    Airone help

    Hi Mike. Hope the knee is on the mend nicely. I thought I might have to hold the hub but I was unsure as to whether the manicotto has a left hand thread same as the outer one. Can you remember? Regards Clive

    Airone help

    Hi. I am the very proud owner of an early 50s' Airone sport. After a few teething problems after purchase I got it well sorted and it ran superb - so much so in fact I manage to wear a brand new rear tyre out this summer. I've noticed that it has developed a small amount of lateral movement...

    Airone gear selection

    Well bugger me, you're quite correct John - it does indeed lead to a smooth positive shift. I just need to remember to use the technique whilst riding now. Having a V7II with an idiot proof left - one down the rest up, shift and the Airone with a right - one up and the rest down, can cause a...

    Airone gear selection

    Hi John. I'll give it a try , as I said 60-70% of the shifts are great, really smooth, but the rest can be a bit tricky so it may well be my technique is not helping. All the bikes I've previously owned/ridden have been post '65 which require little more than clutch in, shift, clutch out. I'm...

    Airone gear selection

    Fitted the new clutch, along with a new pushrod and springs no problem. The trouble is I'm still having a bit of trouble with gear selection - I was hoping a new clutch etc would help this as the old one was dragging a bit even after a good clean. Sometimes the gear selection in perfect...

    Airone flywheel key.

    Hi Mike. I've been messing with it again and I think I've got it sorted. I love tinkering with mechanical things. It all started years ago. I have three brothers and we are all into motorcycles having grown up with them. My father bought a Malaguti motorik junior bike for myself and my younger...

    Airone flywheel key.

    Hi. Whilst changing the clutch on my airone like a fool, for reasons unknown other than curiosity, I removed the primary gear from the crank. Unfortunately I didn't look at the flywheel key position before I took it out to remove the gear. By position I mean which way the chamfers on the key...

    Airone advice

    Hi everyone. Problem solved. Got the casing off with no drama. Set the timing gear up with the marks on the crank and cam drive gears, although I could find no discernible markings on the mag gear, at TDC on comp. Removed the mag drive gear - bit of a pain, then the mag. Mag had good magnetic...

    Airone advice

    Hi Mike. It does run but it's a pain to start. Also the more I research it the more I come to recognise it's a bit of a `bitsa'. I think the frame is a 49 but the tank looks like it's from a later model, being a bit more `bulbous' than the one on you're lovely bike. Getting back to the hard to...

    Airone advice

    Hi. I'll be picking up a 1949 Airone sport shortly and i'd like a little advice. I've never owned a vintage bike before so I've a few questions. Hopefully some one with experience of these bikes will be able to help. 1. How do you drain the oil? I've looked at the italian workshop manual and...

    V7 Registry & Picture thread -- ADD YOUR BIKE

    Hi. Just picked up my 2015 V7II. This is my third Guzzi and I picked it up today. Only done 50 mile - a bit cold for me to ride much further, but I must say I love it already. There is really something about Guzzis' that make them intoxicating. I'm hoping all is well with the bike.
