It looks as though I owe you an apology, I thought that the thread had moved on and looking at Rubber Cow Fans post of 2nd May 2022 I thought that we were now discussing seal kits and then the discussion on 17th July had then moved on to master cylinders [ ''pumps'' according to Google translate] , maybe it is a misunderstanding on my part, I had not meant to divert the thread so my apologies to Rubber Cow Fan and also to Oelfinger both of whom it seems that I have accidently upset. I was merely intending to keep my Sachs on the road in the very unlikely event that a seal failed and was hoping to gain and hopefully share information with other 800 owners to everyone's benefit as I think that sharing information on these machines can only be a good thing for all of us.

Does anyone know the seal sizes for the front calliper on the 800 Roadster ? the Brembo callipers are getting expensive as an option if the seals in the Grimeca fail also does anyone know if it is possible to re-seal the clutch and brake master cylinders ? I think that it is possible that Guzzi used the same master cylinders just as some of the Guzzi 1100cc bikes and Monsters used the same Callipers, however, if the seals failed I would think that a complete master cylinder from another bike could be a replacement, [ would this be from a R6 looking at the posts above or have I misunderstood ?]

No probs, I haven’t a clue how to message someone on this site but if you know how send me your email addresses and I’ll send the drawings. I’m on holiday for the next week without my laptop so I’ll forward the drawings when I get back. If you can’t work out how to message on this site either then message me on the U.K. Intruder 800 site instead.

I have a Sachs drawing of the long and short versions courtesy of a member of this site, I'd be happy to send them to you but I'm not sure that you'd get it made for the equivalent of 200 Euros.

Hi Adilmon, here's my fairly standard R800 apart from Hagon shocks on the rear and the EBC discs that you pointed out. Anyone else ?
Hi Adilmon, here's my pretty standard R800, aside from the Hagon dampers on the back and the EBC discs you pointed out. Anyone else?

- Mine translates German to English automatically, sorry that it does not work the other way around for you on the few rare times that you need it to. Even when I copy and paste my response to you in German from Google translate the translation is in English on my screen but I assume that you are seeing it in German on your screen as you requested .
- Meiner übersetzt automatisch Deutsch ins Englische, sorry, dass es bei Ihnen in den wenigen seltenen Fällen, in denen Sie es brauchen, nicht umgekehrt funktioniert. Selbst wenn ich meine Antwort auf Deutsch von Google Translate kopiere und einfüge, ist die Übersetzung auf Englisch auf meinem Bildschirm, aber ich gehe davon aus, dass Sie sie auf Deutsch auf Ihrem Bildschirm sehen, wie Sie es angefordert haben.

- Hi Rubber Cow Fan,
- Apologies, the site translates to English it seems automatically unless I selected an option a long time ago that I've forgotten and I assumed that the reverse would be the case OR a reader in Germany could right click on the text and hit the 'Translate ' icon, however, point taken and I will use Google translate from now on;
- Hallo Gummi Kuh Ventilator,
- Entschuldigung, die Website übersetzt ins Englische, es scheint automatisch, es sei denn, ich habe vor langer Zeit eine Option ausgewählt, die ich vergessen habe, und ich nahm an, dass das Gegenteil der Fall sein würde ODER ein Leser in Deutschland könnte mit der rechten Maustaste auf den Text klicken und auf das Symbol "Übersetzen" klicken, jedoch Punkt genommen und ich werde von nun an Google Translate verwenden.

Thanks Adilmon, I am strangely fascinated by where my bikes are made so I appreciate the photo [ curious about the blue tanks in the background] . The Facebook link won't open but don't worry if you can't sort it out.

Hi Dirk,
I am in Lincoln, so fairly rural here.

This question aimed at Relax, I assume that you have changed the Sachs 800 spec carbs for the Suzuki ones ? Is this could be a worthwhile modification so in what ways did it improve your bike ?
Adilmon, regarding questions for Mr. Huhn I would find it interesting to see how many development kilometres went into the project for the 800 and what problems they encountered along the way. Another question for Adilmon is how on earth did you find these people !
One last general question, does anyone have photos of the Roadster 800 in production at the factory? I am always fascinated by where my bikes came from.
