2008 Moto Guzzi Stelvio - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
Why would my 2006 Moto Moroni 1200cc bike backfire understarting and not start?
How long has it been sitting? Stale fuel? Water condensation? Fuel is turned on? Check throttle plates for carbon junking in the throat of intake. Are plugs wet or tune up gapping large? When was last fuel filter change and air filter ...is it clogged also. When was the last time it ran well before the pop and no kick? Small things will get you, you miss them easy. Big things smack you silly.
How do I replace a tail light on a 250 cf moto fashion scooter, the right rear light
You need to post the year also but if there are no screws that you can see it could be that you need to twist the lens to remove it or more likely it is a push in lens and you would need to grasp it well enough to be able to pull it out and off or possibly VERY carefully get a knife edge or similar between the lens and the light housing and pop it off. If you have the lens off and you are referring to the bulb you will need to twist it a little to remove it. Wear some gloves in case it is rusted or corroded in place and the glass breaks when you twist it, normally to the right as you face it.
Moto morini 1200 zz, pixel failure on dash
How bad is the failure? Commonly a total failure will mean it has to be replaced. Repairing could be more expensive and you have to find a specialist to do it.

Certificate of authenticity BSA C15
1. British Motorcycle Owners Club (BSA OC)
- What They Offer: The BSA Owners Club can issue a Certificate of Authenticity for your BSA C15, which confirms the authenticity of the bike based on the engine number, frame number, and any historical records they have for the model.
- How to Apply:
- Visit the BSA Owners Club website (https://www.bsamotorcycles.com).
- Look for information on applying for a COA. It usually requires details about the bike, including engine number, frame number, photos, and any receipts or records related to its rebuild.
- Cost and Time: There may be a small fee for the service, and it could take some time, depending on the workload of the club.
2. Vehicle Identity Check (VIC) at DVLA
- If you're in the UK and looking to register the bike, the DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) may require a Vehicle Identity Check (VIC) to verify the identity of the motorcycle. This is especially true if the bike doesn't have an MOT or prior registration.
- The VIC process will involve submitting details of your rebuilt bike, and once it passes, you'll be able to register it with the DVLA.
- The COA can help you during this process, but it may not be a requirement. The VIC process is more about confirming that the bike is not stolen or tampered with.
3. Local Vintage Motorcycle Dealers or Specialists
- In some areas, there are dealers or specialists who can help verify the authenticity of vintage bikes. They may be able to issue a certificate or assist with the registration process.
- Tip: Search for vintage motorcycle specialists or restoration shops in your area to see if they can help with issuing a COA or guiding you through the registration process.
4. Classic Vehicle Clubs and Forums
- Some online forums or social media groups dedicated to classic bikes might be able to provide more specific advice or direct you to local facilities that issue COAs.
- Websites like Classic Bike Forum or BSA Owners Club Forum can be great places to connect with fellow enthusiasts who might have dealt with similar issues.
If you're unsure of where to start or need a more specific location-based solution, let me know where you're located, and I can help search for nearby services.
