Re: Tarozzi brake arm repair/replace

In the 500 group Jonny Pollard mooted getting some of these lazer cut in alloy. They are, like the Artesiani Morini rearsets back in the 80s made of something like digestive biscuit. If you look at his posting, I did suggest a few places that lazer-cut alloy motorbike parts. The Artesiani rearsets ...

Re: atomiser/emulsion tube.

I realise you are seeking a new and unused atomiser so this might not suit; nonetheless there are 7 used VHBZ25 carbs in stock at mdina currently and perhaps at least one of these might be in very good condition. https://www.mdinaitalia.co.uk/M340124U.html

Why do you want/need a brand new one?

Re: Instrument bezels and glass

Mike, Doug at mdina does list a rubber seal and has stock currently https://www.mdinaitalia.co.uk/instrument-bezel-rubber.html however you'll probably want to check with him whether this is actually suitable for the 88mm veglia rather than the 90mm smiths bezels. What about considering using cord se...

Re: 175 H Supermono

I've just discovered this post (owning a 125 T (the last of the 125 H range)) led me to it :)

Incredible work and the rest of Paolo's videos on vimeo are well worth watching.

Re: Farewell

I agree that your contributions and support remain most welcome. I still remember the photos of your collection of Moto Morinis from a few years ago which inspired me to get to know you and then visit you in June 2022. Your hospitality (and your local food and wines) were well worth the trip to the ...

Re: Club Strada in December Classic Bike

Tom,
I agree, the author of the article mentioned he'd like to obtain a 3 1/2. Let's hope he does manage to do so and also join the club. Similarly, I hope other readers will be inspired - 3 1/2's are fun bikes to ride and maintain.

428 rear sprockets available (JTR485.46)

I've just ordered and received a JT rear sprocket, the JTR485.46, which looks like a pretty good match for the the very worn one that's on my 250 2C I recently acquired. These new sprockets are generally available from various sources online. I've currently got the bike apart while I clean up the fr...

I've received my 2024 calendar and it's ready to be used once the New Year starts. Thank you to everyone involved including Dave for selecting the photos and Chris for delivering my copy while he was out for a ride.
