Barry, have you tried one of the suppliers on the continent for a Bosch replacement set? I suggest Uli Motorradladen or S Meyer GmbH. I have had good...
Thanks Tien Have bought from Ulis before and will do so again (need to replace my exhaust and tank knee pads - still saving), but I am actually in South Africa...
My recommendation is (having gone through the same with my R35 and R27) to buy your bearings first and then go 0.015 - 0.025mm (about 0.0006- 0.0008")Â more...
Ben and Zareh thanks for your replies. Zareh, That is one nice motorcycle you attached to your reply. I removed my crankshaft last weekend and found a very...
... This procedure is called "knurling", and it is an attempt to restore the diameter, but not the metal, removed by having the bearings pulled off many times....
I plan on exchanging it with a rebuilt unit from Ulis Motorradladen . Has anyone on this forum purchased a crankshaft from Uli? It seems very well priced...

Thanks Allan, The pic of the other side of my bike was taken at my friend's garage in San Mateo, CA . We were working on his R60 (tune-up). I didn't know it...
I used a rebuilt crankshaft from Uli's in my R24, and it worked out fine. Richard Sheckler uses them all the time. I have not tried the 300cc upgrade, but it...
... My R27 is halfway there. It was abandoned under a beach house in North Carolina for ten years, which caused such deep cylinder pitting that boring to 4th...
Hi, I just picked up a 55 25/3 and am JUST beginning to get a grasp on it's condition. First off, the key is flat, not the cylindrical that I am used to, and...
Kevin, Common problem. Either as in your case the tabs are broken and the board is bolted on through the shell or as was with my mine the original key aperture...
... Beware that the R25/3 shell is different from the others in that it has a "dent' at the back to make room for the signal horn. Electrical boards are...
I think it is the correct headlight shell, it has the dished out area. There is a metal plate bolted to the top, where the tabs would be and the terminal board...

... In the Files section here, there are diagrams for R25 and R26. The R26 diagram is large and colored, and perhaps not much different from an R25....
there is a detailed schematic for the r25/3 which may help. i don't know if there is any difference or not between r25/2 and r25/3. it can be found under...
Kevin As you have allready guessed that is not the original generator. It looks like an altenator and possibly 12 volts, check the light globes or the ignition...
