Would be great,
Christoph

Hi Gottfried!
Well... but you already meet me!
We meet ourselves about a Gilera CX, in october 2005.
Do you remember?
Since that moment I've begun to look for a Gilera XR1......
I don't know if I'll be there in Piacenza.... but sure in Novegro!
At soon.

Flash-news.......
I have taken apart carburetor from my XR1.....
I can believe it!
The 17 years old fuel (and oil), now evaporated, completely blocked gas valve into the body of carburetor!!!!!
It's 3 days that the carburator it's flooded into new fuel but... nothing!!!!
I've been forced to cut the cable of throttle to transport carburator in a small basin with fuel.....
Some suggestion?
Thanks everybody
Marco
