    Final drive oil seal 750T '91 (V65/50/750 Nevada)

    There is a wire type circlip there somewhere from memory. Once that is removed you should be able to lightly tap the end and it will move out of the bearing. Check the surface where your seal runs as it can run a slight groove into the metal and apart from getting it built up with chrome any...

    V100 spark plugs

    Are you sure you need to replace them yet? Iridium plugs last a lot longer than your basic lawn mower plug as fitted in most other vehicles. That is why they charge extra for Iridiums as well. If you have a service manual it should give you all details needed. If the US one doesnt try to find a...

    New headlight bulb

    IF upgrading headlight get some relays fitted to do the switching as the standard handlebar switches will not like the extra load. Eastern Beaver does some good plug in relay and wiring kits.

    V65 SP 1984 valve/spring upgrade to avoid dropped valves

    Interesting to see these comments regarding the 2 valve V65 motor. I remember seeing over the years claims the valve springs were too strong on the 4Valve versions but not the 2 Valve. Are you sure the motor concerned didnt just have a valve fail from use and age? It can happen as they were a...

    V65 Lario: Throttle free play too loose, not returning to closed position

    Marty, can I suggest you search the web or Ebay and find a copy of the owner's manual for your bike. There is a basic manual about A5 size that was supplied originally to new owners but over the years it is most likely on someone's bookshelf. This booklet will help you understand the basics of...

    Changing the air filter on a v65!!

    If you have the same filterbox system as the 85 Lario I own the fix is not too difficult. After trying PODs without much luck I reverted to the original airbox system but carefully cut out a window at the front. This was then reattached with a hinge to the box. Now all I do is remove the frame...

    V65 rear drive leak

    yeah guys the breather isn't blocked.Leak occurs at the large seal on the cast iron spider drive that the wheel mounts on.On my model this is also where the rear disc is mounted so when leaking the local authorities frown on not having an effective brake.

    V65 rear drive leak

    Anyone out there had an issue with wear in the rear drive of a V65?Bought the bike new in 1985 and drive began to leak within 5 years.When replacing the seal I noticed a groove worn in the rear drive by the seal.To fix this I fitted a speedy sleeve but that has meant replacing the seal every...
