I make a reference line on the case, same idea with foot controls and an arrow scored inside oil filter cover. No brain required!

Might be worth a trawl through Gutsibits brakes pages.

Good to hear you are making progress. My K1 and the other two are confined to barracks as it is the rainy season Fortunately I live on a hill.

Blessed as I am with an under tank battery on a Coguaro, I am gradually losing cold cranking power. The battery has been in situ since 2020. The existing lump is a Motobatt MB18U. My other bikes have Xtreme XR 600 which work well. The latter are about 3mm taller, Motobatt is 162mm and the Xtreme is ...

For a few years the Path Lab chapter have attended Motorcycle Live at the NEC. We cannot get enough of blaring noise and largely uninteresting and expensive motorcycles.
Each year I say Moto Morini ought to be here. I have given up.There’s always the Bantam…..

I mark the exhaust nuts and head with a fine line so it is quick to check for movement.

If you turn the wavy plate so the pin aligns with a hole on the case it can be extracted. Pulling off this plate allows a pair of ballbearings to fall out. I caught them.

All my parts of old switch- fell on floor again upon prising off the bevelled collar. 0/10

Been there, the wrong side of a dozen sets of lights. I’d probably get a new one from Venhill in the first instance. They do sell the component parts if you fancy a bash at making your own. You do need to make a birdcage at the cable end. I made something suitable by drilling down a pair of angle st...

Hello and welcome to Morini ownership.

I should have a damaged 6 pole switch I think which I will check out tomorrow and let you know if the internals reveal anything.

We are all guilty. Refilling oil whilst omitting to refit a drain plug, starting a BMW without refitting the dipstick, knocking a main bearing clean through the case etc.
At least you noticed in time.

That info about Loctite is interesting.

One a different bike, with very accessible cylinders, I used a Spark Plug repair kit from UniThread to fit a wire insert. I used Loctite 266 and left it a few days. You have to break the insert tang off which I did in situ but captured it with a strong magnet on the tool at that moment. I have had i...

Nice to see a number plate still in place. I’d like another bike myself but one at least would have to go and I cannot decide- plus a) selling a bike for £ not so easy. b)not getting any younger( the elderly gentleman etc) b1) so don’t procrastinate b2) why bother b3) roads are sha**ed b4) can I pas...

I am keeping the bike and am not looking to sell the spare. The one on the bike is beginning to wear. Happy hunting.
