Bruce>I have noticed the symptoms you talk about- on 2 of my three Moto
Guzzi's.I have 2 ,74 Eldo's and a 72 v7sport.The sports symptoms were much
stronger than the 1 Eldo.The other Eldo had its clutch replaced before I
purchased it and it shifts the best of my bikes.So, over the winter I had
the clutch completely done on the v7sport.I went from the 2mm to the 4
mm.From looking at my old parts- I saw they were so far beyond the 'replace
by date' that it was amazing the damn thing ran at all.The bike shifts great
now-positive,progressive clutch action {ps and it dont lie when at a stop
in EYTALION in neutral-when really in 1st gear}.I had the #2 Eldo opened up
and looked at,{because the shift return spring bit the dust} but couldn't
afford another clutch at this time.When I can, it also will go from 2mm to
4mm.Its also a good time when the things apart to remedy oil leaks with new
seals-----KO Original Message -----

Then my clutch started to act up to where the bike wanted to creep forward when supposedly stopped with the clutch all the way in. It turns that my 2 mm clutch input hub was not allowing the clutch discs to fully disengage; there were notches in the hub beat into it by the clutch discs (and the non-cush rear drive). Over the winter, I replaced the 2 mm hub and clutch plates with the newer style 4 mm units. Haven't had a chance to try it out yet. Bruce Richard Arimoto wrote:
