Hey Marco,

I tried to contact Mr. Frigerio a few mounth ago - but I got no ansers on mails...

Can You check, if he still has parts for GILERA RC600, I am searching for the Rallye Kit from 1990 with large Fueltank...?

Would be great,

Christoph

Flash-news.......
I have taken apart carburetor from my XR1..... :roll:
I can believe it!
The 17 years old fuel (and oil), now evaporated, completely blocked gas valve into the body of carburetor!!!!! :shock:
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? :cry:

Thanks everybody
