Andy,
Ian told me to set intake at .06 and exhaust at .10 but I had been setting
my exhaust at .08. Do you think this could contribute to my occasional
problem with my starboard cylinder? Bob

right, I,m horrible with remembering specs. Someone want to comfirm
that?

 Hi people. Here is the frame & engine number off my 1973 Eldorado:
58186. It is a civilian model, single front drum brake. My other Guzzi,
a 1974 Police (I believe) Eldorado, has number 61372 on eng and frame.
The PO of this bike got tired of paying $15/year license so he junked
the title, a very dumb move because this bike is really quite a nice
one. So now I am looking for a way to get a title. I would prefer to buy

a titled 73/74 Eldorado frame for it, anyone know where I can get a
reasonably priced frame w/title?
My '73, new to me, is running great and I'm really enjoying it. Do most
of these old Guzzi's have a "ringing" coming from the heads at cruising
speeds? Or are they supposed to be quiet like a Cadillac?
