Anyone have a decent 500 26mm carb they'd be prepared to part with. Thanks.

Corsaro ignition
Hi.
Can anyone help me? I searched for info on any service info for a 1970's Corsaro 125, but with no success.
I'm looking specifically at the ignition - points gap and timing.
I've found various info on valve clearances - .05mm and .10mm.
Any info at all would be great.
Thanks.

Re: Corsaro special/supersport?
OK, I'll be a bit more specific. The bike is in really good condition and only requires a few cosmetics - a new seat cover being the most obvious one. I've done the usual internet search but there is very little about the '70s special model. I am assuming, (although I can't find any info to back up ...

Corsaro special/supersport?
Hi.
I've just acquired an early '70s Corsaro 125.
I believe it's called the special, it runs and is very good original condition.
Does anyone have any info on them? manuals, spares etc.
Cheers

Check your nuts.
Started getting a strange noise and vibration which appeared to be coming from clutch casing area. Got side case off and was having a general look/check around. To my horror I found that the primary gear had a small amount of backlash and the oil pump drive gear could be spun on the shaft. It turned...

Hi John.
Can you elaborate a bit on the plastic yoghurt pot trick for the seals?

Hi.
Any one got a spare set of the oil seal protection sleeves -recommended when the clutch seals are changed on the 500, they'd be willing to part with?

Cured her.
Took off cleaned and inspected for damage all pipe work associated with the collector/separator box thing along with the box itself and reassembled with new clips, 2 new O rings on dipstick and Bobs' your uncle, or should that be Roberto's tuo zio

Re: Spewing oil.
There was some oil on the right hand side of the tyre but it was worse on the left. The disc had quite a thick film on it. Hopefully I'll have Sunday free this week- if I'm not working, so I'll give it a thorough course of looking at and treat it to some new o rings, if it still carries on misbehavi...

Re: Spewing oil.
It is still doing it, albeit not as bad so I'm guessing the drop in level is helping here. Although as I said in my previous post I've changed the oil several times, each time filling to halfway between marks and never experienced it before. Haven't had time to give it all a proper look over as I'm ...

Re: Spewing oil.
PLEASE ACCEPT MY APOLOGY PAT, but to me 'a strong sense of not pushing the dipstick all the way in' is neither a suggestion nor comment, but indicates that you have definite knowledge and therefore implying I failed to replace the dipstick correctly. I may be touchy, but there you go. Unfortunately ...
