Experienced my first main fuse meltdown today, but didn’t know about it before now. Must admit I ignored the red charging light during my fast ride today, because I was so eager to blow some steam off on a curvy road just north of my home. Indian summer, low traffic, mountain area, clear blue sky, man and machine become one. Nothing could stop me. Not even a red light. Well, at last it did. It caused the low fuel indicator to fail, so I ran out of fuel in some rural area... Later on the turn signal stopped working, and when the starter motor failed after filling fuel, I knew the battery was almost empty. Thank god I had spare fuses with me. The fuse holder was also pretty melted, but managed to replace the 30A fuse. A friend of mine came along, lucky me! Of course he had jumper cables and a multimeter. He’s a Harley driver. Can’t hardly wait to get the Greenie in the basement for winter, and start the big makeover. An 30A circuit breaker sounds like a good idea:) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Today i discovered I have a faulty fuel lamp! Stuck in the wilderness, waiting for my son and a can of gas. Indian summer in Norway today and all good. I also got a red lamp screaming at me most of my trip. Charging problem. That’s worse. Next week the Greenie is going to my basement for the winter and a full service. New rear tyre, new throttle house rubber on both size, new spark plugs, fuel filter, airfilter, changing oil and filter, gear oils, new Omron relays, etc etc. Wish me luck.

Hello folks! Here’s Mizz Greenie. My second Guzzi, and my first bike after 24 years hiatus. Besides Halycon bar-end mirrors and Mistral(?) mufflers with nice and deep sound, the bike is in stock condition. The winter is coming, so I have plans for some tuning and customization. Not radical changes, just one step at a time. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
