[[img]attachment=0]20200221_164825.jpg[/attachment][/img]I named this topic Roma just because the bike hold "Roma" plate

Neat.....I think I have only seen 1 Cagiva 350 in the USA. I dont believe they imported them here. What do you plan to do, ride as is or ??

I recently bought a Cagiva Alazzurra 650SS or GT whatever they call it. I am trying to decide what I am going to do with it, ride as is or make in to a little econo cafe bike or go for it and spend some time and money to do a more proper TT or Pantah racer replica.

See ya,
Clay

Hi Clay Thank you for replaying.
I believe in Italy we had more 350 than 650 thanks to 80's law concerning the use of 350cc.

On these latest years I change my mind and start to appreciate the Alazzurra stock bodywork. As per my Alazzurra 440 built, I believe to leave the original bodywork or maybe try to do same "pimped" project as peoples do with 80's Japanese bike. (Katana, Gpz, ecc..) toooned but with "stock" bodywork.
But this is just a dream for now.

But Alazzurra is for shure a good bike. 650 gt could be a good commuter bike or sport/touring if needed.
So congratulations for your Gt.

Ciao Filippo

I do really like the ergonomics on these for a daily rider!!

Have fun...
Clay

Look like It's Alazzura time.
Made minor adjustment.
Just replaced the exhaust pipe, now are the same colour of the exhaust terminal.
Replaced seat with a spare one in good condition and give a short clean-up.
I remain of the idea to keep this bike as stock as possible. Maybe playing with same minor bodywork adjustment (Front mudguard). And with technical upgrade.
In any case this bike need a lot of love.
Ciao Filippo

On front heads I have a good leak.
I supposed to be the camshaft oil seal, the one is behind the pulley.
I need to turn on the engine, keep it warm an look what will appen.

But what could be the origin of the leak in your opinion?
Thank you
Filippo

Ciao Filippo, quel problema di perdita olio, di solito è causato da chi prima di te ha tirato le cinghie di distribuzione in maniera smisurata, comunque basta che togli la puleggia e con un cacciavite appuntito tiri via il paraolio, sgrassi bene e ci ripianti l'altro, controlla il cuscinetto che non abbia giochi eccessivi, i paraoli si sciupano o con una fermata della moto molto prolungata, o come ti dicevo prima, fai il bravo ragazzo.
Carlo.


Hi Filippo, that oil leakage problem is usually caused by those who have pulled the timing belts before you, however, just remove the pulley and with a pointed screwdriver pull off the oil seal, degrease well and repair us. 'other, check the bearing that it does not have excessive play, the oil seals get worn or with a very prolonged stop of the bike, or as I told you before, be a good boy.
Carlo.

Ciao Carlo.
Grazie per il consiglio
Speravo fosse un problema del genere
Senza interessare la tenuta della testa.
Ne approfitto per chiederti un'alta cosa :
Esiste un utensile per smontare le pulegge in bakelite come quelle che ho sulla moto?
Ho quello per le pulegge di metallio ma non .va bene per smontare le pulegge in bakelite.
Ciao e grazie Filippo

Hi Carlo
Thank you for your suggestion.
Hoping was that kind of problem, without interesting the head seal.
Do exhist a tool for remove bakelite pulley? I have the one for the metal pulley but it don't fit with the bakelite one
Ciao e grazie Flippo
