  1. Wow, an honest-looking "motorcycle!" Good to see you about, @st. augustine!
  2. "I don't know where all those old records went, Granma. Oh, you like the new Lamborghini ? " "It'll turn >78< all day long" . . . .
  3. This was a particularly challenging photo-collage to select a single favorite. Yet, I chose this one. Certainly for the captivating character depicted, gelato in hand, but made ever more curious by the story behind the fleeting donna misteriosa in the background . . . and that longing look .

    No motorcycles allowed in the "bicycle shed?"
  5. New theme . . . this song broke the mold back in 1968. No more 3:51 time limit. Longest (greatest?) drum solo ever? Thirty-six years later (twenty years ago!) in The Netherlands: "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida", baby ! (makes me want to call mySport "the Iron Butterfly " ) . . .
  6. [docc merged the threads to combine the details with the photos.] Best of luck placing the Sport with an eager new owner. Let's be aware that @SLtrek has been a member here since 2005 even though he has not posted much.
  7. Looking forward to hearing how it goes with the relay change. Otherwise, we will soldier on!
  8. With the battery 12.85, your voltage ate the fuel relay is still 12.09? That's a lot of voltage drop. Is the relay voltage the same as that incoming to Fuse #2 (from the front)?
  9. I'm a big fan of High Current (right now: Picker Components) relays. Get the correct ones: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/picker-components/PC782-1C-12S-R-X/12352866
  10. What type battery is in it? Is that the voltage across the battery terminals, as well? For an AGM battery like the Hawker Odyssey native to the V11, 12.09v is quite dead and should be "conditioned." A fully charged AGM is 12.84v. This recovery cannot be accomplished on a low amperage "trickle" charger. Time to assess your battery and charging system . . .
  11. What is the tenth character in the VIN?
  12. See? Right there, "a pure and crystalline sanity."
  13. There is this smoke-containment magic (just don't get it on any of the waterproof seals) . . .
  14. Let's ask the other inmates on the ward if this represents a pure and crystalline sanity.
  15. Let's ask the other inmates on the ward if this really crazy.
  16. I have seen more Tyco failures in V11 than any other relay. Worth getting a full set (5) of High Current 5-pin relays and see if "problem solved." https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/picker-components/PC782-1C-12S-R-X/12352866
  17. What kind of relays are under the seat (especially in the last position #5)?
  18. Wrong place in Florida tonight could get you a Squid Tattoo . . . Such a Leonard Cohen vibe . . . . . . . so dark, mixed with too much real . . .
  19. The newest Moto Guzzi I can find on that Moto International/Seattle, Washington, USA, website is 2013 . . . Maybe our PNW members can help with the current status of this iconic Moto Guzzi dealer . . . Is it is, or is it ain't?
  20. If you come to Tennessee, those are the guys that will turn around to come back and help you jack up your blown out tire, jump off your dead battery, and give you water while they "keep the wolves away".
  21. These are OMRON G8HE 5-pin relays? Let's check that battery voltage and the connections beneath Fuses #1 an d #2 before going further (toward the Ignition Switch) . . .
  22. FWIW, I checked in with our friends in Tellico Plains, Tennessee, (location of the South'n SpineRaid) and all is well. Lots of rain from Helene, but no damage.
