  2. Various goodies for sale. All prices negotiable, it's hard to find comparable prices - so make an offer. If I overpriced something, show me where you found it for less. I will pass on the actual cost of shipping. Moto Guzzi rear rack new in box, no longer available. Paid $119 over a year ago when Harper's had a special lot available. Never used, but the black rack braces have been powdercoated flat black. SOLD Heated grips and bar risers. Both items freshly installed, and I believe never used. Grips are by Oxford. $90 for new. I'd like $60 for these. Bar risers include: clamps (to fork tubes), chrome bars, heavy bar-end weights, extra-long brake and clutch lines. For comparison, MPH cycles sells clamps and brake lines for $399. SOLD Top Case and Rack This is a large Hepco Becker top case in good shape. It has the back rest and the optional metal rack on top. It attaches to a metal plate, which is on the rear rack. I think the rear rack is by Stucci - it's the beefy one that attaches solidly to the subframe and takes more weight than the Moto Guzzi rack. Top Case Sold. Rack only: $75. Tekno Panniers and Racks Structurally sound, although a bit faded. One zipper pull missing. I think these can be brought back to life with some black fabric spray paint. $150 for bags, racks and mounting hardware. FBF Crossover This is in near-new condition, but was used some. This crossover is far lighter than stock, but does not have a place to attach the hanger. I'm running one on my LeMans with the Titanium exhaust. SOLD Titanium Kit Racing Exhaust These are used. Presentable, with some wear as shown in photos (mostly where the straps attach). I do not have the high footpeg brackets or the kit racing ECU. This is for the pipes and hangar straps only. Asking $600.
  3. 4 years ago, I noticed that the Mistral decal on my left muffler was much more faded than the right. Thinking it might be heat related, I started feeling the "tailpipes" after riding. The right side I could touch for 2 or 3 seconds before becoming painful, but the left side was really hot. I couldn't hold my fingers on it at all. So, I bought a Carbtune Pro and balanced the throttle bodies. No change. Next I bought a Power Commander and installed a map from their website for stock airbox, stock crossover and Mistral Cans, which was my setup. No change. Then I bought an infrared thermometer to see just how much hotter the left cylinder was than the right. Surprisingly, they were about the same. The big temp difference was only at the aft portion of the exhaust system. I had read on these forums accounts of owners who cut apart the stock crossover, and found inside a baffle plate and some sort of wire wool, as it also functions as a pre-muffler. Thinking that something was amiss in the guts of mine, I replaced it with a Mistral crossover, and changed the PC map accordingly. Now the temp of the tailpipes are the same, and much cooler. Even after a long ride, I can now hold my fingers on both sides indefinitely without getting burned. It seems likely to me that something inside the stock crossover shifted to cause uneven flow through it. All along, the bike ran well. Its louder now, with the Mistral crossover, and maybe a bit torquier at the lower revs. Also it used to spark knock a little under sudden load at middle rpms, which has subsided. So if others here notice that one side is much hotter than the other, it might be because of the stock crossover. Edit: I forgot to mention above that I keep an eye on valve clearances, which I suspected initially. I run .006 & .008, same as my old BMW. I made the above changes over a period of 2 or 3 years, as money permitted. They were mostly things that I wanted to do eventually anyway, and am glad that I no longer have to worry that the left cylinder seemed to run much hotter than the right.
  4. I recently purchased this crossover for my '04 Ballabio off eBay. Unfortunately, the seller did not know the brand and anticipting that I will need to know for the purpose of programming a Power Commander, I thought I would ask if any one here knew. Thanks!
