Those are much more effective than the earlier type, as you should discover.

Mine had 175 ohms and ran OK but was not the easiest starter. Since a rewind in 2008 it has been OK.
I ought to measure the resistance from time to time U suppose.
Still you have a spark. Will it bump start? Did you fling out the contents of the float bowls? Any evidence of water?

That is not my experience with my Sport nor my BMW airheads. If it can crank a pair of 500cc cylinders in Winter it ought to be good enough for a Morini. Is it fully charging?

I have fortunately acquired a replacement drive but will try and repair the worn one.

If it won’t pull top with a 40t rear it’s never going to pull a 38t. Get those carbs rebuilt check carefully the jets and atomiser specs and verify fuel taps are free flowing. Check needles don't look too corroded or worn and no muck in the floatbowls. Eurocarb sell rebuild kits. Watch Paul Compton’...

Just wanted to add my thanks for organising the event. I thought the evening meal was very good too. Bread and butter pudding seemed the right choice back when the weather was less like Cordoba.( OK not that hot but I don't wear bike gear when there) The shower room was by Sunday an opportunity not ...

I have now joined the worn tacho club. Very interested in the repair idea. Have pm’d about the square bar as have nothing here.

I used RAL1036 for my gold rear wheel. If they had removed all traces of blast material it would be a good job.Do not mention disc mounting bolt holes.
My sprocket carrier bearing had broken up too.

I also use a syringe to refill the starter gearbox on my 350. I have a screw in plug and badly fitting rubber push in plug. In the Blue book p28 it describes checking the oil level with the motor still in the side cover. I have always done it after removing the motor from the case, remove both plugs...

Keep up John! Reading the latest MOT guidance the year of manufacture limit for the motorcycle ( converted to LED) has been removed. The light pattern must pass of course.

I have had instrument bulb holders drop out when hitting a pothole so not unusual. Pity about that light pattern. My concave Cibie is fine, or it was last time I rode a distance in the dark. Another bike has twin 35W bulbs. Seems a bit pathetic too . I did not update to LED on that bike because it’s...

This is interesting so I have sent you a pm.

I find with a bit of care you can get very close to throttle slides lifting together by ear and feel. The main thing is sufficient slack at the carb top adjusters then gradually reduce it (but not so you can here the motor rev.) I do use a carb balancer on my bikes but it is never far out. I have ba...

Try MdinaItalia or Guzzibits do suitable taps TAA65401A or B ( Left/Right)

That will of course be 85 mph on a private road. Accuracy at 20 mph will be increasingly important I think. Oh well......
