The US models of the Corsaro were called Hurricane, Cyclone or Jaguar.
In the US, Sbarazzino was called Thunder Chief

Hi,
I am having difficulty removing the forks from my Sbarazzino, I have tried tapping the top plate with a hammer (see photo) but I am afraid to use too much force in case I damage something.
Does anyone have any idea how I should do this task?
many thanks

Perhaps carefully tap the upper yoke upwards. Then you'll be able to - again carefully - tap the rest downwards?!
(That's how I did this with my 3½ when I had to replace the steering bearings).

Thanks 350, I have tried doing what you have said but the only movement is in the one at the rear of the photo. The two at the front just will not budge

Update:
After applying heat with a heat gun I managed to get the yolk off and strip the forks down. The bike is now ready to be prepared for painting
