Got the /6 off the lift after a winter refresh. Did clutch and plates, carbs, top end, euro bars, cables, tires, brakes, bearings and all the seals I could reach. Took her for a short test ride yesterday (36 deg F) and will gift her to one of my kids for Christmas in about an hour. Merry Christmas Charlie! She should be good to go for a while!
The RS goes on the lift in the morning....

Cool '74 /6. One of my all time favorite bikes. Your's looks really nice, and with a new freshened top end no less. I'm jealous, ride and enjoy.
Thanks Barry Had two older fellas walk up while I was in Fredericksburg and nailed the year as well. Kick starter was what they were pointing out.
My '74 Came with a Windjammer. Ditched it after a couple of years. A buddy of mine rewired the bike back to stock. Now I got a complete main frame wiring harness to install when I reassemble the bike. Would hate to price one now.
I'm jealous. I'm in the process of selling my first bike a '71 R50/5. Second owner,bought it with 724 miles on the OD and like new condition when I bought it. It's a nice bike, but. I've gotta a lot of bikes and it's time to start thinning the herd. Probably got 10 bikes. I plan on tuning up a few bikes this year and get back to real riding. Hope to ride some of them then move them to new owners. Several R80's, R100's, Harley's. I'm almost 64 and I think I've got 5 more years if I stay healthy. Reality of life. Hope to hit the rally scene for a couple of years, like the good old days. Do a little riding and camping. Then I'm done.Thanks Barry Had two older fellas walk up while I was in Fredericksburg and nailed the year as well. Kick starter was what they were pointing out.

My '73 /5 is still waiting on me to finish the waking from it's 20 year long nap. Life keeps getting in the way, but so it goes. All the 3M wire cutting taps sure made a mess in the headlight bucket from the Vetter install and other add ons. You just have to be in the mood to deal with all that.
