Re: Electric Start
...a new battery - Yuasa YT12B-BS which is good enough ? I would have thought a 12 Ampere hour battery would be capable, we have a 14 Ampere hour battery in ours. While Ampere hours (capacity) is important, what is perhaps more important is CCA or Cold Cranking Amps (electrical flow rate) so maybe ...

Re: Electric Start
How many ohms across the starter relay?
And is the circuit that pulls the relay in, pulling it in 100%?

Re: 1200 REAR Brake Master Cylinder Brembo
Yes I had spotted that. I would have asked them direct except their "support" facility on the website doesn't work, not for motorcycles anyway.

Re: 1200 REAR Brake Master Cylinder Brembo
The rear master cylinder is stamped 8F07X11 anyone else out there got that stamped on their 1200 (or 650?) rear brake master cylinder?

Re: 1200 REAR Brake Master Cylinder Brembo
These guys were mega helpful when I needed rebuild kits for various machines https://powerhouse.uk/motorcycle-brake-caliper-seal-kits/ Thanks, I gave them a try and very helpful but unlucky they don't stock Brembo. I'm going to try info@addictionmotorsport.co.uk (a random choice) who seem to stock ...

1200 REAR Brake Master Cylinder Brembo
Hi All, the rear brake master cylinder on the 1200 looks like it needs a rebuild kit. The rear brake keeps filling with air soon after every time I bleed it. Then this last time it doesn't want to pump hardly any fluid at all when I tried to bleed it. This is a 1200 Milano but it looks kinda like th...

Re: Cylinder compression test
As John says, a compression test is usually done by first running the engine for a while. I was always taught to then quickly drain the float bowls and make sure the incoming airway wasn't obstructed. In other words wind the throttle wide open then do the test :D Just kicking it over with the meter ...

Re: Milano rear mudguard thingy
Ditto, same problem here. Our fix was a new black moulding made from fibre composites, directions for how to do it this way are in a previous issue of A Tutto Gas. IMHO both the fixes (metal and fibre composite) look good on the bike and have clocked up significantly more mileage than the originals ...

Re: Quick shock rebuild question
Sometimes also the thread on the plug (or the body) doesn't go quite to the end and when tightening it hits the end of the thread and not the tightening face and everything goes wonky.

Re: Quick shock rebuild question
Possibly the face on the body that the plug is tightening up against is not square to the axis of the bore. Or the face on the plug is not square to the axis. When you tighten the last bit, either would put the axis of the damper rod out of alignment with the axis of the bore in the body.

Re: Fork Seals
As I wait (clearly not very patiently) for the manual to download, fork oil weight and capacity? 10w and 225ml (came out) The manual says really light oil, which translates to something like 5W which is fine if your damper rod internal seals are nice and new. However generally they are not, in whic...

Re: Fork Seals
Same size seal as used by Moto Guzzi in the forks of the V7 Sport, 850-T, T3, T4 Convert, etc. 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 Isn't it scary to think that he...

Re: Fork Seals
Myself I use a single lip version for the bottom one and a double lip for the top one. Having said that I used to use all four single lip and that was ok too as long as the dust caps (or gaiters) are in good condition.
