I think Charlie ^ (Antietam Classic Cycle) single handedly keeps half the vintage Moto Guzzis on this forum running, mine included!

I would recommend replacing more than just the rear crankshaft seal - it might be the only thing not leaking. I'd also replace the rear main bearing flange gasket (making sure to seal the threads of the two lower bolts that are below oil level), the breather pipe gasket, the oil return line crush washers and JB Weld the cam plug.

On the transmission, at a minimum, you'll want to replace the input and output shaft seals, plus the clutch hub o-rings and clutch pushrod seals. I can send you a set of six "special" o-rings for the clutch pushrod for free.

Silly question #1----I'm cleaning the heads. Working well and starting to look good. Can they be dipped in a bucket of warm water to get rid of the loose junk and any grit?? I will air and blow dry of course.......Would like to do this before I lap the valves to clean out the guides real well..

TheBru:
Cleaning up nice....






Don't believe I will need a new seal here... I haven't even wiped this off.



I think this looks pretty good for over 100k. Going to clean it up though.
