Re: Rear spring/shock replacement

the original Marzocchi is a goot shock and is worth reconditioning it. I did mine a couple of years ago (Oram in Italy, i keep my bike there), but i think any good suspension "guy" will be in position to overhaul it.

Re: 1990 750 Sport for sale

Nice post! The only thing I would change is the advice on the cams, I personally would go for the ST2 version which is the preferred one for all raving BOT stuff . These have a higher lift and will need to be checked for piston clearance. Having said that I would not bother in changing anything that...

Re: 1990 750 Sport for sale

Most 750s have 41/35 some 900s have the same so you need to be careful anyways. Most 900s are 43/38 and the 100ds should be 45/41 I read that the 800ie had the 43/38s but I don't think it will fit the 750 heads most likely the 800 was a 900 downsized but would be interesting checking.... The 600 and...

Re: Oil leaks 89 900 ss

One trick when fitting complex assemblies is like bodywork or exhausts is to just to put all together without tightening and gigle all bits around. 1mm here 1mm there and suddenly you realize the fitting is perfect. At this point you start tightening all and see if it stays put... if not then you ca...

Re: 1990 750 Sport for sale

the pulleys are all fitted with keys , the only way to get a pulley "wrong" is to remove it and refit it without a hey, this way you don't really know how the camshaft is aligned and you could get it completely out of sync did you remove the pulley and forgot top refit the key? As mentione...

Re: 1990 750 Sport for sale

Update, for all the fans that are watching :D I changed the oil, and took her for a ride. Rode 25 miles with no problems, still on the old tires. The bike ran great!!! Makes pretty good power. It seems to like the long intake runners in the mid range. Once I got it back I decided to install the new...

Re: 750 Sport run issue

:lol: :truck: someone who thinks like me. A pressure regulator can be a good thing but just like with the wiring mod it should be done only after it has been verified that everything is in perfect working order. If that isn't done you're only adding another variable. The return line is working. Obi...

Re: 750 Sport run issue

Thank for the tips! Have to measure the pump pressure. How much is the original pump pressure value? I desided to get new fuel lines and the Holley regulator. I assume this is the item people are using? https://www.holley.com/products/fuel_systems/fuel_pumps_regulators_and_filters/regulators/carbur...

Re: 750 Sport run issue

question... is the fuel pump "original"? I mean the one for carburated engines? the IE version is exactly the same from the outsice but pumps @ over 3BAR and you will need a pressure regulator to make it work correctly with the Injectors. in your case even 1.5 bar are too much, the carbura...

Re: Restoration started

Not sure... lets say there is need of a small repair, that system could work but here we are talking of the whole bike? I need to tidy my 907 around the central stand, I am not planning of disassembling the frame ad repaint the whole thing... I will just take off the stand, paint it separately (mayb...

Re: picture thread - I have no words ...

my eyes were hurting so much I had to take them out with a spoon.

This thread will hunt me forever... I went through the 17 pages now it is impossible to un-see what I saw.

I am traumatized.

Re: Belt change 906 aaaaaaaaargh @£$%^&* !!!

when I did my 907 I had the same issue, I struggled a little but in the end I managed to put them on.

the removal was easy, I took the cutter and voila'.

Flanges serve no purpose so next time I will take them out.
