It will be like starting with a virtually new bike. It will need the usual CARC bike stuff, swingarm bearings and shock linkages greased, check the drain hoses from the airbox are intact and plugged, sump spacer gasket replacing, (Optional but recommended.) and a full service and tune by someone who knows what they are doing. Apart from that. Press the button and watch the horizon come towards you. Don't buy 'Tuning' shit from charlatans and you'll be fine

Ideally I’d like to order these and our other stuff by the end of next week but I can add a couple days. Ill need a final quantity by say Sunday 11th……. Hopefully that’s enough time for everyone. OK????

Sounds about right. New clutch in, connect clutch wire, ææh NO clutch. Ended up with a 3,1mm long SS rod inside the metal cylinder that pushes the rod. Yes larger clutch plates, not 100% original. But yes bike in 2gear, small plier in u joint, clutch handle in, YES. Cheers Tom. Sent fra min SM-S906B via Tapatalk

Hey DOCC, I like the Oberon. Lifetime warranty, super fancy seal design and many shiny colors. About $150USD As I recall AF1 wanted $25 for a new Aprilia cylinder but said it would take four months to get I would be honored to have my contribution added to our august assembly. Truly, I am humbled

Riding gets the soul soaring a bit like like music can Years ago I had over a week with mates bonding riding my ScuraR from the Atlantic (Biarritz) zigzagging from France to Spain up & down over the Pyrenees mountains to the Mediterranean There’s something quite special & soul atmospheric when riding higher ground - a life forming experience I still carry with me Any of you fella’s had a ride like that?

Thats about 20% what the rest of the world want for them. I think AF1's pricing might be a little suspect. Phil

Well done, that man. Please let us know what you find out about the pushrod.You know, longer, shorter, whatever...

Yeah, I took a while too. I grew up with the Stevie Nicks era, and sometime much, much later I found out that they were, before that, one of those british blues bands that were perhaps not better than USA blues, but different, and equally good.

Thanks for the tip!! Currently in Paris (France), checking out all the Motorcycle stores and replenishing my riding gear...

This so reminds of getting all giddy over a V7 loop-frame. Then wanting another gear in the box. Maybe another 50cc. How about disc brakes? A Tonti frame. Maybe another 100cc, even up to a thousand ? Some bigger valves, a better cam . . . bigger carbs? Better wheel sizes . . . How about a Spine Frame? Fuel injection . . . different drive ratios with 6speeder to settle the engine/shaft angles . . . but still two valves, air cooled . . . It always just brings me back home . . .
