  1. Yeah, they are beginning to bring bigger bucks.
  2. That sounds like Redline shockproof heavy. Maybe you lucked out, and won't need to do anything. The thing about this oil is it is so tenacious it will really stick to gears. When you drain it, all of it won't come out. Then.. if you fill it with the correct amount, the box will be over full. Don't ask me how I know.
  3. Another great adventure in the books.
  4. Truth be known.. you never know. Naturally, it *should* be on, but conjunctions of the moon's orbit with Venus sometimes cause it not to be. I think. Pay no attention..
  5. Fabulous, Scud. The best moto video I've seen. Thanks for taking the time to do it.
  6. Really, the 03 is well sorted from the factory. You may need a different map if using intake and exhaust mods. It's easy with GuzziDiag.. a wonderful tool. It's also a valuable tool for trouble shooting. We now have the ability to do this sort of thing that we used to have to go to the dealer and pay the big bucks for. It's free except for a donation to the developer. Don't waste your money on a spoofer. At worst it can make your bike run so rich it will wash down cylinder walls and cause unnatural wear.
  7. ^^^^^ sounds likely if it's been apart.
  8. I personally don't like starting fluid. Pull a plug. Is it wet? Yes/No. Pretty easy. Sounds to me that it's not getting fuel for whatever reason. How about the injection relay? It's the last one in the stack. (farthest aft) Replace it with a known good relay. Just switch it with another except the one next to it. That's the ECU relay.
  9. As I mentioned on WG.. it's obviously been kept by an enthusiast that loved on it.
  10. A local guy had a greenie with a Magni fariring for a couple of years. It was bad..
  11. ^^^^ I've had ice on the seat of the Centauro. If you're camping, you don't have much choice.
  12. Way cool, Scud. More, please..
  13. Try to have a good time, Scud.
  14. I'd stick it in there with something. Have you checked to see if it's dead or not? It doesn't care about fuel in the tube, it is a thermistor. Voltage warms it up, and if there is fuel around it, it stays cool enough to not turn on the light. As the fuel level drops, more of it is exposed, and the low fuel light will barely glow. The warmer it gets, the brighter the light will get until it is at full brightness. Make sense? The old fuel level sensors were nothing but an off on switch which drove you crazy. Many people unhooked them.
  15. Well, it's pressed into the plastic tube. It should be hard to move.
  16. ^^^^ I actually saw one of those once. It's even uglier in person.
  17. I've never seen that color. Kool.
  18. Welcome. You've already found the best source in the world. I'm not *that* familiar with the Cafe Sport, but isn't that the original configuration?
  19. I had to be competent in fiche to get my A&P license. The examiner knew some diabolical "gotchas.."
  20. No, the silver tip shouldn't move. That's the sensor.
  21. Thanks for taking us along..
  22. Piaggio response =
  23. If it's a 2003, you should be able to do it with the bent and ground nozzle. 2017-03-21_12-21-46 by Charles Stottlemyer, on Flickr
