i doubt the mirrors are made for Guzzis. You'll need to make some adjustments to make them work.

As soon as I get the bike back home I'm going to see how my Norton fairing fits. It's similar to the SFC but a little different.

PM sent

It's snowing in Northern California and Southern Oregon. That would have made for a highly unpleasant ride. Just taking the relays, the other stuff is Molex parts for the 850-T.

Already in a sealed bag and bubble wrap never to be used again!

That's what I was thinking too.

And yet people claim to have done it.

Oh, you gave only 5 digits.

Sleep is for the weak.

Ok, my current packing list: Rain Gear (we had 70mph winds here today. So glad I wasn't flying out today!) 3 pairs of gloves (summer, spring and winter, this is Oregon and you can have all three seasons in one afternoon!) Rok Straps RAM mounts (yes, two, one that can bolt to the mirror/clutch perch and another that can mount in the steering stem http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19070) Relays (FIVE Omron so I don't have to hear from docc when I hit a bump and pop a relay) Battery Tender cable (current owner doesn't believe in battery tenders, thinks that if you need one you don't ride enough. Obviously doesn't live in Oregon!) ​Battery Tender extension (to run power to the RAM mount) Battery Tender to USB adapter Battery Tender Voltage Meter (the battery is a couple years old so I need to see how strong it is) Multimeter Allen Wrenches Cresent Wrench (Small) Zip ties! Safety Wire (for when zip ties just aren't enough) Duct Tape (for when zip ties and safety wire isn't enough) Go Cruise (the aluminum one because the plastic ones break) ​Spare bag so I can offload some stuff to the rear rack. ​All this plus clothes and other stuff going into my Velomacchi backpack. It's going to be loaded! ​It should look interesting going through the TSA checkpoint with this stuff...

And how big is the hole? 1/4 in?

Thanks. I'm mostly interested in hearing someone say that it does work and what's under that cap (which I still don't know, but I assume it's a hole?) but if the mount works I'm good with that. Thanks!

Does the tank rub because it's swelled a little? Or does the plastic just distort after a while? If the wire doesn't cooperate easily I'll be fine. I can charge the phone in the tail while riding. I have one of the big old eyes phone so it holds a charge for a while.

I suspect I can remove the rear bolt and lift the tank enough to run the wire if there's enough play in the fuel line. As I run the phone as my GPS I'll want to have it handy.

Why do you have to remove the rear body panel to run the cable from the battery to the front?

Yes, I'm looking forward to taking it back up to Moto International just to visit. Were there any other warranties for that year?

According to some documents I got from the owner Moto International preformed some gearbox warrenty done in which they "replaced four internal parts". Any idea what that was?

I am NOT reading the service manual, let me repeat, I am NOT reading the service manual...

113617 Which puts it pretty close to Kiwi_Roy. With the last six digits isn't it pretty easy to guess the rest? Or was the 9th digit random? Looks like this one was right before they switched to the manual fuel tap (113816).

I'm still getting the build date and VIN. Trying to not bug the seller too much. One week to go. KILLING ME. Weather in the Bay Area turned to crap today. It was a good call not to go this week.

I contacted one of the fiberglass places. Trying to figure out how many they could sell.

Moto International has said that Givi has dropped them.

So it looks like Harpers and Moto International can't supply the Scura style fairing. But there are a couple places that could make the fairings. http://www.airtech-streamlining.com/vintage/vintagefairingsquarter.htm http://www.caferacingparts.com How many people would be interested?

Not if he used the purple Simple Green. Doesn't harm aluminum.
