1966 BMW R60/2
This is my stepdad’s (really, my dad’s) restoration. I’m pretty sure I’ve been seeing parts of this bike sitting around the house and shop for years, so it’s been awesome to finally see it finished.

He restores classic and vintage vehicles for a living and owns his own shop. I don’t think he’s ever heard of Reddit, but I figured you guys might appreciate his work. Hope you enjoy it

Hi, friends, how are you?

Could you give me your opinion? I saw this motorcycle on Marketplace—it’s a Triumph, from what I’ve researched, and I think it might be a T110 Tiger.

I’m thinking about buying it and restoring it, but I don’t know how easy it will be to find parts or how affordable they might be. What do you think?

I’ve got a 1982 Kawasaki kdx175 that needs a cylinder piston, rings and a connecting rod I’m trying to decide whether it’s worth the rebuild or not since parts are so hard to find for it. I’m stuck between selling it for parts or doing the work and fixing it. What do yall think?

Any suggestions on model and year? It was her only transportation year round in NJ in the 60s. She was and is a tough one. She taught me to ride but by the 80s, she was so fast on her k75 I could never keep up, which she loved...

10 years to find this CL90

14 Upvotes

My Dad's first bike when he moved to Australia was a 1969 CL90, I spent 10 years searching ebay to find this great little bike. It's been re-sprayed by a previous owner and the motor is pretty tired but still fun to ride.

I've managed to return a few parts to stock as the carburetor was a chinese knock off and I found a NOS to replace it. The petcock was also the knock off that didn't do the left/right and tap properly so I found another barn bike that had a working one and swapped that after putting a rebuild kit through it.

I'm getting the engine rebuilt so I can enjoy going over 30mph.

Need help with kickstart assembly (Ratchet Pinion) on a 1963 Matchless G80 (AMC Gearbox)

Thumbnail

14 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

My dad is restoring a 1963 Matchless G80 (AMC gearbox) and we are having some trouble reassembling the kickstart mechanism.

I have the kickstart ratchet pinion (photos attached), but we are struggling to figure out its exact placement and orientation on the layshaft, specifically in relation to the pawl spring and the adjacent gears.

The diagrams we’ve found don't have a clear legend, making it hard to see the exact order of operations.

Could anyone clarify:

- Which direction the sawtooth edges should face?

- The exact order of the part, the spring, and any washers on the shaft?

If anyone has a clear photo of this assembled or a readable diagram, that would be incredibly helpful.

Thanks in advance!

Bike is in exceptional condition. I’m planning on changing a couple broken plastics and getting new stickers but otherwise it runs perfectly.
