I reviewed your video before I installed my Roper plate and couldn't tell if you used two flange gaskets (01 00 36 50), - one on both sides of the Roper plate. Also, when I installed my plate last week, I noticed that the screws that held the flange to the crankcase had a coating on them that I could peel off. When I looked further, 8 of these cap screws thread into crankcase holes that are not blind but open to the outside. In other words, if these Allen screws are not sealed, you could have oil running up the threads to the outside of the engine on both sides. I used Permatex's Indian heal shellac on mine. Frank

If you want to hear the best version of Romeo and Juliet ever with Chris White on the sax absolutely nailing the solo with Eric Clapton playing as well check this out. Amazing! Ciao

Hey up Nobleswood, yes they are the original caps I had. I actually sourced the new kit thru uk ebay, the suppliers were an Italian company: Sestamarcia Racing Parts. I think they’re based in Rimini. Despite having the initial problems, they were very helpful in rectifying the issue. Good communication, and in English, so I don’t see why you couldn’t contact them directly. I’ve put about 50 miles on the new kit so far, yesterday was purrfect. The lack of dive is most noticeable and they feel tight, yet ‘supple’ somehow. The brakes feel ace too now for some reason!

I'm a massive MK fan, have been since the late 70's when Dire Straits Sultans of Swing went to #1 here in Australia before anywhere else in the world. Love his post DS stuff even more. Ciao

Seems Moto Guzzi keeps a lot of secrets. Paint formulae, production numbers, engineering changes . . .

A member has inquired about donating to Beard for guzzidiag, but I am not seeing the > donate< button on his page: https://www.von-der-salierburg.de/download/GuzziDiag/ I could post his email for PayPal purposes, but wanted to check in for the best procedure (?)

Fall is here again and we'll enjoy colours and nice fresh wind ☺
