A well timed reminder. I needed a router bit that the usual suspects did not carry. I'll have it Wednesday.

New bars and relocated pegs. Looks clean.

Geez, you guys don't mess around. I couldn't do that without stopping for another meal.

I won't comment on why you have so many spares hanging around...nope, not gonna do it.

Interesting @docc, looks like mine is the longer one.

If @gstallonscan't find one, I have one.

Glad you did the road test and all those calcs...too much figuring for me though. I took the easy way out. I judged the book by its cover.

Because there aren't many bikes as beautiful. Pretty simple for me.

I've been known to dabble...

I like driving with the windows open and adjusted properly to limit wind noise around town, not at highway speeds. I like resting my arm on the door sill. Easy to do on my 2007 Chevy pickup but very uncomfortable on newer cars because of the higher belt line. Car designs have changed over the last decade or so and sleekness trumps convenience. Tiny ribbons of glass seems to be the trend now.

I knew that was coming. I should've said like the two hybrids in my garage.

Could be because of the exhaust note. My Stelvio sound pretty nice with the GPR pipe, the new one sounds like a Toyota.

I have a 2012 NTX. I drove the new Stelvio, decided I liked my old one better.

@audiomickI'm very clear on why the pressure needs to be handled, just don't understand why a line that is connected directly to the sump has to be part of it. My older Ducatis just had a black rubber hose that came from the top of the crankcase and was strapped to the frame under the seat. Maybe that system is ancient now, but it worked very simply. Why the oil line is part of this system now is what I question. I'll stop beating a dead horse.
