Hi there,

It is not a real tour, but would be the trip home with a bought swallow, so I thought the topic of travel planning is most likely.

I'm about to finally get a swallow and then pick it up in Görlitz. I live in Berlin and my plan is to take the Regio there and back with the Schwalbe. Distance around 230km should be possible in 4-5 hours without major breaks.

I have not found a route planner that offers the function "only country road" and the route I looked for on Google Maps runs via the B115 and B96. What do you think of these roads to drive at 60 km / h (for a full 5 hours). Do you know any alternatives? do you know if parts of this road are motorways? Which route would you drive to find the right balance between safety and time expenditure?

Good morning,

I need a brilliant idea.

My M53 has been dry for a long time, last summer the kickstarter shaft leaked. And not a little. It was pretty neat, what was out there. So quickly removed the cover, fumbled out the oil seal and put in a new oil seal. Then put the cover back on, the kickstarter shaft also fit pretty tightly into the hollow shaft. New oil on it and now it has been in the same place for some time, and what should I say? There is a puddle of fresh gear oil under the moped, and there are drops hanging on the kick starter lever ........

What else can I do?? There is NO sealing ring on the actual kick starter shaft, nor is there a groove for it. The engine is built in 78.

Oil is filled up to the edge of the housing, so there isn't really too much on it.
