  2. When I installed these shims a couple of years ago they worked great and then they eventually started to loosen up. I put some high temp sealer on them which worked for a little while and then I lost one of the shims, so Todd sent me another one. But even with the high temp sealant they do not work at all. Any suggestions?
  3. When mine broke I had to disassemble the speedometer to get the broken bits off. After seeing how crappy the stock knob is, I decided to make my own. No troubles since. Cool. Any interest in making more?
  4. Don't get me wrong because I love how the tranny shifts on my 03 Rosso and the Norge, but there is nothing like the pull from the 5 speed on my Daytona RS.
  5. A friend of mine has the louder Mistral on his Norge and it sounds great plus it seems to add a little more power compared to my stock Norge. Only problem is the popping at off throttle which is not too bad on the stock bike but quite loud(as in small caliber hand gun loud) with the Mistral. Hopefully, someone will come up with a solution for this problem so until then I will keep with the stock muffler. t

  7. What, no Lemmonhead patch? Oh thats right, you had a Monza.
  8. If you can get one that incorporates food in the logo, Dave would be even happier. bc
  9. Is there really a hood in Suffolk County, Longguyland?
  10. Last time I was in there the salesman was respectively insulting to Guzzi's so I am not too surprised at this development. They had one good Guzzi mechanic when the place first opened and he has since left the company. FBF or Rockwell are your options.
  11. This is sort of embarassing but I can not seem to find the photo since our recent move out of the city. I just sent off an email to my club partner from back in the day to see if he still has a copy of the picture. Can't imagine that the wife disposed of that classic....... The Filmore East is now an apartment building and the front lobby was turned into a bank. There are some great photo's of the theater in its Bill Graham/Filmore East days and its original creation as a Jewish theater. NY City kept posting signs after sixth st was re-named Bill Graham Way but as soon as they went up they were stolen.
  12. Sniff.....I moved to NYC in 76 to go to art school and lived a couple of blocks away from CBGB's. I got to see Television,Talking Heads,B-52's,Ramones,Pere Ubu,Sid Vicious,etc. and lost some of my hearing in the process. I have a photograph of Wendy-O from the Plasmatics in a clear vinyl dress singing her heart out while squeezing her nipple. Right after that she pulls out a double barell shot gun and empty's the chamber into the ceiling. Scared the shit out me......wild times. Sad to see it go.
  13. Are you talking about Eric(Guzzi Man)? What exactly is the problem with the bike? Your other choice is to get it up to Branchville Motors or Marsh Cycle in Conn. Tom

    Todd, Normally, I would say that you are right but the water in that part of the Atlantic is so cold that a dip in the water is quite refreshing. Plus, you can escape from the most disgusting smells that one encounters while walking the streets in NYC after a few 95 to 100 degree days. Yuch. Tom
