Hi Chuck,
Took some pictures this morning…this is what I have available.
Mike had replaced it with a single plate California steel clutch assembly, was particularly hard to find…but he was able to locate one.

What Guzzi should offer is a high interest leasing program to the skeptical ones here, so that those who don't want to keep it, can ride it for 2 or 3 years, enjoy it and then turn it in and not worry about stashing parts for 10-20 years down the road in case you didn't care to keep it longer. That should do away with all of the pooh poohing of the new bikes.

If I'd had MPH that close they would have done my clutch for sure
100%...Mike at MPH swapped out my clutch/flywheel on the Scura...nice not to have to worry about it grenading in the future. I've got the original in my garage if anyone wants it for an experiment of some sort...pay shipping and it's yours!

So many movies with chases through Paris
Speaking of car chases...one of the best in Paris was in Ronin with Robert DeNiro and Jean Reno (another great French actor).

So great to see you here Rodrigo and huge congratulations on a stunningly beautiful Centauro! What a wonderful small world it is!
Look forward to seeing you again at one of the Guzzi rallies one day, you’ll find quite a few fellow Guzzisti in your area too!
The guys on the Guzzi forums are an absolute treasure trove, fulL of humor and great info!

Two titans of film…enjoyable in many settings.

Black would look good…

You missed your chance to see Charlie Watts one last time though...
True…I was lucky to see them here in Houston in 2019! What a show!!

The damage from Fred looked really nasty around Cruso area, I saw the Blue Ridge Motorcycle campground got completely washed away...I wanted to visit that on the trip out. I hope they'll rebuild!
Hope Tellico and surrounding areas stay clean and rideable for the raid!

Cogito ergo sum! I love it!
I buy Moto GP tickets on the day I arrive...and just pick what's available then, been enough times to know where to hide out and find good spots!
I do still have my Stones tickets from buying them back in 2020, I just held on to them w/o requesting a refund thru Ticketmaster, so they roll to the upcoming show in November!
Luckily Texas doesn't have a state income tax...so they only get my sales tax dollars on the Black's BBQ in Lockhart!

Makes me wonder if they'll cancel the MotoGP race in Austin? My attendance probability has gone down to fractions.
Probably not going to Dusty's campout in Kansas next week. The last campout there was in early May and it seemed so much more safer then.
Quit jinxing it! It's a long ways away...repeat after me 3 times with feeling and enthusiasm!
I will be, at Moto GP! I will be, at Moto GP! I will be, at Moto GP!

Hi all,
I just bought a 1997 Centauro, low miles and heard about this "mythical" Will Creedon full injection chip. I read this post and sent a PM to a couple of you to see if I can get one. Any help appreciated, thank you.
Is this Rodrigo? Too much of a coincidence if it is!

Hell yes! Can't wait to see pictures up close!

Pains me to update that I won’t be headed out to join the festivities this time…can’t get enough time off now as originally planned.
I hope everyone has a wonderful time and I look forward to the making the next one!

Hot pipes near your legs…how does that make any sense at all even with a heat shield and wrap?

Fabulous! Thank you…that’s the one. Now to figure out the process…Guzzidiag is easy to use, so hopefully this hunt for 157 Millivolts will be as well.

Is there a part # for this Casper cable or a link of where to buy gents?
I have my Guzzidiag cables, done everything on the Norge, Griso and Scura, but this 157 millivolt check on the TPS. I have a good voltmeter, but I keep reading the process over and over and can't really figure it out just yet, but since I don't have the Casper wires to do it just yet, might as well get those and then see if the volts are in line with what they should be!
Thanks!

Agree on buying tickets on the spot...Turn 1 is fun...but slow around, so not much "leaning at speed"...generally it's just Marquez running a 3-5 second differential to #2 as he crests turn 1, and the next guy is making the turn way the heck down at the beginning of the grandstand straightaway.
I do enjoy the stands where you can see turns 13/14/15/16...

Hardly an appropriate analogy, Guzzi isn’t peddling junk or artery clogging bits! If it is drawing new riders to the brand and existing ones to loosen their purse strings, that’s a good result. It isn’t exactly falling apart either, so by what measure other than preferred specs is it a failure?
i suppose when it starts suffering major recalls and pieces start to fail it can be called for its shortcomings.

Is the Griso 8v motor not the same as the 8v motor in the Stelvio and Norge ?
Same one indeed….I believe they are all tuned the same…but the professionals here can confirm…

Ha! Did the same today as well! Nice day for a run in the forest on the Griso…oodles of power…a bit more of a handful on the sweepers, but very long legged and fun to ride!

Classic Italian humor!

Almost...as I posted above...GRIT = Guzzi Riders in Texas. I've never seen Tex or Beaver serve grits at our GRIT rally, but Tex does make some amazing banana/walnut breads for breakfast, and Prescott and team usually help out with a very generous pasta lunch/dinner. You won't leave hungry that's for sure...it is Texas after all!
Speaking of grits...the other day, I had some Gouda Grits...simply amazing combo.

OK, Let's unpack this.
1. COTA is always a rip-off IMO, this year is even worse. I think they may be talking about premium parking vs bike coral parking vs standard free parking....but I don't know. Just as bad are the hotel and lodging prices in A-town. What is COTA direct?
2. The back to back weekend was meant for COTA MotoGP and then the Okla Guzzi Campout the following weekend that Paul and I usually attend.
In fact, the Moto GP weekend is also the same weekend as the GRIT RALLY...Guzzi Riders in Texas, up in Lindale. But since Oklahoma rally is on the calendar already, I'd rather go to Moto GP 1st weekend of October, and then Oklahoma rally the following weekend. If Moto GP gets cancelled, I may do the GRIT rally, it's an easy 200 miler up from Houston, and Oklahoma is another 200 miles north of that.

Nothing more exciting than a new toy! Early Xmas present...enjoy! Maybe you can "sweeten" the incentive for the shop to work on a Sunday or two...several boxes of donuts or kolaches or whatever their favorite snack is might bring you forward in the work queue. Have fun!
