Separate names with a comma.
Happy to do it, the only thing the professional has over me is experience (and the tools). I'm happy rebuilding bikes, doing valve checks,...
If it's stopped leaking and doesn't start again under all conditions then it should be good to go, unless it stopped leaking because it's now...
Similar vintage but my Moto Guzzi Le mans has a damper fitted. It's a long raked out bike and always feels very stable so I often wondered if it...
Indeed, but worth checking/setting the TPS. I had the TPS on my 916 move a little as one of the fixing bolts had broken causing it to flex when...
Fair enough, tightened by a Gorilla on bonus then...
My 916 clutch was like that a few years back, very noisy but still worked fine. I did change it though as it was doing my head in but you should...
Doubt there's enough meat left for any insert. Possibly grind away, fill with weld, re-drill and tap but it's a bit specialised and will require...
I had a 250 scrambler many years ago and at 6ft/12 1/2st I fitted fine on it. Thought it was the bollocks back then but would doubtless find it...
Good point, I got the blocks with the yoke and I don't think I'd have got the stem out without them as it's tight in there and the stem's fairly...
It was some years ago but when I fitted Ohlins to my 916, I found that Harris had quite a few Ohlins billet 56mm yokes in stock. Turns out they...
Fair enough, wasn't doing the maths. I was just dispelling the myth that you can't turn the engine backwards.
Or, turn it back a bit more than 90 deg and then turn forwards to the 90 deg position, you're only trying to eliminate any backlash.
Some years back, I was using the 'racing' clutch pack on my 916 - has thinner (and one extra) sintered friction plates and I removed 2 springs as...
What's the overall thickness of the 'pack'? I find that going slightly under the recommended (38.5mm IIRC?) helps with drag, especially if you...
On the old dry clutches it is not uncommon for the large 'star/snowflake' shaped washer to eat into the hub, meaning the hub is not held back as...
Both the 916 and Monster, over many years.
Never seen those thin plates, can't see why they would fit them? Personally I don't bother with any dished plates, just friction/flat plain to...
If it's a single wire (not multicore) then it's not some kind of proximity/sensor, sounds like a plunger switch to me. The older bikes (like...
Not sure if that's a definite marker? I've got Marchesini 10 spoke forged ally wheels and they have 8 holes.
I had some battles with piston rings on my Monster, problem being the JE pistons had chrome rings (at least the oil ring) and it buggered the...
