Thought it kinda looked like the Alfa badge, maybe faded a little, but I guess we can't all be so lucky. I DO have an Afla unfortuantely my 1992 164-S decided that 260K miles was the right time for the head gasket to self destruct and a rod bearing to sympathetically go to the great beyond with the head gasket... If you know anyone with a wrecked 164-s with a good engine let me know I'm not looking forward to rebuilding the lower end, and an engine swap would a nice easy solution, It gave me 140K trouble-free miles (bought it with a 120K on it) I guess I can't be too dissapointed... but I miss my Alfa

Oh well, just another reason to ride the SM

thanks for the lead dave! Always glad to have another source for parts... The big name guys (Centerline, Alfa-Ricambi, and IAP) are great for most things, but they aren't so up on "helpin' the little guy out" if you know what I mean

P.S. Almost bought a Yugo race car once, I think it was a what, '88 or '89 GT, roll cage, custom suspension, no interior except for driver's seat and instruments... Body was nice and solid, but the motor was little on the flogged side, I figured it wasn't worth the $900 they wanted for it..

hi, i just thought i should update you guys on this...
after blaming the carb...ignition coil...restricted exhaust...
finally i blamed the intake cam...and it payed off...

this setting(on the first page) made my bike ran rich(it boggs a bit n surged afterwards)..but great mid range!however,i decided to set it back to stock setting...maybe it's not right for my altitude...half a punch mark was too much for me...


maybe next time i might try something less like 1/6 of the punch mark...
will update if i do...
