Somehow they managed to hold The One Show this year despite all of the restrictions. Limited crowds just meant you had more room to look at bikes. My brother and I were analyzing the Cafe Sport and got to talk to the owner. He lives south of Portland (I have a feeling there were more local bikes than usual this year). He said the bike was quite corroded when he got it (I assume it came from the coast) and he took it apart. Well, he did a damn fine job putting it back together. I need to find an abandoned Cafe Sport just to steal the suspension off it. I hope he sees this post and provides more details. I'll post a few photos and then provide a link to the photo dump. https://imgur.com/gallery/jfYuuar

That just means you spend more on Guzzi parts than your laptop.

Mike does an incredible job putting out the videos. There is a wide variety of bikes presented so if you like interesting motorcycles you should subscribe. I can guarantee more Guzzi content.

I'm neither Norwegian nor thunderous.

If I posted this before I apologize. I tried to search for it. Last year my buddy Mike did a series of interviews at his cul de sac during the pandemic. It was extremely popular and this was one of my contributions.

I apologize for the other motorcycles in the video. I hope you’ll forgive me.

Is it possible to use the V7 thermistor with the V11?

Recently all I've been doing is pushing the Guzzi out of the way so I could work on the other bikes. I still manage to sneak out for a ride the other day between rain showers.

If you haven't been you you have to go. Plus you're so close!

It could be worse, in order to log into Wild Goose you have to have a steam powered computer, no electricity is allowed.

For me the screws stripped before the aluminum did. Which either says a lot about the Italian aluminum or something not so nice about the Italian SS.

I wouldn’t. But that’s just me.

Snuck out for a short ride this afternoon. It’s been raining for a while so the sun was a nice change. This store closed a while ago but it use to be a nice stop along the way to get some snacks and ethanol-free fuel.

Pictures!!!!!

Please do. I might even make it over to Bend and visit Spoken Moto on my bike too.

A light Italian roast with Norwegian cream please. I haven’t ridden this poor bike since I sold the Ducati. Hopefully I’ll get out on it more this winter.

As soon as you got going enough to scrub off the rust?

I suspect it may have been a little surface rust on the flywheel. It's not moist and cold in Dorset is it?

Before pulling off the slave I'd confirm that's the area the sound is coming from.

If that's what you suspect then just put something in the case to pad it. I had to do that with one of my low end cameras.

Yes, very sad. But we enjoyed it frequently while it was here.
