Re: gilera 125 rally r1 any info?
hi marco
could you tell me if the xr1 front end,ie.yokes and forks would fit my frame also would my front wheel fit the xr1 forks.
i have the possibility of buying the forks and yokes and wheel spindle from the xr1
for £50.
kind regards adrian

I think that you have seen an auction on eBay....
Well, I think that you can fit a wheel of Gilera XR1 on R1; but rim of XR1 it's a chrome steel one, and R1 rim it's a "gold" aluminium one......
About change a complete front wheel gear..... well... I don't know....
I think that maybe it's possible, but it's possible too that you change the measures of your motorbike (like front misalignment?).
This can give you some troubles when you ride your R1.....
But why? What kind of problem have actually your front forks?

hi marco
update!
only 1 fork leg is bent,about 10 mm out.the other leg is fine.ive had new seals fitted as well
the front end is on now and doesnt look too bad.i will know more when i get her out on the road next week.
thanks for sourcing those forks for me how much do you think it would cost for shipping to the uk?im not sure what to do now.the xr1 forks are quite local to me but im not sure about fitment.ie.wheel,brakes,top clamp etc?
kind regards adrian

Well... 10 mm, aren't too much.... but you must to consider that your front forks will works in torsion.....
This can damage quickly oil seals.
About ride your Gilera R1 with a forks slightly bent.... yeah.... We'll see!
I think that shipping costs for a complete forks gear from Italy to England are about 50/60 Euros....
..... not very cheap....
But we'll see!
About front wheel and brakes XR1/R1: brakes are the same (disk, clamps, diameter and measure), but I don't know about wheel spacer on pin wheel....

i went to see the xr1 forks this evening ,luckily i took along my r1 forks for comparecent.the xr1 forks where far to big between the yokes.the guy(paul)was a bike breaker by trade and had a vast amount of spares for all italian bikes.he had a complete front end including wheel of a gilera rc 600 which i brought.and it fits .
more updates tomorrow when i complete the refit.

Re: gilera 125 rally r1 any info?
hi all,
i took the bike out for a quick spin and all seems well,apart from a little hunting(rise and fall)at tickover. any ideas?
the rc 600 front end fits well and handles quite good.

Very well! Good job!
What do you mean about hunting at tickover?
A not regular number of rpm at "minimum"?
Please tell me more!

Re: gilera 125 rally r1 any info?
hi marco
the tickover rpm is a little erratic.sometimes the rpm rises for a while then returning to normal.
its probably the carburettor jets or settings.
apart from the above all is fine
thanks for all your help
