  1. You would be correct if it was a carb. engine where you were adjusting an idle mixture. This is an idle bypass screw meant to trim the idle speed.
  2. I have been looking at these for months & just haven't bought them yet.
  3. Ralph,are these photographs taken at your house?
  4. The only thing I would recommend is to take paper towels saturated with a spray lubricant and fill the opening of the (both) exhaust.
  5. Do you own a grinder or a hammer & chisel?
  6. looks good. good luck! Will the warning labels come off? They will probably be required to stay on the bike!
  7. This is one time Ratch might (and I mean might) acquiesce.
  8. Excellent video ! I thought that was David Bowie singing......
  9. What are the last words out of every Redneck's mouth? "Hey y'all watch this" !
  10. How nice. He was able to properly word his claim to cover his problem !
  11. FWIW. Some insurance companies will cover "immediate discharge" of water only. e.g. a discharge in the last 24 hrs, not over a "long" period of time i.e. if the lines burst and discharge over a period of days.
  12. After the fact: an old plumber's trick, when you are repairing the PVC or CPVC pipes poke a wad of white bread into the pipe with water dripping out of it to stop the drip while you are letting the primer and glue to "set up" on reassembly. Also, wrap the split foam insulation an ALL ( hot &cold)pipes under the house.
  13. I don't know what they are selling but I want it !
  14. I like the "HOT TOPIC" remark...............
  15. Nah, forget about it! These things are Italian...we have to be passionate about them, eh? Frankly I'm not nuts about a mechanical gauge unless I can run an AN braided line and all my hot-rod friends use electrical gauges so...who knows? I need now to make sure there's no swarf in the sump. I'm dying to have a look in there too at that oil pickup. No, just attach the manual gauge temporarily. See what pressure is there and decide what to do.
  16. I wasn't trying to piss you (accept my apologies) off. The manual gauge will give you an accurate reading of what you have. Mine did the same thing over the summer. I replaced the sender, crimped the connector for a better grip and solved the problem. I am sure Guzzi could have a much better sump system than what they have. The Steine-Dense (sp?) pan seems like the way to go. I am running a Roper plate in my bike.
  17. Why don't you stop speculating and connect a manual pauge in place of the sending unit? You will find out more looking at that instrument than looking at our input...........
  18. That's old.............. Robin Leach interviewed them on "The Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous" long ago.
  19. I would be able to say YES if the model were looking this way...........
