I replaced my tube orings twice before I examined the grooves. The casting in the back of the groove was pitted (probably that way since new). I cleaned the areas and added high temp silicone to the pitted areas only, installed the new oring and no more seeping. Apparently the oil was migrating ...

1974 750 GT $8500 SOLD
I purchased this bike in 2001 from a friend who wanted it to have a good home. It has never had the seal broken on the bottom end and mechanically it needed new spark plug threads so I had the heads done and put it back together with new gaskets. In 2002 after a 1000miles and ...

Thanks for the input, very interesting! I had to convert my charging system to a Detronics because I (self inflicted) shorted my stock voltage regulator while cleaning terminals several years ago. Recently my battery needed replaced so I put the 2 year old Oddessy battery from the Guzzi in until I ...

125# rear, 127# front. Don't know how to do a leak down test. I have valve guide seals in the top end gasket set I bought from you. Can they be put in without pulling the heads? I think if the plugs were wet looking when I pulled them and it was just fuel wet they would dry out. These still look wet ...

I will let you know what I come up with...my problem is I don't stop riding it long enough to fix it!

Steve,
The main jets were already drilled but I was trying to establish whether I was close or not. The Haynes manual says 118 front and 112 rear so after measuring I think I am "in the county" as far as sizes go. I am sure a new atomizer, needle and main jet would help but I am not convinced it is ...

Could use some help with this one. 74 750 GT restored 4 years ago & 14,000 miles. Electronic ignition, new needles when carbs rebuilt, stock coils and new (then) :? non resistor wires. Always starts 2nd kick with full choke when cold and runs great until plugs need changed. Plugs have some carbon ...

I have also been using Castrol 20w50 for the last 30 years. I still use it on everything except my 74 750 GT. I've been using Aeroshell 100 (50w) for the last 12,000 miles. It may crater tomorrow but so far so good. I do not do much cold weather riding (less than 60 degrees) as we don't have much ...

First, order a 20mm x 26mm x 4mm oil seal (Chicago Rawhide 7854) from Pervis Bearing. I think the seal was $4.00 and the shipping was $6.00. Still, cheaper than you could order it from Ducati if they even had one! Then buy a small package of 4x3/8 flat Phillips head screws from Lowes. You will ...
