    End float

    Just in the process of checking over my 5 speed box, replacing the return spring and shimming the selector drum and like some thoughts on layshaft float. Book says to shim shaft from 167.1 to 0.2 but once fitted I still think the end float is excessive. Watched a couple of German guys assembling...

    Found it.

    For a long time my 1200S has had a plasticky sounding rattle/knocking noise coming from the front whenever I ride slowly over sharp road imperfections. I thought it was coming from the headlight but after much trial and error I discovered it was from the front guard. Have tried a number of ways...

    C3 ?

    The machined bore for the carrier support bearing in the swing arm of my 850T is 0.07 to 0,15mm under size! As you can imagine the bearing was very tight to turn and the universal yoke nose is also 0.04 under. I will true bore and machine the other end of the universal to repair but was thinking...

    Should I replace ?

    Electrics are not my strong point and as I am in the process of restoring a T850 i was wondering if anyone has an opinion on what i should update or replace as far as relays, rectifier, regulator etc. Everything was working ok when I pulled if down apart from having to press the starter button a...

    RPM sensor oil leak.

    I have an oil leak from around the RPM sensor in the crank case, just in front and above the L.H. cylinder base. I am sure I have read somewhere about this problem but I cant find it in a search. Anyone know if there is a gasket or O,Ring used to seal sensor ? Cheers.

    Is the T3 extinct ?

    The T3 was one of Moto Guzzi best sellers so the question is, have they all been turned into cafe racers ? Have been trying to find just a nice clean example for awhile now with no luck so please tell me you still see standard T3's out there.

    T3 Seat

    How hard is it to fit a T3 type seat onto a T3 california ?

    What seat ?

    I find my 1200 Sport seat a bit soft and the shape moves me towards the tank as I ride. Thinking about a Norge/Breva seat as it looks flatter where the rider sits and wondering has anyone tried both to compare ?

    Round Head.

    So like most others I feel the need to have a second Guzzi in the garage and that it should be a pre-1980,s round head. Now unless I win Lotto a V7 Sport or Le Mans 1 is off the books so I guessing I would be looking at an Eldo, T850, T3 1000SP etc. Not to worried about originality, I am more...

    Check your nuts.

    The side stand on my 12S has been tight lately to flip up without a little help from my foot so I took the sump cowl off to lube the pivot shoulder bolt and noticed it was halfway out. Anyway after replacing it making sure it was tight I also checked the parts manual and noticed it should also...
