I need a Falcone clutch pack.
I sent a thorough e-mail and pictures to Guzzi Retro early this week.
No response at all.
Anyone have recent dealing with them and know why they may be AWOL?
Anyone dealt with Valenti recently?
Advise a better vendor?

I just got stuff from them last week and service was excellent. They might be shut down for summer vacation. I saw a notice from my Italian book seller that they would be shut down.

My son in London needed clutch parts for his v7. They were on back order in the UK and Italy on holiday for a month. I got his parts here in New Zealand. So Guzzi parts from Italy to London via NZ - 24,000 mile detour (and 35% cheaper!).

Traditionally most Italian factories shut down for the whole of August for
staff holidays.

I think I broke something in the engine.
Had the GTV running and it seemed pretty good then it back fired through the carb and quit. No problem, she's done that before but now it's very tight feeling on the kick starter. Pull the clutch and the lever moves through. Let it out and I could stand on the lever. The engine still turns but very tight as if it was seizing. I'll let it cool down and try it again next week unless I swing by the shop tomorrow.
At least the oil leaks are gone......

Dave Knaack <fastgu...@gmail.com>: Jul 29 06:41PM -0500

If it was English and there’s no oil leaks it’s out of oil. That would explain the problem too
All joking aside, sorry to hear, keep us posted

I’m making new shims to take up the excess sideplay on my Falcone rocker
arms. Does anyone know what the sideplay should be.
I’ve got .025 thou on the inlet at the moment. Too tight perhaps.

Patrick, have you tried Motofornitura Valassi in Mandello del Lario ( where they make the bikes). A brief check on their website here https://www.motofornituravalassi.it/ricerca?controller=search&s=Frizione+falcone
They are likely closing shortly for holidays though if not already.

Richard
