Re: left hand gearchange conversions
Most later off road Morinis and the K2 have left side gear levers, yet the method/linkages are all different
Have a look at the parts books
Might be more complex if you want to use rear sets?

Before doing anything else
First check/change the oil pressure switch and that the sump oil filter is clean and not restricting the oil feed at higher revs

Re: idiot lights
Hi, the 478 engine can have an oil pressure switch on the front lower clutch/primary drive cover and on the Morini 500 it's linked to a red telltale/idiot light. So first check if there is a pressure switch wired to the red light of your hybrid Morini Early 350s have different wiring to the 500 espe...

Re: Strada top yoke and rear sets.
Hi Norbert, at the Marches Moto Italia day there was an early drum brake Strada with a Paioli top and Marzocchi bottom yokes
Laverda 500 Marzocchi and DKW/HerculesW2000 Ceriani yokes also have the same geometry and there are probably many more possibilities?
Have fun, Ian

It's important to punch rather drill the holes. M...

Re: Kickstarting Problem
Clutch slip on kick starting will be familiar to many BSA unit single owners again not a problem once running Best to check the clutch adjustment, plate thick/trueness, plate order, spring tension etc Not a design fault as in the BSA so it shouldn't be difficult to fix? I'm guessing it is a 5 speed ...
