  1. Did anyone notice the "Bronson'' H/D ?
  2. You should consult with someone who can paint nylon , plastic or whatever it is before you go forward on this project . Personally , I would look into maybe buying another tank if the bubble matters that much .............
  3. Uhhh , you connected them wrong ?
  4. FYI .... everyone needs to reread the entire thread on this subject . It would have saved me a lot of trouble TRYING to figure out how it works .
  5. Get ready to be surprised ! There is no tellin' what you will get . I don't think I have seen the same hue , tint or whatever you want to call it on this color . Temp , sunlight , latitude , longitude , you name it dictates what color you end up with . Pull the seat and see what color the tank started as . Whatever paint color you get is whatever color you get . Live with it and appreciate it .
  6. Yeah , Salvador .... what does the yellow phone represent ?
  7. All joking aside , there is no " normal " on ANYTHING involving a MotoGuzzi .
  8. I think all of Europe charges VAT , Final sale , country to country , etc. IDK if there is VAT on used parts or not ? I returned about $300 worth of new parts to Agostini , they were going to charge them tax on returns , I told them to throw the stuff in the trash and forget about it . There is sales tax in the US with internet sales skipping most of it . Here in The States the final destination (customer) is responsible for sales tax collected and paid .
  9. Beee cause of axle size / bearing diameter ?
  10. with the exception of the vaccination , my wife agreed with all your other points . Everyone needs to be taking Vitamin D , Zinc , Airborne , Emergen-c , etc . Talk to a good health or vitamin store and don't duplicate . P.S. she has had the vaccine , i haven't been captured yet to get mine .....
  11. What kind of set-up is with the front brake hose(s) ?
  12. I know two V11s that (modified) shift like Jap bikes........ and I hope I don't jinx ANYTHING .
  13. A person would have to spend time looking at all parts catalogs to see part #s and what fits what .
  14. Now ,a lot have mentioned " the cold " or a "knockdown , I'm gonna die" event , I have not heard of any women and very few young being hit hard by this virus , only men over 50 . Most have resulted in a loss of taste and smell . What has been your experience ?

    Birthday Cake

    That cake took some time !
  16. If you have never replaced the breather hose , inspect it & inspect it again , then replace it . MG cycle will give you the best price .
  17. Bram , search for a used unit for your bike on eBay or something similar where you live . Read this entire thread for a good education while you're not doing anything . Whatever you get , make sure it has the same connector !
  18. Whew , in four days , this conversation will be six years old ....
  19. I just checked my old( IDK if it is good/bad) one and it checked 1.4k ohm and nothing on capacitance scale . The resistance wet up to 1.8k after a dunk in gasoline . 0 in cap range . INSPECT your connector terminals before doing anything . Yes , I got a used one but it had a different connector/terminals than the 03ish bike I was working on . I was going to change the connector/terminals to Weatherpack and couldn't find ANYTHING til I got finished w/the job .
  20. To the best of my knowledge , this is a capacitive type sensor and you don't test with a meter or the way you normally test . I replaced mine because of fuel leak and irregular operation . The terminal contact was broken on one terminal . After getting a used one with the wrong connector . I tried swapping connectors , wrong terminals & all kinds of mess , I went through about 10 wiring harnesses and found a terminal that somewhat worked . Hmmmmm . I will check the old sensor by dipping it into fuel and test it & I will let you know what I find on how to test and what is a good reading .
  21. My best friend contracted it after denying the power of this virus . He lost 30lbs and every day and thought he was going to die . He caught it from his wife and she barely was sick . After recovering from (his words) the illness of a lifetime , he resumed watching his favorite news channel and has forgotten all he learned from his experience . I do NOT waste time with this hot topic because everyone's knowledge (if you want to call it that) comes from news channels only . My wife , step-daughter had it while I was in Ind. working . They had symptoms with hardly any illness . My step-son never caught it . BTW ,the Ind. citizens were responsible the way they were masking up . I mask up 99% of the time I enter a business . The only thing I KNOW about this virus , I don't want it !
