General Discussion / Re: Could be a return to fold moment ahead

« Last post by OkJohn on April 19, 2024, 01:50:25 PM »

Well - I made a very brief visit by the dealer to have a quick look...  Did put a leg over it and it sure did seem a bit "porky" as someone mentioned earlier. IT was not love at first sight either. I'll keep my eyes open for what may "pop up" next I guess.

Thanks all !

General Discussion / Re: Tank bag for V85TT?

« Last post by Trialsman on April 19, 2024, 01:36:39 PM »

This looks like it could work . https://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/parts/tusk-olympus-tank-bag-p

This is the bag I put on my new Stelvio.  I like the quality and features of the bag, but check the size as a camera and water bottle might be tight, depending on what you use. 




On my V85 I have the Giant Loop Diablo, which is a little bigger.  Two things to be careful of on this bag are; the map case needs a cover since it isn't really too waterproof.  The second is that the bag is so much longer it makes getting the ignition key access a little bit of a pain.  All in all it is a good quality bag.

You really did nail the Breva.  If I could only ever have one bike for a lifetime, I think it would be the B1100.
See you down the road.

General Discussion / Marelli starter brushes

« Last post by tparr on April 19, 2024, 12:48:05 PM »

I am disassembling and cleaning the starter for my 1969 Ambassador. The brushes are well worn and need to be replaced. Does anyone know where I can source these? Perhaps someone has a Fiat part number. The starter is a Magneti Marelli MT 40H- 0.7HP 12V. Thanks, Tim

On the mounting plate of 1984 850T distributor, how can you rotate the plate?
The left plate is held by two screws but the right (base) cannot be rotated because of the screws that hold the mount for the wires.
Instructions say to rotate the plate but it can only go so far. Not enough to line up with the static mark.
Can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong?
Thanks

You set right cylinder timing by rotating the "distributor".
