Roofus, do you happen to know when the last time the valve clearances were checked?
Cheers

Mark, try Mullen motorcycles in Londonderry for Morini servicing. Morini dealer.

Thanks for that roofus, I'll maybe fire them a message in the coming weeks when we see whats happening with all these lockdowns.
Forgot about them mickey, other end of the country so don't know much about them but could be a good shout

They have claimed (to a friend / contact of mine) that the bike is sold - but that was over a month ago...

Several of the new Morini leak from the front cylinder on the near side; my GP does have a slight weep there, but not enough to affect the oil level significantly (i.e. - visual measurement) between service intervals. As I only wash the GP occasionally - Floyd would claim never - I don't really notice it enough to worry about it, and it never drips any oil on the garage floor. But then, I have an old British bike, so my reference levels are a little different...

Good riding,

CC

Thanks for the info Chris, on both fronts.
It looks like that one might have the similar issue then, hardly a deal breaker, just the charm of it

It’s still for sale

What BMW owners used to refer to as "light misting" ?

Thanks roofus.

72, I always believed Italian bikes don't leak oil, they mark their territory
