  1. from Czech replublic , ignitech makes an affordable solution that can use the cam sensor. http://www.ignitech.cz/english/aindex.htm
  2. My box has done quite a lot km with my 1225cc 4v engine, no problems outside the spring.
  3. a friend just bought a new folgore 2 month ago, leftover at a dealer.
  4. why not the seat thing too? I never liked the duotone thing
  5. most easy is to remove engine and gearbox. Move them to the front. I posted pictures before, somewhere here: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/pics.php
  6. well I manage 6 liter on 100km , If you change the dash reading, you can see what it does on yours. But that is with country touring, when I do short drives or long high speed drives it gets worse.
  7. that daytona is the non realistic thing from oberdain bezi, nothing to do with guzzi. I think its just a jap with guzzi engine
  8. Take a stelvio, throw most away and have this: Bigbore 140 hp, 180 kg:
  9. the sportbike Guzzi should have build? Now build by Ghezzi, working for Millepercento http://www.millepercento.it/
  10. In the dutch forum we have several owners, one has done 30.000km until now. No problems there. Mine has only done 5500km in a month. But I'm happy.
  11. No other then making the rear hard, but my doesn't like that.
  12. well go to a hydraulics shop, there are conversion rings to put in between. Or get one made by someome rr racing could be a german firm http://www.reichert-racing.de/shop/ they are new
  13. with the spring broken I could downshoft, and ended up in first gear, no fun driving in hot weather, when the engine gets to hot because no cooling.
  14. fuel consuption between 6 and 7 liter/100km. Not only on the BC but calculated at the pump too. Luggage? the topcase and small tankbag were enough to be on the road with two, a week long. No tents, only hotel.
  15. well, I've done 5000km now. i'ts very comfortable. With 2 on it too. My wife has been on the back for 2500km, she likes it. Best bike she has been on. Problems until now: - after a night in the rain in Mandello, the tacho sensor failed. After almost a day driving it started working again. I kow known problem, stupid is that the dash gives an alert and nothing works anymore. - Some spillover gas has left it's dark marks on the gastank. When driving with two, the headlights shine to high, and made some cardrivers real pissed, especially the one in Pisa in a Panda... .
  16. In germany a few with road conversion are for sale for 24k euro
  17. Well, in the country where 70 mph is fast, the old one will do I suppose. I can remember to have seen a mgs01 in the UK for 17K gbp. And that was when 1 pound = 1 euro. Now it will cost 22k euro.
  18. We are back and had a great time. I Started in Eindhoven, and went through Germany in 2.5 days to Milan. There I met my wife, who came by train to Milan. We went to Fbike for the first service, what all went well. During the service we visited the center. After that we took the autostrada to Bologna, where we visited the center and had lunch. After lunch we took the sp65/ Strada regionale della Futa. Very nice road but took a lot of time, and we ended that day in the dark in Stia, in Hotel Faltorona, where we got their room with painting on the ceiling. The next day, we went to Perugia where we had lunch, and after that to Assisi. There it was real hot, and we went to our goal the Hotel Montali, south form lago Trassimeno. There we cooled in the pool, and had a great dinner. Unfortunately we had to leave the next day to Pisa where my wife should take the plane home. But during the day she decided to stay with me and travel the whole way home at the Stelvio backseat. I shorthand the route for the next day, and we took the ss12 from Pisa to Modena, a very nice road. After that I had planned to cross the Po valley, what wasn’t such a good idea. Roads full with trucks and cars, not something to come back too again. We ended that day in Mandello, where all Hotels were booked. So we slept at the camping in Abbadia Lariana. The next day was to cross the alps, and started direct with rain, and it was cold too. The Majola and Julierpass were nice. The holiday was one we will never forget, and we planned to come back to Montali for more days. http://www.montalionline.com/ The Stelvio did its job well, only the speedosensor didn’t work after some rain in the night. A known problem more Stelvio and Griso have. And some spilled gas over the paint from the gastank has left its brown marks. The Stelvio has proved to be a good touringbike, also with two people, and that’s why I bought it. The trip was 3500km, and with a small trip this weekend it now has 5000km done. A special thanks for Calidreaming who communicated between me and Guareschi, where in the beginning I planned to do the service, but it didn’t fit in the travel schedule, so I went to Fbike.

  19. I just got a Garmin Zuno, and thought it was nice to have all dealers in europe as Poi available, so when needed during a trip, you can always find the nearest. So I collectred some files, made some self, and modified others. Here is the result: http://www.mgcn.nl/dameijer/Garmin-GPS-bestanden If you have countrys that I don't have I would like to add them, send them and everyone can use them.
  20. The mgs has a cush in teh wheel. The housing from the gears is only missing the outer ring, a difference in looks but only 200 grams weight. I know because I did the same to my hub. Gearing at the hub is the same. The MGS has a larger primary gearing. The rest is the same as v11.
