clutch casing covers old and new

[twisty]

noticed that the later clutch alloy casing cover has a sound deadening plate (large disc) fitted inside , which the earlier models didn't have. Must have been an attempt to cut down on mechanical noise. Looks a bit like a metal saucer slightly concave.

Another thing i didn't realise was that the crankcases are predrilled and tapped to accept two sizes of starter motor. The larger size (about 1/2 inch longer in length) for the corsaro and the smaller size for the scrambler and i assume the avio etc.

Obviously the larger starter is due to the increased compression on the corsaro or veloce.

Another bit of useless information

Not useless at all! It can become handy at the right time!

i bought the new casing cover for my `07 corsaro, but I couldn`t detect a difference in the noise. the waterpump is working louder.
