  1. I don't understand what you want . Is it part # 9 ?
  2. Pete , you always give good input !
  3. I did mine before the advent of the one selling now on this site . I made mine just long enough to miss the frame , installed a l.h. thread rod end and new rod to where I could adjust the lever height . Buddy , this has a quicker throw than any bike on the road . It went from Farmall to GP .
  4. One bolt at a time , one bolt at a time .
  5. I missed a K75 BMW and was pissed off like a tied coon about it . My best friend got it , fixed the damage . Started it up and it made all kind of noi$e$ .
  6. Peter , I am afraid your realism is probably correct .
  7. my Guzzi parts manual gives a 30113600 ?
  8. ok
  9. This virus is a MoFo ! I hope the best for anyone that gets it . we have one confirmed case in our county as of yesterday .
  10. Mmmmm . It's kind of major . Go through it thoroughly . Be sincere and deliberate with EVERY step you take . and yes , remove the engine , taking plenty of pictures !
  11. Awful close , 1964 . when she announced her name I %#I* !
  12. Honor Blackman passed 5/04/20 . For those that don't recognize the name . she was in Goldfinger as Ms Galore ! Need I say more ?
  13. This is terrible news . I hope for the best for Paul and the family .
  14. After a reread . W/linkage unhooked , throttle plate fully closed on r.h. throttle body , set tps to 0.150-0.157mv . Then adjust all idle stop screws , linkage . Then adjust l.h. idle stop screw to 0.450 mV . I can't do any more until I install the fuel tank . I assume this will work ? That is today's goal ! BTW , I make no claims to be a "know-it-all" .
  15. Oh , this Mad Scientist is just getting started ! I will change my procedure 3 or 4 Xs before I am through . I cleaned the air bypass screws today and will adjust things more in the days to come . I'm laid-off & under house arrest ! 0.157" on closed throttle plated . Then I read 0.450" on min. idle speed ? I read 4 procedures and had doubts about some of all of them . I am NOT going to allow the throttle plates to stop in the throttle bores . After adjusting the min. TPS I will get an amount of adjustment 0.002" against the screw and then 1/4 turn on the throttle stop screw . This will keep the throttle plate just off the bore . Then I will sync. the linkages .
  16. How much was the cost ?
  17. This week I've been working on the red frame . 6 oil changes in the gear box to get a good color . Installed the gearbox to frame brace and only removed the tbi balance linkage to do it . I won't do that again . I found out it fits red frame only . Anyone want a spare ? I installed the Volvo rod end on the right side linkage and synched ( is that a good spelling ? ) throttle bodies . After reading 5 opinions on the subject , I disconnected the rod , turned the throttle stop screws in to where I had 0.002" clearance between the screw and stop , then turned the screw in 1/4 turn . Installed the linkage and put the 0.002 feeler gauge on the opposite throttle body , tightened the white knob until the gauge hit the ground and called it good . I'm still wondering about which step to take on TPS adsjustment . It has been 15 yrs since it has been on the road . I have time . Installed a new crankcase to frame hose and r.h. turn signal . Check prices before you buy anywhere but MG Cycle . Disassembled all the calipers and installed brake assy lube and had a buddy shorten one of the braided brake hoses to make it look good . Next week and more to do !
  18. AMEN brother !
  19. we're all the same on this forum .
  20. And the motorcycles w/the most issues are the wildest in bed !
  21. Does Beck wear a tie ?
  22. I like the Ole Man emoji !
  23. Problem solved . Use the clutch to take off & TCB !
