Re: 1100 or 1200 engine?

The CARC 1100cc engines are basically excellent, simple, robust, torquey and very suited to a Triking, Guzzi only stopped making them as the combustion chamber design was not suited to further revision for meeting the latest restrictive emission standards. BUT- Probably worth noting that although ra...

Re: Exhaust groove feature in Type 2/3 Models

Exhaust groove was / (is still as the T2 is a current model) a feature on the Type 2 ONLY. Its a misconception that the groove is anything to do with the exhaust (other than its location) - it was actually done to increase the stiffness of the body sides as this was the first body made entirely from...

Re: Detachable steering boss size

The std Triking boss is actually imperial 2" PCD fixing holes, this is to suit the better quality QR and similar type motorsport hubs which are mostly 2". Usually if the hubs are marked or sold as "FIA approved" they are OK quality. The std Triking 90mm dia fixed boss adapter is quite thick so could...

Re: Starting technique?

The enrichment function on the EFI engines is purely electronic (done by the ECU which it calculates by reading the temperature from the sensors) If an EFI engine doesn't start readily without operating the throttle in a specific way then its likely the electronics are not quite set correctly - TPS ...

Re: Starting technique?

The 1100 EFI should start easily with a few revolutions and a very small amount of throttle, It does need to be fully primed as fuel can syphon back to the tank if left for a longer period. Make sure the fuel system is in good order - Pre-filter - pump - EFI filter and Pressure regulator (check the ...

Re: Tension spring on parking brake rear caliper
