yeah i know with a bit of fettling it will go on but dont need to so wont.

A few daft questions if I may

The bracket that's shown in the pics under the casing -- where does this go / what is this used for. Doesn't seem to be doing anything in the pics above and I can't see where it goes on mine???

Do the joints go together just dry or is any kind of joint compound, firegum, sealant etc. required .....?

Mine came with 3 pairs of springs -- one set in within a rubber sleeve. I can see 2 sets of springs used in the pics, but the third pair in rubber?

Cheers.

I think you'll find its not fully fitted and that the bracket lines up with the hole in the casing. Plus dry fitted, plus there are three springs to fit..

is gonna take a big hammer t make bottom bracket fit rite dry fited or not; or is a bracket stil t be fitted tween case an box,

Early cases (e.g. TV200) do not have the additional mounting lug cast into the casing. As the TV200 had a habit of vibrating the silencer to bits, Innocenti put another lower mounting position on to better brace the box and to stop them from having exhaust issues.

This issue is covered in just about every manual, explaining that the period fix for early casings was to drill and tap the closes lug that you can see, then cut the bracket off and reweld it in the appropriate position. The 60s tuning manual covers this in greater detail, whereas most other manuals simply refer to the revised mounting after the TV200.

The same applies to early 125/150/175 cases so if you use one of these (converted to 200cc for an Avanti!) then you would be faced with the same issue.

Yes, exactly ,I drilled and tapped the casing but rather than reweld the tab I made a bracket to span the gap

Changed from Af Clubman to this on my Mugello200 today. It is a new bike, it likes to rev and when doing that theres lot more torque. For me this was the perfect upgrade as I have original TV200 gearing. Well done mr.B.

i also have the mugello 200 and it is very reliable but have never been happy with top speed so maybe this would be the answer as it wont rev out and thought the exhaust may be the problem.
