Yes it's a Ballabio triple tree. But the engraving is nicer than the foil sticker that was on the Scura triple tree. I mean, come on Guzzi. This bike is taking forever. Even a small victory, like getting this insignificant detail done, really cheers me up. My old boss had a saying for when everything was going smoothly. "Like a well-oiled symphony." I hope it is so for you. cdr

In that case you chinless numpty how about releasing some parts diagrams or a service manual, (Being a completely new design they might even be able to get someone to write it without incorporating inaccurate info about previous models! That would be a first!) Im not the least interested in what it looks like or how it performs. All that is secondary to me. I want to see how it f*cking WORKS!

well nuts are plentiful it seems, just finding the correct size. Amazon etc has a bunch, just combing through the measurements and translations. found these at Menards, they seem close in size https://www.menards.com/main/well-nuts/midwest-fastener-reg-4mm-70-x-12mm-rubber-well-nut-1-count/81540/p-1541140115905-c-1556284486413.htm?tid=2724721153734788990&ipos=9 I got one off my spare fender that was in good condition tho scrunched. Looks to be 13-14mm long when new. Just shy of 10mm shaft. Flange dia is 13mm. This one came off the leg not one of the three across the top. They were squished more and more difficult to get out. If the p/n is the same then same same. will stop at my local ACE sometime and check. I know they carry some sizes but...

Winding up a nice Magni Australia 1000 (with good sounding video), what a glorious Moto Guzzi sound, it doesn't get much better than this... https://www.lussoveloce.com/vehicles/moto-guzzi-magni-australia-1000

Here's my 98, it's a nothing video just a start and idle but let's you guys take a look. Given me a lot of headaches, now sorted about much as I can sort it. Still runs hot and you'd better not get caught with it in traffic or it'll cook (you and the bike). Out on the road though it's great fun, it encourages you to rev it, I'm normally running it at 5k and above because that's where it seems happiest and noise is great The Australia 98s had the Daytona RS engine (hence the heat due to the stupid cam only fitted to the RS lumps), a beam frame, similar to Guzzi's (the 92s had a tubular frame more akin to Tontis) and Paioli forks replacing the Forcelle Italia on the 92s

Lillebror MC ( Guzzi dealer, 110m away ) called me today, V100 coming to the store in Desember.. I'l be there, obvious no test ride, BUT. Cheers Tom.
