Elegant. Sensible airbox Phil

Something got lost in the translation. Phil

Not as many as you. Phil

I think different secondary pipes to get the higher angle. Phil

Just the golden colour they eventually go to after use. I have some pillion high mounts I think I can sell you if you need them. Phil

You need to get out more, lol. that's got no class or elegance at all. Ignoring the silly inlet trumpets I offer this as a much more classy exhibit. Phil

The ecu isn't necessary it will run fine on the std ecu mapping so don't pay for that. The last 2 images are the same setup with the high mount pillion pegs and adaptors. The images are taken at different angles and makes it deceptive. Phil

Just realised how similar elements of these songs are.

You dropped it on both sides? Phil

Some parts are interchangeable with BMW's Phil

Yes it will only work effectively if the throttle shaft isn't worn badly then you need to make your own bushes as you did. Ideally you shouldn't let the wear get to the point where the shafts are that bad. I have 3 sets of throttle bodies and all of them are fine shaft wear wise. I was made aware of the bush wear initially because the engine made a clicking noise at idle a bit like valve ticking from loose valve clearances until I grabbed the throttle shaft on the RHS cylinder and the noise stopped.

Here's something I just learned that might be of interest to all the Battery Geeks here, ahem docc are you there A restart feature. https://www.google.com/search?q=what+is+the+built+in+jump+start+battery+feature&oq=what+is+the+built+in+jump+start+battery+feature&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIJCAEQIRgKGKAB0gEJMTM4OTJqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

A blown radiator hose had you scuppered on the side of the road Mick...amateur . Thats what electrical tape is for. Tape up the damaged area, top off the radiator with the water you always carry with you and leave the radiator cap partially open so it doesn't pressurise the system and you're on your way again. I've done it a few times and it lasts a while in most cases. At worst to the next town where you can a least get a room for the night and consult the local garage. I crashed my first car as a teen in the main street of Paramatta in Sydney and the fan nicked the radiator core in a few places when the engine came forward , coolant everywhere. No worries. Some silastic and a couple of matchsticks jammed into the holes and the Rad cap only installed to the first click so system not pressurised and I was on my way home again. The cooling system doesn't need to be pressurised to work in the short term. Worked for me in a WSB race one time when we had a water leak across the head gasket. Finished the race fine but it dumped quite a bit of fluid in Park Ferme after the race. What's wrong with kids these days. It's a source of pride being able to do road side repairs. A totally lost art. Nothing brings a smile to my face like a Tesla owner stuck on the side of the road. I just cruise past thinking "call Elon"

Here's my latest tank cap. Titanium mount screws etc. I had the above Aprilia screw cap fitted for about 6 years or so before this one. Worked ok. Bit plain Jane but worked. Be aware that the flat body seal the Aprilia and all of these caps come with is Nitrile rubbish and will degrade and fall apart in a few years. I just bought some Viton/FKM sheet rubber of the correct thickness off fleabay and made my own. You can buy it in 100mm x 100mm squares of the desired thickness. Phil

The nipples are removeable. Phil

Speling, not my fort Phil

It does exist. https://www.jaycar.com.au/circuit-board-lacquer-spray-can/p/NA1002?srsltid=AfmBOooIOiwJEFgxR9MDQ2QNG0Xwu-E2653MgXqqdXuZnRR0qhZzoHYk Personally I'd be buying a spare ecu JIC. The other issue these 15M ECU's have is the Baro pressure sensor failing. Not a big deal if you live at seal level and don't ride into the mountains. You'll know it's failed via Guzzidiag if it shows dashes in the baro readout screen or if the bike starts acting a bit flaky with significant altitude changes . Phil

I'm mulling over one of these. Shipping is the killer. https://modernspare.com/product/2019-2024-toyota-supra-spare-tire-kit-options/

Here's a bunch of home made Guzzi/Ducati tools except for the blue one and the deep socket black one. I "think" the ring nut one is the chrome 4 prong one. It's 1 and 1/8 inch and a but rough I'll admit but a lot of these were pre milling machine home made. They only need to do the job once a lot of the time so practicality overrides looks and longevity. Phil
