Hi,

=20

first I need to say hallo on this list. I moved over from the MGCL after =
they had some digest mode troubles and I assume I got lost.

I was with them 6 years already. Time to experience something new.

=20

My V7 Special (=3DAmbo) caused me a lot of headache early last year with =
a broken gear box cush spring and in autumn I had a cracked cam gear at =
highway speed. Luckily, just one valve was bent, but nevertheless =
troublesome to experience both within short period of time.

This year I committed myself to a pre-season check on the u-joint of the =
Mille GT. Started Saturday by pushing the rubber hose away and spotting =
what=92s the inside look like. Turned out to be not tidy and so I =
removed swing arm and joint.=20

Joint was ok, and so I proceeded to the joint support bearing by =
inspecting it with my fingers. He, what=92s this inner ring surface? And =
it does not turn smoothly. Further examination and disassembly showed, =
that the inner ring is broken FOUR times! Guess I was lucky to find this =
prior to an excessive damage.=20

But even the pinion bearing had excessive play (axial .26mm) and the =
pinion tooth surfaces are awesome. I intend to fix the play and continue =
with the pinion, but check it e.g. with each new tire.

=20

So, why always me? It keeps me really busy to keep both Guzzis alive and =
this is getting boring. A minor fix every now and then would be ok, but =
the working hours and money I spent within a year is really on the limit =
by now!=20

Which troubles did you experience so far?

=20

ciao
