my first thought is gas. either nasty or water. depending on the level of neglect, could just be condensation. (cuz where you live) If it's been awhile you may want to drain and flush the tank.

tech night at @Tomchri 's please.

Hello and welcome. What a beauty.

Potential failure of the aluminum flywheel in the Tenni and Scura, and 'possibly' the Rosso Mandello, but maybe not

That's the best looking Tenni deal I've seen in recent memory. $6k / 11k mi. and looks well kept. The clutch swap shouldn't matter. If the owner isn't sure then it likely has not been addressed. Buy it - fix it.

for the Ballabio lh grey plate this turned up... https://ad.fowlersparts.co.uk/parts/view/GU01415891

I normally web search the part number. For example this turned up for GU01415880 https://cadrecycle.com/product/lh-rear-fork-plate-cafe-sport/ I'm not sure how many models had grey or how many different greys they made. Valve covers. I believe the color you want came standard on the NC and the RC. Also looks like RM but I can't be sure. That's potentially a few p/n's to look for.

and very old joke. I'm in Indiana for reference. Describing a man's state of inebriation, hangover, or plain old wastedness: "his eyes looked like a Kentucky road map" It's a good descriptor for eyes, or Kentucky roads. Not sure if it's just a local thing or has anyone else heard of this? for thread integrity:

there are stickers?

friends around here say we have two seasons. Riding season, and building season.

Just a thought. I have a set of covers from a 2003 Rosso Corsa. They are somewhat faded, as are many of the ones in photos I have seen. The color seems 'off' from what was possibly intended anyway. Was it intended to be the same as the Mandello tank? My point is, not unlike many of the (varying) red side plates, the paint or anodizing is often unreliable. If you can't find fairly NOS, I would get 'whatever' color parts and have them done to suit.

could it be this guy? Gerald Pollack is a bioengineering professor known for his discovery of a "fourth phase of water," called Exclusion Zone (EZ) water, a gel-like, negatively charged state distinct from solid, liquid, and gas. This EZ water forms at hydrophilic (water-loving) surfaces, repels impurities, and has a charge separation that can generate energy, analogous to photosynthesis, to power cellular processes and potentially other technologies. His research also explores its profound implications for biology, chemistry, and environmental applications. This is a new one on me Tom. Quite interesting. I will investigate further ( since I intend to live forever) Grok had a similar and lengthy detailed answer. I posted duckduck's AI answer instead. Seems like this process removes many trace minerals. (which we need) Is this a concern for you? I drink a half liter first thing every morning. Recently with molecular hydrogen. (then after teas and coffee) into mid morning -a second half liter with pomegranate juice and 2tblsp of apple cider vinegar. A third half liter in the afternoon and an IPA in the eve Proper hydration cures a lot of ailments, as does beer.

I bless my stuff with it because going 'somewhere' is not an option. I always over-secure for peace of mind. The same goes for weight/suspension proportional loading.
