Afaik oil doesn't have to do with what height or weight is someone but with how well it will help all the inside components of the fork, to work properlly ,so your adjustments in comp,rebound, ect.ect. be effective.Use no other viscosity(and perhaps mark) than the ont that the constructor of the fork suggests.

AFAIK , and if I m well informed this is going to be the 1st in prouction Grizo numbered so , ect.ect, a highlly collectable piece.

Alpinestars is about as Italian as you can get.Perhaps but not a rule but, can be a bit cheaper than Dainese(yep Rossi and co. got to be paid from somebody in their endorsements), but in Quality are top of the bill IMHO better than Dainese for their price. I was in a shop and tried some dainese, appart from the fact that they didn't fit to me so well; (5.10'' with 44'' chest) in some expencive Dainese leathers I could see the leather had grainy look-quality and a bit hard, no, a real good quality leather has to be very smooth in touch and the softer in "shaping" the better (taking also in mind the thickness of it) Of course I have seen some top of the bill quality Dainese leathers but their price-features didn't excite me Style and fit though ,definatelly,is a metter of taste of cource, but be carefull guys you if you don't want to pay other people's endorsements IXS is also a new quality competitor on the market today, few others as well stated before.

A good idea is to inform ebay about it, they can stop it
-
Thank God, This one is gonna take the market of "clone" bikes by surprise. Stylistically IMO is a piece of art.

I dunno , stuf like these were also said about Biaggi back in '98, As I have read an interview there is much risk for a so big team such as Ferrari or McLaren to give a cockpit to a not experienced driver in Formula1.Rossi had tested in Fiorano a fast red achieving a 2-2.5 secs slower time than Schumacher.I guess that's pretty good but seems not enough.

All I get is "file not found" Can I have some too?? Thanks Paul check email
-
Alright,Alpinestars lth Jacket,pants and gloves arrived at correct size as ordered and in ,fast, time as well,I couldn't be more satisfied and so I ordered some more. Yes I'm nuts but 2 is better than 1(in such case) plus I got them half price of what it would cost to get them same here in a shop,plus have some different ones, so what the heck , lts roll the ball !!

Getting one of these V11- no front would give you any extra parts you'd need.Is only the front missing and the bike is claimed new. But it is in Europe and there are only few hours left( he doesn;t seem to ship outside Europe). Anyways , just mentioning it as is
-
Alright Paul, I like meeting Guzzisti , at least we have one passion in common to talk about or share.Never been in the Netherlands so far. Think of moving my a$$ and the bike in a couple of weeks or so. Doupt aif I d be the 16thSept in Mandelo, would you ? Cheers

I use Iridium on mine. Have not noticed any power increase, or it should be very slightly,Ignition is better and a small economy of 2-5% on fuel that is for sure at least on mine
-
Yep I have noticed that on my 1100i sport , Well a small tip is to keep cleaning and rub them over with a thin layer of Vaseline (or Silicone) every week or so to preserve their lifetime for longer.I changed mine before 10K km and still are OK with this treatment.,
-
Nice to hear that mate that's so good up there in the North.May ae well visit up thear next month (hopefully I'll be on the road) Here in Greece is one of the same only the degrees were higher so far 32-38 highest temps all the times.
-
Well as far as ALPINESTARS goes and ICON, If you do ebay here is one seller that has got these in incredible prices. FLYING BRIAN shop I have ordered and paid last Monday a Alpinstars jacket, a pair of pants and some gloves (a total of over $640 inkl. postage), asked EMS postage and the packet has just arrived to the post office here in Greece in 4 days. As soon as I get it on my hands I'll post a report to you more if you are interested. His service so far IS excellent , and I am waiting forward to get the clothes and complete my opinion about it. I'll order a couple of stuff more i guess if everything is OK.Even paying overseas EMS express postage the prices remain a steal. Kushitani are top notch and so do the Alpinestars as well. . Actually ,to my opinion,Alpinestars motorcycle clothes, have one of the best styling and quality on the market

Is this a MISTRAL silencer at the bike??
-
I don't make any compromise with my oil for my baby 1100i Sport Corsa. There is only AGIP 20-50 RACING -full synthetic. OR the MOTUL 300V Competition FULL SYNTHETIC 15-50, to run inside her engine. DO NOT comprimise with Oil , it is the food of the motor, would you like eating bad quality food or food substitutes??
-
Wait a minute people as I see from the description this problem on the heads is about defect of wrong work on the parts that they came out AS IS now from the company.Not a result of a wrong service OR not having service in time. False constructed parts should be changed from the company hands down, it's their fault at the first palce , shouldn't they?
-
I'm not sure if I go this year though I plan to visit Mandelo sometime. I hope that next year GMG happens then I have an idea that when or if happens can make a interesting surprise to all people who like arts and Guzzis (or one of them at least )
-
There are some beautifull bikes out there and many can give a run for their money. At the other side there are basic stuff(OK that's me ) as service and parts that make me stay with the Guzzi. Besides none else has the Golden Eagle on
-
First of all get well soon and have always the mind and the luck to stay away from situationts like these. Been myself some time in the past and I know its really awfull. Anyway here are some links so moght help finding what you want REBOOT GUZZI There are plenty of used parts for bikes. MOTO MECCA Spares They have some stuff as well. AGOSTINI I have to mention Agostini's place.Less than 300m from the factory in Mandelo they sure have what you may need, If they don't then it won't be so hard for them to find it for you. Stein Dinse THis is German but they speak English and somewhere in the site you'll find Englsh translation and so on. Click on news and continue.They have A LOT of everything AFAIK there is a department in USA email them to ask what you need. DB-CyclesThis one is on ebay well ebay is another source of finding parts , but they're not always there when you need them so this is sth to be done on free time. CORSA ITALIANA English site , never tried it before , seem to have many accessories as well, Try it out WebBikeWorld Many infos , artikles, you name it as well other interesting links, not a seller's site but something it might get you there as well. Hope these help to find what you need and all the best for a good recovery in all

Hey Rob check mail , if you didn't get any PM me.
-
It has to do with the cut (no alcohol to heal faster) and the fact that after that small opperation I take some medicine as well....ooops I forgot time to get this pill...
-
Wow why would a bike would need replacemet in so often periods of time, I never heared of it (well except on some racing bikes concidering they're on track on constant basis) Who did this head job ?(....LMAO...) I mean the work on the cylinders?
-
Can't help you with that mate since I don't have this bike. You can concider yourself lucky for having a bike like this but at the other hand I wouldn't want to be in a position like this. My best support-wishes for overcoming this problem, seems that you're near that. It's not that bad and it will be fixed I believe so don't worry Would also be doing some Italo -Germany and around time, next month as well (concidering things go in the right flow they are).Can arrange to meet if the time is right and you're in a mood At the moment I am nailed home with an injured finger (bad cut)and waiting to get out.(not allowed to drink either )
