ive got a throtlemaster on my aluminum and like it on the highway but it is a true pain in the butt in an emergency situation as in deer which there are a lot in my neck of the woods so i never use it from dusk on

Greatly enjoy this thread and it brought me to a question that i will non the less soon resolve. has anyone road the ohlins vs the white power suspension,,ie centauro and 1100i. ive got a v10 and switched the tires to the new avon storms and i LOVE the way it handles. ive recently struck a deal on a scura but wont have the bike for a few weeks. just curious of others opinions of the comparison of the two.

Well I've taken the plunge into v11 territory and had a few questions and thought this would be a great resource to get some answers. A little background on the bike 2002 v11 sport scura i am the third owner first owner put 3,000 miles on the bike and by the sounds of it ,(second owner new first owner), maint was performed by dealer first owner had bike for 2 years second owner put 800 miles on bike owned it for 3 years sounds like he had the oil changed once or maybe twice. no manuals coming with the bike so i had the following questions i was going to do the following before riding change oil clean the screen install new gaskets ams syn 20/50 3.5 liters is this ok grade and correct amount? gap the vlaves whats the proper settings? .10 mm intake and .15mm exhaust ? check oil in rear add if needed.. or should i change? change air filter if it looks dirty. maybe just change if im going to bother getting in there. check brake fluids. ride it is there anything else i really should be doing to it???? does the bike have u joints to grease??? is there anyplace on line with a owners or service manual? and last is there any good place to find a owners manual for thsi bike just because i would really like to have one. I know these are really simple questions but any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks dave
