  1. Hi all,

    I just picked a nice M27 but can't seem to find the frame number. I checked the usual places, headstock and above the footpeg.

    Has anyone come across this before.?

    The bike was apparently bought new in 1967 in Spain then shipped to Canada shortly there after by the same person. He then got injured and the. Bike sat in storage for the next 45 years.

  2. Hi all,

    Does anyone know if you can use the 30mm bearing instead of the 20mm one with the 2 alloy spacers?

    I was supplied 30mm one with a new Mahle piston and wanted to check it was OK to use before I fit it.

    Thanks.

  3. Hey all,

    I have just acquired a early 80's Merlin and need some engine parts. Namely a piston kit and possible con rod kit.

    - anyone know of a supplier?

    - should these bikes have a chrome bore? It is a very early bike. #7 off the production line I believe.

  4. My 2015 had an oil leak out of the water pump seal, oil side. Oil was coming out of the small hole at pump. It was brand new out of the box. Might pay to check that.

  5. I would hope for the 300 engine in the Repsol edition. Most 4RT owners and dealers I have spoken to would like to see the same.

    Time will tell.

    I find it interesting that in 2016 the USA only had the standard and 300RR versions available. ??
