Question, my starter motor failed just before I was going to store/winterize my 1975 R60/6 for the season. Can I put this bike in gear and turn over the pistons to lubricate them for winterizing?

Yes

Yes you can! Just put it on the stand with the rear wheel off the ground. Pull the plugs put it in gear and turn the rear wheel.
