  1. That's interesting...only about a 10% weight savings going from aluminum to steel...will be interesting to hear your feedback after the install if you notice it being more sluggish than before on pickup. By the way, one question for other Scura owners...do you notice when the bike is idling in neutral, is it more rattley than when you pull in the clutch, also in neutral? Thanks...waiting anxiously for the farkles to arrive!

    Brand-new Scura

    Great thread Scud documenting all the changes here. Nicely obscured all the small bits! I just read it from beginning to end now that I've got Sophia La Scuzzi in the garage. The Rizoma darker reservoirs look like a great idea...I had to chuckle as well as the first time I saw the transparent ones, the thought of doing a urine sample came to mind as well! Back when I went to UCSD in the early 80's we used to go up to Julian quite a bit - didn't have a moto of my own then...but got to ride a friend's Honda VFR 1000 Interceptor up and down from La Jolla to Del Mar and Solana Beach and back. I miss San Diego indeed...try to go back every couple of years for a visit! One item I'm wondering...has anyone found good replacement grips which are not so bulgy as the stock ones? Is there something in the middle of these grips on the bars which bulges out? I've just put ProGrips on my Norge and they are very comfortable...curious if you or anyone has replaced the grips on the Scura. Also...does anyone have a link to a PDF for the original Owner's Manual for the Scura or a Maintenance Manual? Thanks!
  5. Thanks David and Scud! Going to enjoy it a bunch I'm sure of that!
  6. Just picked up S287 from a board member here last weekend who did a great job prepping it and fixing a ton of items with great attention to detail. Bike rides perfectly, will take a little getting used to the geometry but the first 100 miles have been quite fun so far!! Took a nice drive out from Houston via Louisiana up to Mississippi and came back with this beauty! Meet Sophia La Scura - already keeping my Norge good company in the garage here! Custom plate on order: Scuzzi - a little "play" on words here...I'm sure Scura owners will get it!
