INTRO


Cold Desert Rat

Recommended Posts

Greetings,

The site has been tremendously useful to me. I figured it was high time I joined.

I bought the scura from eurosports LV. My V7 needed a big sister.

Thanks to all the unnamed heroes who have helped me without knowing it. 

Motorcyclists are the best folks in the world and Guzzista are the best of those.

"Cold Desert Rat" sounds like a menu item on an Oregon food truck out past Deschutes toward Burns . . . :huh:

Just kidding, buddy.  -_-  Welcome to you and your Scura. There is whole nest of darkness here (Scura-types) to keep you company. :ph34r:  :ninja:  :drink:

Thanks for the warm welcome.

I'm cold because I retired to Hoth the ice planet from So. CA.

And I could not be happier :D

The aluminum flywheel looks perfect. Rings like a bell if that means anything.

I'm having difficulty attaching pictures but I will post them when I can.

Ah, max size 200kb. Be right back.

So you bought a Scura, brought it home and ripped out the flywheel? Next you'll be replacing the springs and stripping the crinkle paint from the engine, transmission and rear drive. This is the rite of passage for Scura owners. :ninja:

What flywheel and clutch will you install?

Scud,

You forgot Roper tray, reaction rod bushings and about a hundred others. :D

Clutch: I bought a steel assy on ebay, pretty darn good ring gear, and sent it off to Guzzi Power in Torrance to be lightened and balanced.

Here it is, still bolted together as he return shipped it.

But now I want to stay with a single plate assy. All I can say is I changed my little mind. So I would sell the steel assy for what it cost to machine it.

I ask you, Scud, what clutch do you and the brain trust recommend?

Also, how do I purchase the new improved gearbox springs? It's on the list :mg:

Thank you!

Running the Scura with the single plate vs the Centauro I don’t feel much of a difference in quick revving or even engine braking.

Some of these single plates had issues… Can’t you send that to Ed and have him check it out to make sure it’s okay?
