Re: Gearbox problem?
Hello - if it does have the Tarozzi rear sets on, the knurled silver ring near the pedal has a tendency to loosen and can then cause issues like this - just worth a check although it sounds like this isn't the case here due to what you say about the lever - thanks - Duncan

Re: winter stripdown
thanks - drilled them out when I got home this evening.
Next question - no where near up to this yet but thinking ahead will I have to remove the swing arm bushes if I am getting it powder coated? - thanks - Duncan

Re: winter stripdown
The engine runs fine so it will be left alone- no room for a shed I'm afraid - I live I in an old mining terrace near Barrow - they were all built cheap and with no bathrooms so at some stage they have all had a bathroom built out into the backyard making it tiny, just a few plants and the bike and ...

Re: winter stripdown
I agree and if that was the only factor I wouldn't bother but the bike is in need of some tlc despite running well- I got the bike 12 years ago as a non runner and it took me a while to get it how I wanted it and running. Since then every year I have to spend time going over body work, frame etc and...

Re: winter stripdown

winter stripdown
My bike got trolled the other day - someone (on a nice shiny 1980s beemer) decided to tell me that it has all kinds of faults because I didn't look after my bike -(he started with you see lots of those advertised but you never see anyone riding them!) he then proceeded to tell me about faults it had...

Re: Connecting A Morgan Carbtune
Earlier bikes do not have the balance pipes or a connector for them, I remember posting the same question a long time ago and getting lots of advice to use the balance pipes which I simply didn't have. Instead Earlier bikes have a bung hole in the carb to head rubber this is normally blocked with a ...
