I like old bikes but hate points, especially Moto Guzzi points and will never deal with them again. And carburetor’s are hit and miss, I own 4 carbureted bikes and they are all a pain in the ass at some point in their riding time, though the CX carb has been incredibly unproblematic for some reason. The new more expensive Amals on the Norton are quite good, runs well and never fowls the plugs but the ticklers are finicky. I have to drop the bowls and take a look but have put this off for about six months…..
