Re: Cog gear

on the spare parts catalogue the gear is held with a circlip and the gear pin is bolted to the crankcase trough a long allen bolt.

my guess is that the pin is fitted with a slight interferance, and the bolt does the holding.

Starting on one cylinder after a long stop

it has been a couple of years that it is happening, after leaving the bike in storage for 4-6 months , it will start on one cylinder, then after few seconds it will run properly.

the first time I though an injector was sticking but I am not really sure... any similar esperiences?

Thanks :)

The primary on the elefant da 3...

Re: Charging/electrical question

one word of advise, when you play with looms always do ONE connector at the time, disconnect clean lubricate a reconnect, especially on the old looms. Moderm looms are fool proof either by color coding or using different connectors so you cannot mix them up. Old looms sometimes have the same connect...

Re: Charging/electrical question

P750s are starting to have some age and the first problem with "vintage" looms is that they start to behave weird. First thing, get yourself a new battery (or borrow one that you know it works) , some contact cleaner and some nice contact grease and start cleaning and lubricating all the c...
