  1. Andy, the 8v has a complete different layout. It has a double pump, one part is for the bearings, one part is for the heads. The oil cooler is in the circuit for the heads. So the connection for the cooler, is on the right side of the engine, ans the oil from the cooler goes to the heads. Look at the picture. MAybe the oil lines from the stelvio are good for relocation, look at a stelvio next to yours. You can use your cooler I think.

  2. Good thing that you started to loose some weight. I have seen a number of guys having diabetes, all are way to heavy.

    I had the same idea, gained 5 kg last year, and felt that couldn't go on. So I started loosing weight, have lost 7 kg so far. Pretty easy I must say. Now it's going slower. But I'm feeling much better now.

     

    What I did:

    - only one glass alcohol a day

    - nothing after evening meal

    - no cookies or sweet

    - one dish less at evening meal

     

    Eating vegetarian helps too, but I do that for 30 years.

  3. No Pete, the mgs has a chain oilpump setup, the same as the v11.

    I sometimes run my engine to 9000, only on the track where it is usefull to take it a bit higher, just before the next corner is there, easyer then shifting fo the few meters.

  4. Ok... who can give me the skinny on upgrading the "skinny" rear of the V11 sport (red-frame) with a V11 Lemans fat tire? Here's something else... the V11 sport has silver wheels, so what are folks doing to come up with the fatter rims in silver? It looks like the fat rims would fit the Sport, right?

    Thanks,

    -Kevin

     

     

    it just fits in, no work or parts required.

  5. well no diagram, what is a big difference between a-kit and c-kit, is the lift. Thats why a a-kit cam can't be made in a c-kit.

     

    Daytona/Centauro

    intake closes 57° 30' after BDC.

    exhaust open 49° 30' before BDC

    exhaust Closes 12° 30' after TDC

     

    Daytona RS, c kit

    intake closes 69° 30' after BDC

    exhaust open 63° 30' before BDC

    exhaust closes 28° 30' after TDC

     

    MGS01 minibook

    Intake opens at 36° before TDC

    Intake closes at 69° 30' after BDC.

    Exhaust opens at 64° before BDC

    When I get cams in, I can see if I can make a diagram. With a head on the table.

     

    I have different cams in now(Dynotec), somewhere between a and c kit. Good for the road.

  6. Thanx Pete...These are the things i can work with! Like i said...i'm not going for the red zone / 9000 revs! I didnt know that the C kid cams still were avalable!!!

    I have the C kit ecu here but that nothing more than the normal ecu with a different mapping?

     

    Correct, the mapping is the difference. C kit cams might not be available, but mgs01 cams are. And cheaper then the c kit ones. I just ordered a set to see if they deliver them.

    From aprilia you can get spare seals, they have them numberd in the rsv parts lists. I'm shure the non radial ohlins in aprilia is the same, maybe the radials too.

  8. 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.

  9. The Aquila Nera term is a black Matt style feature for the California, Bellagio and Nevada.

     

    I'm looking forward to the new Daytona!!
