>Well Guys, like I said I struggle with the webby stuff and spent a half hour emailing/downloading/downsizing/creating an album blahblahblah then the tech tells me I can only send so many bits of data - Doh to quote your man Homer-so ye are gonna get a one off snap of a very special Griso based machine snapped in Stafford Show UK a few weeks back - the builder whose name I didn't get is standing behind the beasty. Its bedtime here so I will have another go tomorrow at sending on a snap or two of my V11 Le Mans rumbling around an old Irish road race venue that now hosts a recreation of the old event, last held in 1967. The Stafford Show is well worth a visit if you happen to be going to the UK in either April or October as it runs twice yearly and all sorts of odd things surface there.

If you notice, the wheel is not exactly centered in the swingarm. The drive unit on the right protrudes further than the brake does on the left. So, the pegs have to move outward to make clearance for swingarm travel. Somewhat like the Lord, the Italians write straight using crooked lines.

Looks not good - but it is how they made them. They are both correct. Rolf

Here's the old Jack-All hack tractor.. Like I said, you can make a Jackal anything you want.

They are not perfect, but like Docc said, loosen everything, plenty paste on, have a beer, more adjusting. Looks pretty any side, to bad you can't see both sides at the same time. Cheers tom. Sent fra min SM-G903F via Tapatalk

So why can't Piaggio do something like this???????????????????

They may be big girls, but they know how to dance. Oh, and can they sing!

That D side footpeg/muffler hanger just looks weird to me. Looking at the Mighty Scura, it's very hard to tell the D side is angled to the right compared to the one in the above picture. Maybe a little, but that's a lottle.

+1 with Rolf, yeah, they are asymmetrical. Yet, as others have said, may a bit much in your case. worth loosening the entire exhaust from the heads, through the crossover's hangers, canister hangers, and attachments to the frame tabs and "grooming" the entire system, front to rear, to relieve stress and obtain a more optimal symmetry. Start at the heads and work in steps in a "star pattern."

Try a pair of these: NGK CR6 individual wires. About $18/per. 5K resistance cap. Other specs are on the eBay listing. https://www.ebay.com/itm/NGK-Racing-Wire-90deg-Solid-Resistor-Cover-100cm-90-100cm-8736-N-CR6/333270758936?epid=171310303&hash=item4d987c3618:g:kyQAAOSwv7BdMMC8

Eyeballing mine, something's bent. The strange thing, the top photo it looks like the right side is bent outward whereas the bottom photo looks like the left side is bent inward. I suppose it's the angle of the photo. I think the right side bracket is bent so that muffler is pointed outward, so I think it's twisted as well as bent in.

You can use fender washers on the bottom of the mounts to trim them so they're more symmetrical. But, that RH top frame bracket looks bent too far outwards.

Transpose the muffler brackets and/or shift the l/h bracket to the outside of the foot peg hanger . Ciao

And so it begins I had the side flow injectors cleaned and flow tested from the throttle bodies I had. Originally 1 wouldn't pulse so I dropped them in the the ultrasonic bath and the dud one seemed to come good. However it also seemed to not pulse for the first few applications of voltage so I figured it must still be dirty. I rigged up a 9 volt battery to pulse the injector open and put it back in the ultrasonic bath this time with a mixture of injector cleaner and petrol. This was a well dodgy thing to do and I did it outside with an extinguisher on hand. Anyhow it didnt seem to work. The reason for all this messing about was it was hard to find anyone to clean the side flow injectors, top feed easy but the side flows was problematic. Anyway I finally found a company and initially one wouldnt pulse but after cleaning on their special machine it came up good. Just wanted to eliminate as many variables as I can starting a new engine without the std fuel map. Ciao

There’s a bit of asymmetry for shaft drive clearance - but that rhs tab connecting your muffler to peg seems excessive. 🧐
