I find that's true on a lot of these types of seats, particularly on the Lambretta. This Fini seat didn't however seem too high to my eye? I really DO NOT like...
Hi Jakson, That is pretty interesting modification on the Greg's mounts. I like your modification and it is more like original than current version. It should...
someone told me a story how they did there mounts, not sure how true but here it is,.... he said he used chemical resin anchor glue to glue a stud into the old...
That sounds like a reasonable idea....? Thought about it for a few minutes.... Knowing my luck the resin would run out of the support tube and down the inside...
i personaly used a rawl bolt , or expansion plug to do the last set i did, and the set before that a clutch spigot bearing puller and a big socket, came out a...
Hum.....This makes me wonder if the UK powder coating is different than here in California. We have VERY VERY VERY strict laws on anything automotive related....

Sometimes pin just falls out from overheating, ring rotates and "bites" the port, sometimes ring just brakes... have seen couple GS160 with top ring/piston...
Hi Dmitry, Thank you for the info. It was getting cooler last week and it affected the air-fuel mixture I guess? I've just heard the noise of the ring breaks...
Ouch indeed... I've got one somewhat similar in my loft. One eyelet of the circlip snapped off, migrated down the hole in the gudgeon pin (wrist pin,...
I have seen 2 GS160 that ran after top ring broke, was removed and than bike assembled with only 1 ring and badly damaged piston crown, both were done a while...
suspect is due to extra revs from jl exhaust, hot combustion temp will let the ring peg come lose and move, do not suspect atmospheric change to be so great as...
