    Guzzi MonoCylindrico Registry & Pic Thread

    1972 Nuovo Falcone, one of a batch brought into the UK by NLM from 2000 onwards. Allegedly, these were brand new bikes, but more likely built from boxes of NOS parts left over from the Italian military contract. You could see that many parts were unused, and the motor certainly looked unused...

    Nuovo Falcone flywheel removal, How!!

    A bit late to be replying to this 4 years after the O/P, but just for the record, the flywheel doesn't need to come off for either belt replacement or kickstart spring, although the former is a lot easier than the latter. With the belt completely slackened at the dynamo adjuster, it should slip...

    Cali II carb model - cutting out under load

    Jeez. Please excuse my bad manners guys. I've not been here for a while, forgot where it was, and also my log-in, and have not been receiving notifications of replies to posts... :oops: I guess there's a setting I've not found yet... :? Really sorry. Bike's been off the road for a while (I...

    Cali II carb model - cutting out under load

    Getting a few miles on the '94 carb Cali now, and all is good, apart from a dangerous tendency to cut out under load at high speed, usually mid-overtake. Firstly, I thought maybe there's a rev limiter, because that's what it felt like. Cut out, then seemed to come back on stream again, but, on...

    1994 Cali III

    Thanks Bob. It seems to work just fine, but the one thing the previous owner recommended to me was, "Make sure you check everything now and then, to make sure nothing's fallen off!" Whe I get a chance, I'll strip it down to see how it's constructed, and if rebushing's an option. Looks like...

    1994 Cali III

    I'll be getting one, but I'll wait until I get some heated grips first, to see what diameter they end up. Now, if we could just have some spring weather, that would be good. :unsure: By the way, I noticed there's a load of slop in the gear linkage. Is that normal? The shifter pedal flops about...

    Thanks for all the input. I had this back from Eurocarb, the UK Dellorto people: I don't know which springs are fitted in these - if they are a silver colour they are the strongest, in which case fit the medium ones. If they are black you could try the weak ones but depending on the condition of...

    Well, here they are: Collected it today, and had a cold 22 mile ride. Running well, but that throttle is pretty heavy..... ;)

    Well, if the snow stays away, should be picking it up tomorrow morning, so carbs will be the first thing under investigation, after I've washed the salt off anyway... ;) I'm sure it's stock; only one owner from new, and the only things he's changed are the screen, adding some bling, and a new...

    1994 Cali III

    Useful to know. I'll certainly be sticking with the stock carbs for now, on the 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' theory. It's interesting, and probably not that surprising that people will try out different carburettors, and get good results from them, because choice of carb. for any machine...

    1994 Cali III

    Thanx both; as I've just bought it, and am a cheapskate, I'll be sticking with the stock carbs for now, but once I actually pick it up, I'll check out the carb size and cable arrangement, and let you know how I get on. I've been in touch with Eurocarb, but they can't suggest anything until I...

    Cheers Brian - I'll investigate the carbs and try some softer springs. It's definitely the heaviest throttle I've ever come across, and although I'd wondered about getting one of those wrist rest things, I'd be far happier with a more sensible load. I have touched on the UK site, but (unusually)...
