-functioning tachometer repaired?
My tach on the R75/6 has been broken for awhile.
Definitely not the cable - checked that.

Thanks,
Tim

Borrow a wrench or socket for top fork nut?

Folks, I've got an 1974 R75/6 . Bought a Parabellum windscreen and to install it I need to remove the nut on the top of each fork that holds the spring in. I don't have a socket or wrench nearly that large. (It's about 1- 7/16 inches; 36 to 37 mm). Anyone (a) know what size it is (b) got a socket or...

Very sad, so very sad. Just can't imagine how they both managed to be so out of position. Says speed wa...

Re: May 1st Sun ride

Won't be there?!?! Dayum, I was hoping to unload all of the BRB stickers on Chuck. Who wants to be the sticker meister? Anton - I'm willing to do it - but I'll have to hand it off in mid-August, as I'll be out of the country for four months after that. And what time is the 1st Sunday ride gathering...

Late to this thread, but appreciate y'all taking care of this.
Very willing to pitch in $$ for RA and/or MOA club renewal fees.
Hope you've been able to get it corrected without too much hassle.
Thanks again.

Re: BRB stickers

Funny, I was just wondering if a re-order was in the works.
My last one peeled off in pieces when I washed the RT this weekend.
Reflective stock would be great.
I'm a traditionalist, so current color and layout is fine.
That said, not opposed color changes suggest. Black road?
Thanks for doing this.
