    Nope, not even close to fitting. Gearbox mounts are different as is the engine offset in the frame. Ciao

    Inner city Melbourne before the transformation to V11/V10 Ciao

    Oh shit, thanks Pete sorry about that. I've amended my post. Ciao

    Yes well done indeed. It all makes perfect sense. I've never experienced the starter button jamming in on any bike, one to put in the memory bank. No wait, better write it down. Ciao

    Download the 2 valve Griso parts manual from This old tractor and cross ref or order the parts you need. Thats what I did. Ciao

    Its actually a nice design let down by cheaping out on the orings to save around $1. My modified version works perfectly and is now rebuildable if the need ever arises which it shouldn't considering the use it gets. It's nice reaching under the tank and knowing you don't need to fight the fuel tap to simply shut it off. Ciao

    Nope, I've had 2 taps jam up and I don't use ethanol fuel. Nitrile seals aren't totally unaffected by gasoline. The swelling can be ok in the instance of a confined static seal in a fuel system where the seal swell can actually help sealing but in a dynamic situation they are hopeless. Ciao

    How? The only solution I'm aware of is to replace the Nitrile O rings with Viton/FKM seals. That's the reason they seize up and get stiff because the std O rings swell like crazy when exposed to fuel. I covered the modification here a while back. Ciao
  14. Lucky Phil
    Yep good advice, they are what I used. Ciao
  15. Lucky Phil
    Yes docc, wise words indeed. Ciao

    Aesthetics mainly but the integrated protectors are a nice thing to have. Ciao
  17. Lucky Phil

    I fitted Griso covers to my 2 Valve engine. Part number you need for the covers is 06941000 (2off) Std HT leads and caps fit. Ciao

    I just use ceiling insulation batt material. Ciao
  21. Lucky Phil
    Yes docc the hole idea would be the best answer. As long as it had some edge margin. Ciao
  22. Lucky Phil
    The idea behind the universal joint cover is to retain the joint in the event of failure or partial failure, just ask docc. By hacking a lubricating window in the cover you have negated this function as the idea is a round smooth ring to contain the failed joint without areas for it to grab on and cause more carnage. Not a great idea. Ciao
  23. Lucky Phil
    Yep Ciao
  24. Lucky Phil
    No docc the additional frame length is fwd of the front subframe mounts. Ciao
