Just got it firing!
So my v7 developed a terrible squeal when I pulled the clutch lever in and would not work as expected. I took it to Munroe Motors in SF and they said they "found oil and clutch dust in the bell housing" and it was going to cost $2,500 to fix it. They also told me they could not do the work until November and couldn't get the parts until August. Do you know why these guys would want to dodge my business so hard? Doesn't make sense to me.
So I decided to do the work myself. I have the clutch plate removed and thought I would take some pictures to show everyone. I am planning on replacing the plate and entire clutch rod assembly. See my parts list below.
1 x flywheel and ring gear holding tool for big twins (12911801K) = $51.22
1 x clutch throwout bearing Most 4, 5 and 6 speed transmissions (12087001) = $14.19
1 x clutch push rod, 5 speed transmission (14085700) = $17.37
1 x clutch bearing inner body Many Guzzi models (14086000) = $18.90
1 x clutch outer body, Many Guzzi big and small twin models (14086100) = $24.00
1 x Clutch plate V7 Classic, V7 Stone, V7 Cafe, Breva 750, V65s, (32084410) = $94.89
1 x Clutch alignment and installation tool, fits 2mm and 4mm spline (MG161) = $68.00
1 x clutch outer body plunger throwout oring Most all Guzzis (90706170) = $0.78
How does that plate look?
Do you think I should replace the pressure cup, too?
