I can't watch any of his videos, or those of his former associate "The Bearded Mechanic". Please don't judge all of us in the US by him (or our political leaders). :wink:

Re: white carb floats?

In my experience (on Guzzis) the white floats are rubbish - in short order they begin to fill with gas. The black ones with the stainless bridge are the best type.

Re: Front caliper mounting bolts............

When I needed one, I turned it out on the lathe, starting with an M10 bolt.

I've used these on vintage Guzzis without means to mount mirrors.

350 with the same size forks as much bigger bikes, no mystery why they have a good reputation for handling.
The forks are actually considered undersized on those Guzzis. :D

Re: Fork top bolt question...........

Re: MORINI (and others ) transport van/car sale

My bike hauler is 2002 T4/Eurovan w/2.8 VR6 and automatic transmission. I wish it was a diesel with manual!

Unfortunately, T5s won't be legal to import to the US for a few more years.

Re: FRONT BRAKELIGHT SWITCH FOR DRUM BARKE
