I use a tool my Dad made for the job ages ago. An ice pick, which he heated and bent the tip in a small 90deg bend, about 1/4". Proving once again... Dad's are great!, and manage to help out long after they're gone.

The five speed RAM clutch is the same as the Six speed was except you re use your stock Scura 6 speed input hub, not the one in the kit ( Scura ones are no longer available and Hens teeth if you don't have ) and you machine your pushrod so both ends have an identical step in them ( one end is already stepped). I installed the 5 speed RAM from MG in my Scura a few months ago, no problems.

Hey everyone..found a sensor on evil bay...Aprilia Tuono V4R 2013 has the same...19 bucks Thank you all

I have a tool like that. Took out the gaskets in 5 seconds each. DONE.

My thought was that since I am switching headers it might be a good idea to replace the gaskets. And for some reason, I already had a pair of gaskets on hand.

I called MPH to ask them if I could get the Road 6 instead of the Road 5, so the pitch is working pretty well on credulous guys like me

Congestion on the road from Mt Aspiring

I'd check that myself, 1.8mm of shims seems too much to me. Ciao

..and your notes (which I used, referenced somewhere else on this forum...TY) are exactly right! Reinstalled with new O-ring, reused shims, and fired her up uneventfully. Need to get the oil viscosity down before I'll render a final verdict.

Don't stop now! It just snowed a fourth time here in January. We're counting on you guys to keep our fires kindled! Pay you back in June . . .

Wow talk about reaching Plus I don't ride german

Welldone, Sir! My notes say "#112 Viton" for that O-ring . . .

Had noticed accumulated grime about the timing sensor, so........... Three 0.6mm shims and an O-ring which had acquired and retained a square profile. Note to self: If you don't see an O-ring or land once the sensor is removed, ensure you have all the shims off the motor.

Seems like I used a cotter pin remover.. https://www.amazon.com/Mayhew-13228-Pick-Cotter-Puller/dp/B074KQY27K/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=cotter+pin+removal+tool&qid=1643414281&sr=8-10 Mine happens to say Snap On on it, but this one appears to be similar.

TT 100, K81, and no worrys, like KINDOY2 says. Of topic yes, l'm out. Cheers Tom. Sent fra min SM-A525F via Tapatalk

I put the Fobo brand tire pressure bluetooth whizmo’s on my Duc, which talks either to your smart phone or a small monitor you can put on your bars, and after some annoying learning curve items got ironed out a couple yrs ago, I’m now quite fond of the setup, and would like to do it on the Guzzi’s. Part of me says more gear/tech/clutter needed, but I came to like the tire pressure monitors and now miss it on the bikes that dont have it. There’s that nagging feeling sometimes about maybe having a low tire… or is it just a hot tire on hot pavement, or does my suspension just feel a bit different today, or am i hallucinating, or about to dent my rim? Maybe it’s just me, but i get that way sometimes on most things with tires… mountain bikes, cars, dirt bikes, street bikes, where you’re wondering if maybe you have a flat. A quick look at my tire pressure readout, or even just a confirmation that the “alert” hasn’t shown on the Lock Screen on my phone means I’ve got psi where it belongs. The stiff walled ADV tires especially don’t show low pressure nearly as obviously as softer sidewall tires, so on more than one occasion i started off ok with verified good pressure, later got that feeling about maybe something being amiss, glanced down quick and everything looks ok, only to then get to next stop and realize I’ve got a flat, or worse that it’s flat and that last rough pavement i hit dented my rim.

Here's one I took today just coming back to Bungendore from Canberra. This is looking east, towards Canberra. The hills in the background are the Brindabella ranges.

Bugger, I forget the usual pasting of a URL doesn't work.....

Here you go, one of my favourite Aussie road images. Always enjoy seeing this through the screen just before popping up for the braking marker. Turn 1 Phillip Island Bass Straight in the distance. Ciao

Tighter than a camel’s ass in a sandstorm. Joking aside, got no time to miss Greenie today. 11 hours work on «Temple of the Guzzi». Timber framing and truss is finished, so a good day. Now, IPA-time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
