Camshafts. R45 cam in a R90!? 😳

Can you put a r45 cam in a 247 engine? The reason I ask is because, as far as I know, the general cam specs of the 284 cams in the r50 and r45 are the same, except that the lift in the r45 cam are slightly higher. I use a r50 cam in my r90/6 with sidecar. The 284 cam gives a lot more torque in the l...

Charger lamp

I installed a motogadget M unit on my bike. Its nice. I removed the starter engine and kickstart it. The ignition output from the m unit goes to the coils instead of start relay. I have no start relay at all. The power output of the diodeboard goes directly to the battery. The D+ from the regulator ...

/5 stator housing

I broke the stator house on my 75/5. Im looking for a new one, but im familiar with the 105mm (originally for the /5) and 107mm stator house sizes. www.largiader.com/articles/charging/


I can only find 107mm models in shops.

Does anyone know if the 107mm model fits my /5??
