Hello,
I have done a fair amount of work on the front end of my '74 R75/6 over the last years. This included upgrading to dual disks, new fork seals and boots, new rubber (Metezler lasertech, 3.25"). Recently I have been plauged with an annoying problem. I can't seem to maintain clearance between the front tire and the fender brace. I have had the fender on and off several times. The side of the tire is rubbing against the chrome brace for the fender on the left side. I don't want to be bending things to get clearance. Is there a shim for the axel spacer which can effectively move the wheelleft to right in the fork? Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
Theo Marks
