R27 Breather

How does one service/clean the crankcase breather on an R27? I see no reference to it in either the Owner's Manual or the factory shop manual that I have. Thanks for any advice....

Push Start

Quick question. Is it possible to push start an /2 and if it is what is the correct way to do it. My question is due to the fact that if I flood my engine I would like to have another way to start my bike that doesn't envolve getting another cup of coffee and waiting 10 minutes to try again.

Thanks

R69 Generator Brushes

I'm going to install new generator brushes on my R69 this week.

Is this as basic and straightforward as it would seem, or is there anything unusual about doing this that I should know about?

Thanks.

Vintage bike show in Chandler, AZ (near Phoenix)

There is a classic motorcycle show Saturday, Nov. 21, at Victory BMW in Chandler, Arizona. I hope there will be lots of /2s there.

I will be riding up from Tucson with two /2s, one being ridden by friend.
