Newbies say hello / Re: Just saying hi

Thanks again for the information. I did see a page on an adventure bike forum using some studding, a piece of wood and a large plumbing fitting to remove the clutch ring. I will search the pages here for more information. I have used Millers golden film 20W/50 to get started but the filtration is so basic, I will have to keep changing it. I have used this in other classics with clutches in engine oil and it worked fine. I will see what condition the parts are in when I get it apart shortly. I have the manual you mentioned and have used it a fair amount already, it’s been a great help. I also found a parts list in Italian on the internet that I was able to download and has been useful for part numbers.

I appreciate your time and information to help me get started and Happy New Year to you.

Regards, Paul

Thanks for the reply and information, it looked like this was another dying forum, what a shame. Anyway, I will use it whilst it’s here as a new owner, it may help me answer some questions about my bike. I have bought some Heidenau tyres and will fit these over the winter. I also bought a new taper roller steering head bearing and some other parts from Herr Priner in Germany that will improve the bike. I need to remove the primary cover as the clutch was slipping but will have to figure out how to compress the springs. Thanks for noticing my post and your reply. Regards Paul

Hello all,

I am a new owner of a military Nuovo Falcone made in 1973 apparently. The previous owner passed away and the family offered it for sale, having been stored for around 10 years. I have cleaned the fuel system, replaced some carburettor parts, fitted a new battery and got it mobile. I have ridden many British single 4 stroke machines so no problems with it. Probably needs new tyres as it’s still running on the originals that have only done 13000 km, but being marked 73, they are probably past their best!
This is just to introduce myself and find out if this forum is actually used or if it’s just a resource of historical information. I had a skim through and read that some have moved to FB, which is somewhere I avoid.

Happy riding, Paul in the UK
