  1. I'm running Royal Purple HFS 20W-50 in my flat tappet bikes. It's formulated for those.
  2. Nice one. Sometimes they slip through the hole at auctions. I bought mine that way for around $7k.
  3. High speed run on the Benelli on the Dragon Friday.
  4. Sort of related, I did get a friend to keep Lisa's Benelli company. All of 3 miles on it.
  5. About the only way I can get state maps is to visit a welcome center along the interstates.
  6. Any time you strap something down to a trailer (your bike, a lawnmower, your wife), you have to bless it with the words "That ain't going nowhere." Otherwise it might get loose.
  7. "That ain't going nowhere."
  8. Thanks, I tried to find this one but couldn't.
  9. How many dipstick pokes does it take to find the hole in a Roper plate? Is it the Guzzi equivalent of inserting a USB thumb drive correctly the first time?
  10. Changed leaking oil line to the oil cooler.
  11. https://youtube.com/shorts/EC9oNwN6rO4
  12. Remapped my 8V with a Beetle map. Getting 45 mpg or so on highway. Made a large difference in the power curve, pulls from near 2,000 rpm all the way up without any flat spots. Torquey beast, gets up and goes.
  13. Yep, and soft enough to bend an amazing amount if that small bolt is loose or missing.
  14. She was only running on the right cylinder. The left cylinder pipe was getting a little warm but not firing. Checked the spark and it was good. Only left fuel as the problem. Swapping fuel injectors to see if that fixes it. This bike is a Rosso Corsa project bike I got about a year ago. Just now getting into it due to illness. It's been repainted except for the tailpiece and seat cowl. Only parts that still have Rosso scheme on them.
  15. I found a sort-of easier way. Disconnected from the airbox and throttle bodies. Managed to get the upper and lower brackets off and out came the throttle body.
  16. Trying to get a LeMans up and going to bring but it may not be ready.
  17. At this point it looks like I'll be on my 2013 Norge with the leaky oil breather tube
  18. Looks like he patterned the 2007 bike after the Coppa lol. We've circled around.
  19. This is Gianfranco Guareschi's 2007 Daytona Battle of the Twins bike in his family's team colors, cant find a picture of the 2003 bike. I think the Coppa is patterned after them.
