Surflex complete clutch disc set for Guzzi Lodola - "timeless vintage"
When it comes to keeping venerable vintage Moto Guzzi models on the road, it is no surprise that the historic Italian brand - ''Marchio Storico" - Surflex, the iconic Italian clutch specialist, has "got you covered".
The very first Italian company to manufacture clutches for motorcycles and scooters, Surflex has produced over 15,000 different clutch components in its 70 plus years - including components for motorcycles dating back to 1920.
In 21st century terms, future classic Moto Guzzi applications have included the 1,064 cc, 91 bhp V11 Sport 'Rosso Mandello' (2001-2005) and the 121 bhp, 1,225 cc MGS-01 (2004-2006). However, jumping right back to Surflex' early years, seen here is its model-specific replacement clutch disc kit for the innovative1956-1966 Guzzi Lodola - 175 and 235 cc.
Noted for results in off-road competitions such as the "Motogiro d'Italia", this complete Surflex clutch kit consists of two types of discs: one in steel and one in 'Tombac' - a brass alloy with high copper content, tin and 5 - 20% zinc content - "for a compromise between resistance in use and smoothness in clutch engagement.
"The two materials differ visibly in both colour and brightness. And the kit also includes a ring totally made of Surflex friction material and five prepared, ready to use springs. Fully interchangeable with the original, the kit is for those who want a clutch that ensures performance in combination with efficiency and reliability in all conditions of use".
