GRiSO roller tappet conversion - Denver, CO

The shop I'm going to have do it is actually an independent shop. They specialize in vingtage motorcycles but also have a deep understanding and love for Japanese and European bikes. They just seem like they take pride in their work in general, and that is half the battle in my opinion. This conversion can't be rocket science, but I want to make sure whoever lays hands on it, treats it like it's their own.

This could describe the shop I referenced to a "t". Seems we are dialing in the 'what to look for' bio for cities void of known Guzzi gurus ....

Incidentally I'd taken my Showa USD forks from my GRiSO to this same shop for a rebuild, as I didn't have the right tools or the time. Quick turn, and actually demanded I show him I'd done a SAG test and had logic to support proposed changes to OEM specs. Old timers that respect the engineering. It's a beautiful thing.

AF1 racing said the B kit is 4-6 months out!

The warehouse has the A and C kits in stock, 2-3 weeks.

Can I use the A or C kit and order the missing components (if any)? Looks like the C kit actually has more parts than I'd need.

See my PM. The ‘C’ kit has parts you won’t use as suggested.
