  1. my reasoning is purely selfish, I'm an mm93 hater. sorry, I'll behave better.
  2. should we start a new MotoGP thread, without #93 as the headline?
  3. My #BB33 had two long lap penalties, and still placed 6th, nearly 5th until the last corner! Great race.
  4. This happened on my 2010 MG V7, replaced the connector, kept the old regulator, been good ever since.
  5. I read on Instagram this morning about a new dealer in Florida. https://www.motoplexdaytona.com/
  6. Pedro Acosta could be a threat, although not always do Moto2 and 3 winners make the transition well. Lorenzo commenting on Marquez' obsession with VR46 is rich. Both are dead to me after the 2015 season. I can't believe Dorna didn't condemn those two. As far as I'm concerned VR46 has 10 titles!
  7. I'm so anxious for U.S. talent to get back in!
  8. After becoming a believer on my dual sport, I keep defaulting to Kenda. I have repeatedly bought them now for a few years, with amazing value. I now have them on my KLX250 and my 2010 V7. When my V11 is in need, I'll start there again.
  9. I watch all of MotoGP on Sling, CNBC (news channel, I know, strange). It's only an additional $6 on my Sling package. For some reason, IndiaGP didn't air, or record or something, so frustrating! I only watched highlights on youtube. Looked like a good race and my fave, #33BB did a great job again!
  10. Having owned a V7 since 2012, I hung out at WildGuzzi mostly. I tried Guzzitech as well, but a few know-it-alls repeatedly pissed me off. I still visit from time to time. Todd, who runs GuzziTech is really the premiere Guzzi Guru. He's been at it a long time and has invested more time and money into them than any other private party I know.
  11. @Speedfrog Once I discovered this tool over 20 years ago, I use it for everything, clutch, brakes, cars, bikes, etc. It works so great, super easy.

  13. Looks decent to me, based on the trailer. I really liked Elvis, same lead actor.
  14. We bought this for the wife, helps a bunch. https://www.amazon.com/Motorcycle-Passenger-Adjustable-Non-Slip-Universal/dp/B0CB8MX12D I'm still hoping to take my extra seat to an upholstery shop and build into a much larger two-up seat taking the place of the entire rear cowl, also incorporating a back rest. Not sure if this will happen, but it was an idea and I've started gather pieces to move forward.
  15. Here in SoCal, I paid $5.57, nearly twice what it was a couple of years ago.
  16. You sure can. I placed grease in each gear drive, as well as a few drops of lube into the cable.
  17. I recently chased similar problems. Upon reassemble with new parts, it still did not work …then it did. It seems they lock into each other rather obvious, but I repeatedly didn't have them fully engaged, thus not working. I ended up replacing both 60° gear units and the cable during my troubleshooting, it was actually the speedo-side gear that was broken. Keep at it, you'll figure it out.
  18. Impressive, not sure where I'd even begin to construct a minature can of WD40!
  19. I will now fuel with Premium. It really made a difference. On my 25 mile ride home, I repeatedly punched it with no pinging at all, at any speed. Who knew? …not me.
  20. Okay, after getting off the exit from my drive to work today, I filled up and it took 5.6 gallons at 206 miles. I filled with Premium. I'll learn more on my 25 mile drive home, but cruising the 2 miles from the gas station to my office, I'll say it was better as it would normally ping (sounds like change rattling) when I punch it. It didn't do it after my fill-up. I'll try it a few more times on the freeway home, when it's hot outside too.
  21. I rode to work again today, taking the freeway entrance/exits at high speed, OH BOY! That is so fun, handling mucho better!
  22. I'm such a fan of F9, never missing any of their post. I've never feared from high RPMs on any bike. On most V11 trips, I cruise about 4000-4500, but have no problem when getting up to speed hitting 7000.
  23. We'll, I believe I'm finished with my blind-test. After numerous adjustments being tested during repeated 25 mile one-way trips to work, I've arrived at C6/R13 (counter-clockwise). My last ride home, felt better, more stable through turns. I'll leave it here and put repeated trips on the clock to see if results repeat. Having arrived at nearly the same place, I guess this is it, unless I want to spend money. If I were to spend money, I'm not even clear where to spend it.
  24. I rode about 100 miles or so, stopping often along the way to adjust both C and R. I've intentualy ignored how many clicks I'm selecting and instead am just concentrating on feel. More miles are needed, then I'll count the clicks and share my findings.
  25. Whoops, I never new it was intended to run Premium, only ever ran Regular. Next fill-up, I'll give Premium a try, and see if I notice.
