Re: Track day 2018

Hi Steve Thanks for your reply. I'd certainly be happy to be grouped in whatever is considered the most appropriate grouping. I've done 2 track schools & one track day.. all of them over 20 years back! Rusty would certainly cover it! Cadwell is a lovely place though & it'd just be nice to ga...

Track day 2018

Evening all!

I'm thinking of going to Cadwell this year. Two questions though...does anyone ride the track on a 1200 & will a Corsaro on Termignonis get through the noise test?

Any insight would be welcome.

Thanks,

Gary

Congratulations Mike. I hope you enjoy the Veloce as much as I enjoy my 2006 Corsaro!

Re: East Midlands meet up?

Me too folks. Why not catch up over a beer in January, with the venue to be agreed? It'd cheer up a dark month & allow us to discuss plans for the spring.

Cheers

Re: East Midlands meet up?

Hi

I'd throw my hat into the East Mids Corsaro section (I'm based near Hinckley) & would be happy to ride out with any Morini...or just meet up for a winter beer for that matter. I'm a summer rider now though! The winter's for restoring the 500...

Re: Marzocchi rear shock servicing

Hi all Thank you all for your thoughts & shock servicing information. My laser cutting pal may come in useful in concocting that spring compressor! Steve, no Italian language was necessary & the service was outstanding. Ugo is a knowledgeable & nice guy & the prices are pretty reason...

Re: Marzocchi rear shock servicing

Afternoon all Just to confirm that with your assistance I've secured a shock service kit for the Marzocchi's. Suspensionzana are the people to deal with & Ugo Zanardini was the kind gentleman who helped me out. Just make sure you send a pic of your particular shock & measure the rod..mine wa...

Re: Starter clutch shoes - tricky!

Hi

I need my clutch shoes relining & wondered if Villiers need the spec defining, or if they know the correct lining dimensions already? Can you advise please?

Thanks & cheers

Re: Marzocchi rear shock servicing

Hi Robin Thanks for that my friend. I appear to be on the trail of a genuine seal set & my mind is now turning to which spring clamps are the best for the job? The Sealeys are dear, look the part...but like all clamps, seem to divide opinion? Does anyone have experience of good clamps please? Th...

Re: Corsaro ZZ test

Terrific news on the importer! Let's hope they can get a handful of dealers that really get behind the brand & offer decent after sales programme. If MM then back them with some decent marketing, then test rides should see some of the interest generated, converted to purchases. Maybe the club mi...
