I believe so. That number supersedes 32712072189 which is what I recently purchased from Meyers. No mention of brand on their site though.

Hey Colin, I have good luck with Ulis until I don't. Their catalog is a collection of both good and bad quality parts. When I have received inferior parts, they have never stood behind them and mostly don't even respond to emails to the affect. Their shipping rates and speed is pretty good especial...

All done. I used a 6" turn buckle that opened to over 7" and wrapped both ends of the turn buckle with rubber (held in place with zip ties) to protect the inside of the tower. The shock towers were spread just enough to squeeze the seat bracket in. Worked like a charm.Thanks again Vech. Ke...

A side note on the bench seat .. I just switched to a bench on my '55 R50 ahead of a ride to the Airheads rally in Death Valley a week ago. Taint as purty to my eye, and I originally intended to switch back after the trip, but won't now. My bike went from being uncomfortable for me after 100 miles ...

Thanks to both of you. I'll let you know what I decide and how it turns out. Not scratching the paint is important but originality is too. Thanks again.

P.S. My avatar is a painting of the R26 as purchased about 15 yrs ago. My daughter is the artist.

Hello all. I'm refitting the bench seat onto my '57 R26. Up to now I've been using a Pagusa saddle but would like to put the bench seat back on. Currently there is a rubber gasket between the fender and shock tower bracket. It's quite thin but does keep the fender and tower from rubbing. Does anyone...

The front brake on my R 75/5 locked up and threw me to the ground. There was very little damage to the bike as I was only doing about 20mph, but I ended up in the hospital with a broken hip. That was a month ago and I am still a month or more from recovery. This is the third time (going back to 197...

I've waffled between AGM and flooded but do prefer AGM for ease of use. I currently have two /5s and both are fitted with the Odyssey PC680. Seems to work well in both cold climates (western Canada) and coastal (British Columbia).

I received my tire order from Meyers a few weeks ago. It was placed late December at which time I asked Uwe to ship [literally] by slow boat rather than air to save some funds. I wasn't in a big hurry. Both are for a '78 R80. 4.00-18 M/C 64 H TL Heidenau K36 @ 100 euro 3.25-19 M/C 54H TL Heidenau K4...

Personally, I use Motorworks in Yorkshire where possible to avoid the import duty, where I can't, I use Salis (NL), Ulis and Meyer (both D), all are first rate. I would concur but with the caveat that Motoworks has limited supply of pre-71 parts. Meyers has always been good and has reasonable shipp...
