That is awesome! Thank you, @biesel ! The part is currently 44 Euro with US shipping 82 Euro, so right at $135US . . .

From this image (thanks @audiomick ), if the center hole is ~14mm, I get the thickness at about 1.5-2 mm . . . Rough measure considering the angle of the view . . . It occurred to me that the depth of the blind hole could be measured with a depth gauge and the "spacer" thickness selected to ensure the bolt length does not bottom into the hole without torquing the threads properly. Add the guessing game of how much that "toothed lockwasher" might compress . . .

Of the original 9 Triumphs, only 37 are still out there . . .

The bolt would likely bottom in the blind hole without a spacer standing it off. A pair of normal flat washers "might " do it, but getting the 70-75 Nm is apparently important to expect that little leg to hold up our heavy girl . . . Just a reminder for everyone to check that torque and make sure the smaller (red circled) fastener hasn't wiggled itself loose. When that one fails, it takes a bit of the sump spacer with it.

Any insights on the washers (especially the "special" washer)?

Striking distance! But "private club?"

Order today = June delivery?

Yes, that bolt is very specific. Along with one of the two "washers." I am hoping someone has the whole Rube Goldberg sidestand assembly in a pile and could measure the parts . . .

Alright, @arveno: 3 - "screw" GU30432801 4 - "Special washer" GU95021114 8 - "Washer" GU95100120 Neither the Parts catalog nor the Workshop Manual shows any dimensions. [ Also, note that it torques to 70-75 Nm ! ]

The one circled in red or the bigger one at the top left of the image?

I-40 corridor? That would be round Crossville. Seems like an odd, unlikely location (?) Fifty miles southwest of Knoxville is I-75 corridor (headed toward Atlanta), around Athens. South'n Spine Raid territory!

Welldone, Phil, as usual! I have long thought my vent and overflow tubes are weeping fuel into the exit. Seems like such a monumental task to address, I just built a catch can instead.

so love this guy . . . Stabet Mater and such . . . This performance from just weeks ago:

If'n yer gonna dream, . . . (I) Dream of Jeannie . . .

Oh, no! I waited too long to get Mike Rich valves and headwork?!?

Super, Bill! Thanks for sharing the experience! As usual, I always have a few select, favorite images . . .

Sure docc's quick, but can be wrong . . . Now the matter of certain suppliers listing the kit as "PS 13" which implies 13mm, not the correct 12mm? So, I used the Brembo part number, 110436292, and see the best US price from OPP Racing ($18US): https://www.oppracing.com/product_display/202872-brembo-oe-spare-part-master-cylinder-brake-12mm-seal-set-for-front-master-110436292/

Here is the correct kit from Stein-Dinse: https://www.stein-dinse.com/en/front-brake-master-cylinder-repair-kit-brembo-ps-13/item-2-1098059-GU28659378-.html And from Wendel (but almost triple the cost!): https://wendelmotorraeder.de/pump-revision-kit_gu28659378-p-1005001.html Best Euro price at TLM: https://tlm.nl/moto-guzzi-triumph/286593780000-revisieset-rempomp-ps13-lm1000-c1100

Man, I do appreciate that! I see my error caused @audiomick's links to be in error from my mistake. Sorry, y'all!

Yes, indeed. Too hasty posting the link on my part. I'll edit in a correction..... Thanks, again, @Speedfrog'

Such good advice to freshen the clutch fluid yearly. I reviewed my service records and see that I have rebuilt the clutch master cylinder every 100.000 km. In the first 62,000 miles, I changed the fluid every year (8-14 months), six times. Except for once that I let it go three years. In the second interval (68,000 miles), the clutch fluid was changed eight times averaging every other year, twice going to the three year mark. Bad docc. Bad. Just a reminder, though, that I row my gearbox and flash my clutch like a jackrabbit on hot lava . . . YMMV!

I thought all drag racing had dropped back to the 1/8 mile. My 300hp V-8 "back in the day" was a contender on the street. Probably mid-14s/ 90-ish on the quarter mile. What was your trap time @fotoguzzi?

Yes. They are quite prone to cracking at the mounting points, much like the side covers and front fender . . .
