Just a quick note to thank those of you who came out to the 26th Annual Italian Motorcycle Owners Club (IMOC) Rally in Sturbridge, Mass. today. We know you had...
Just an observation: Is it just me or does the "earles fork Parilla" on ebay right now just appear to be a later 50's Tourismo (or Speedster) frame/swingarm...
It does look a little weird. I've got a bunch of Earls Parilla pictures in my files, and it looks a bit angular (like the Victoria/Parillas), but not quite....
Hi Milt - Thanks for chiming in. My guess is that the forks are either MV, Rumi, or made in somebody's garage. And you are right - I should have used the word...
On another note: I'm planning on going to the big Reggio Emilia "Scambio" on March 27-28, 2010. I think Enzo and Rudiger will likely be there. Anybody else...
The completed restored bike pictured in the ebay add is in front of Edoardo Vannuchi's shop in Rimini. The only good pics I have of the Earles Parillas is one...
I think it is home made. The frame is a standard 175 frame and not "totally tubular". The only accurate pic I have is the one in the 175 parts manual. Dave ...
I am in dire need of a solid rear hub for my 250 high cam. I've been racing it at AHRMA events and here in Portland Oregon and have noticed large cracks...
The only gears like you want that I have ever seen, were made by Gary Emerson. I believe his contact info is available from the Parilla UK web site. ...
... racing it at AHRMA events and here in Portland Oregon and have noticed large cracks appearing so if anyone has a line on one please contact me at...
I made it to the Barber Vintage Festival in Leeds, Alabama over the weekend. It was good to see long-time Parillisti Jim Dillard. I also understand that Bob...
Jon, There were no Parillas on the track at Barber this year, though there was a Motobi in 200GP ridden by James Druck. I can send a photo if you want. Bob...
John - Yes - please send me a photo of the Motobi being raced. Thanks! Sorry we did not run into each other! I"m friends with Steve Arnett who was pitting with...
I just posted the last of my parts (I think) on ebay.A very nice cylinder head,a excellent cylinder,valve cover,and a pair of fork ears.Might be a few more...
Hi all - I've got a question for all you guys that have been riding or racing your Parillas for a while. I'm not electrically inclined at all and need to know...
Hi Jon. Its OK anyway up & whilst rubber mounting will give it an easier life be sure to earth the body of the reg back to the frame. If you are mounting it...
Jon , I would suggest a rubber strap mount for the regulator and the best regulator is the Bosch unit used on the Aermacchis and Wards Benellis. I have never...
Great info Mike. Thanks a bunch. Now I know where I can get a good reliable alternative to the original type. Jon ________________________________ From: mike...
Thanks Jim. I've got a couple new Bosch units I got from Cosmo so perhaps I'll try them. I've got a few options as I have a NOS original CEV unit as well. The...
I initially used a VAPE unit as sold by MZ-b in Germany - worked but a bit bulky. The place in the link I put on the posting to Bob (AO services in the UK)...
 Question for all you machinists or kinda-machinsts: Ever heard of a 3 lead thread (OD or ID)? If so, can you machine one? I have a damaged adjuster needle...
