'til I get some photos sorted later, at the weekend

Is the full stop final?

Owee. I hope Jaap has big insurance on these pages. That lot at Mild Guzzi must have swiped them. They'll roll them up and use them to light their pipes. Outrageous!

I'm sure I posted a few pics from last May's Ulster meet. Can't find 'em. Looking in 24/7, I see only 2 pages of Topics! Two whole pages Is that everyone sees? According to the index page there are nearly 4,000 Topics in this section.

Don't think that I ever did post pics from the Ulster? Only a couple, maybe? Must get some up later, as the winter draws in. A shiver runs down his spine, as Fergal has a premonition of what Frenchyland would later do to his hapless Tenni EDIT I'm sure I did post photos, but where are they?

Pic from Wikipedia GB is a kangaroo?

I can't even remember 2 minutes ago! - unless there are chicken goujons involved.

That said, all modern EFI bikes are now held hostage to their state of battery "wellness;" Skeeve, I agree, but I'm sure that the whole rash of starting problems experienced with the newer bikes is not because of the battery charge itself. Certainly the wellness of the grounding should be checked and additional provision made. I still need to do that myself. Also, the additional feed, as in the post above (not the chicken goujon one, the other one). Hubert has kindly re-posted the link.

Well, this morning I went to an important seminar. It was so boring that I left at lunch time, but not before having lunch: chicken sandwhich chicken goujons mini sausage roll thing on a stick, with chicken in it more chicken goujons coffee and one or two other things. Walked back to work and I'm here now. Would you like a further update?

What about a bidet? It would be particularly popular with the Continentals. (And after all, Bill Hagan has a urinal.)

How to turn your V.11, or your Guzzirider, into a .... spud gun http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpAJOPzKK-M 1) Take your discarded Griso OE exhaust can.......

You'll have all kinds of crap without it. I wash out & regrease sometimes - i needs it. I refit using a load of grease & just clean off the excess. NO, no. Not a 'tipo'. A rear washer is a 'bidet'.

I doubt it

Starting problems with the newer bikes are now well documented. Seems to be a common problem, although your bike is somewhat older. My Griso suffers too. Actually, it is me who suffers. Push the starter and often nothing at all happens: sometimes it works after a few more prods. Sometimes it takes minutes, 10 minutes, or once it never started and I had to leave the bike. Ridiculous and infuriating. The best explanation is voltage drop, on the newer bikes anyway. I haven't checked the schematics but others say that Guzzi are still continuing with their practice of putting the full current up through the start switch. On the newer bikes, a heavier gauge wire down to the starter becomes a lighter thin wire. Significant voltage drop has been measured, as I understand it. A solution would be to put in or parallel in a new wire of good gauge. It could be the same thing with Antonio's bike.

See the screenshot file attached. I do love it each time I open the V11 site and I see this before me. I realise I risk the wrath of Guzzirider, should he react as Ratchet did in a similar circumstance. I was often tickled when a Topic summary, where R.Hack was the last poster, showed something like, 'The best gun for shooting... Ratchethack'. That's what it said folks, but he couldn't see the funny side and insisted that I had somehow fabricated the statement. At least Guzzirider's is 'on topic'. Topic subject, as displayed:
