Just rejoined this week after buying a '72 R60/5. Looking around on the web in the hope of finding a guide that suggests all the things one should check and or service on these wonderful machines to make certain all is as it should be. There is a lot of very good, detailed how to articles, just have not found what I am looking for in one place. Any pointers ?
Thanks
I think this is the article you are looking for from Skibum a.k.a. Mike Buhler.

Actually that was not me. That was Snowbum aka Robert Fleischer. He put up a ton of excellent info that is still available on his website. Sadly he passed away in 2024.
On all of the other forums I hang out on my username is skibum69 after 20 years of being a skibum.Â
If you want to know about Newfoundland I'm the one to call.Â
