Ossa Mar Cylinder Head Nuts

Featured Replies

I was wondering if anyone could tell me the torque setting for the cylinder head nuts on my 1975/6 MAR.

Also is the paint on the hubs satin or gloss black?

And.....does anyone know if the rear shock decal (BETOR) is available anywhere?

Many thanks in advance, Nigel.

15ft/lbs at 3 stages, maybe 5/6 10 then the 15 is the figure I have for the MAR OSSA.

Hub paint ? Would be interested myself in the paint type.

I recall the Phantoms of that year had flat black hubs.

I had a MAR NOS hub floating around for yeas- it was either flat or satin black.

I think I sold it a few years ago-but it was long enough ago I don't actually remember!

Many thanks trialsrfun and lotus54. I have some heat resistant black that should be gloss but it always turns out satin so I`ll go for that.

And for the earlier post, can the spindle that the brake lever and chain tensioner are on be removed with the engine in situ.....yes it can!!! I`ve just done it but I did have to remove the swing arm.

Cheers, Nigel.

I'll look through my pics I took when got the bike to make sure.

Here is one of a new 1974 Phantom- looks like a low gloss rear hub.

I sure thought the later bikes were flat or satin.
