Mark,
I am about to insatll an R75/6 engine and transmission in an R50. I plan to use the modern electrical system in the R50 headlight shell. I have both driveshafts and both swing arms. Will this work and what are the problems associated with it? Neither bike is what I would consider restorable. Thank you, Keith Cary

I bet this subject is beyond the scope of this restoration tips forum. I will email you some URLs of sites that describe /2 conversions. I would post the sites here but it seems this forum does not display URLs that are entered in the messages.
