  1. Portent of digital cbdc shenanigans This track meant something in Hawke era Australia way back in ‘87
  2. They like to cause trouble & strife. Their tactic is to divide & conquer But they can’t conquer us when we stand together My Scura R smiles & nods in agreement What a great sunset!
  3. Here’s my tip. Don’t eliminate the 15RC ECU’s closed loop ability by disabling the O2 sensor. Do not disable the 15RC closed loop adjustability - just change the Guzzi factory installed O2 sensor which was found to be inadequate - with the Bosch improved LSH24 sensor upgrade. I strongly advise you do this before anything else. Years ago I too was frustrated & went searching on foreign sites for possibly overlooked solutions. I’ll leave this translation with you from what I originally tracked down on an Italian Guzzi forum. I can’t recall how many pages were laboriously translated (literally hundreds), but eventually found this gem discussing the root problem - acted on the advice as it was both a) inexpensive b) easy (what’s not to like?) & c) made the most succinct sense - & found I’d hit the jackpot. Hiccup free 100%. Perfect. Translating Anima Guzzista there was a highly respected Italian Guzzi mechanic (Ube) known as Motoube on Anima Guzzista forum who clearly stated the original root of the problem: “the probe used by Guzzi corresponds to a BOSH probe which has certain characteristics corresponding to the BOSH specification "LSH15", in jargon called the LSh15 calibration curve this probe was used on cars starting from 1992/93, it was immediately seen that its sensitivity and response speed were INADEQUATE TO THE REAL CONDITIONS OF USE OF THE VEHICLE. BOSCH ran for cover and created the probe with the LSH24 calibration curve. much much faster and much much more sensitive. realize that the LSH15 probe has such a slow response time to the variation of the exhaust gases that the control unit takes a thousand or more readings of the lambda value .... the LSH24 instead has a very good sensitivity and a response time equivalent to the reading interval of the ECU.”

  5. Dunno what prices are like in the US market… but that looks like a steal
  6. When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies? Perhaps to be too practical is madness. To surrender dreams - this may be madness. Too much sanity may be madness - and maddest of all: to see life as it is, and not as it should be! ~ Don Quixote

    Your welcome 😂 Yeah been er’… ‘moderated’ a couple of times…
  8. Yeah nah maaate The bloody roos are manageable unless the dawn sun is in ‘yer eyes… altho’ the tiger snakes can be fairly stressful flicking up from ‘yer wheels & climbing into the engine bay only to reappear pissed off on refuelling at the next Golden Fleece roadhouse On a couple occasions riding I’ve had to deal with bush chooks which can be as unpredictable as a epileptic spastic on New Year’s Eve But those angry drop bears are what I usually keep my eyes out for - you’ll be farked if they time it right & get ahold of you Luckily I don’t live out by Ayer’s Rock - the dingoes out there are bloody rug rat killers Strewth! Yeah mate..
  9. Actually there’s about 1500 degrees of difference between fog and dew One is ground level 😏
  10. Yeah… the meedia do haarp on over climate change Stay strong Lahaina 💪
  11. Aloha! What’s your experience? I haven’t had the opportunity to ride the island… but years ago, I did ride with a couple of mates up to Big Bear outside Los Angeles and the dew at 6,800 feet is bad. Dew at any level is terribly treacherous. Here’s the opening lines from a magazine review by Robert Smith. “One the most memorable and exhilarating rides of my motorcycling life was on a Guzzi: a race-tuned 850 Le Mans Mk1. I rode it from Ha’iku, Maui (close to sea level) up to the Haleakala Park entrance at 6,800 feet on the volcano’s switchback access road, and back down again. With a race cam, lightened flywheels, flowed head, Bub exhaust and flat-slide Mikunis, that baby really flew, handled precisely and would stop on, if not a dime, certainly a nickel. But what was so seductive was the way the motor loved to rev. Below 3,000 rpm, it wouldn’t have pulled a fly off a cow patty; but when it came on the cam, it surged to the red line with a rush of booming power; but on closing the throttle, all was uncannily smooth and calm.” Uncannily smooth and calm… stay strong Lahaina 💪 https://cdnbkr.ca/3893-2-motorcycle-review/moto-guzzi-breva-1200-2008/
  12. They may take away our plastic drinking straws BUT THEY'LL NEVER TAKE OUR FREEDOM! 😏
  13. Can’t remember if this has been posted previously… but genuinely plead befuddlement rousing from three craicing pints of Fixation IPA 🫤

  15. It’s quite clear you’re on the right track LP. There is a conspiracy. But there’s nothing theoretical about it. However if you’re not comfortable with conspiracy theorist - the mind numbing alternative is being a ‘Coincidence theorist’ 🤣
  16. Hi Formula Alfa I missed seeing your post in regards to your V11 equipped with the O2 sensor which enables the 15RC ECU to efficiently autotune & trim lambda optimisation whilst in close looped rev range operation ie., constant throttle cruising - which is EXACTLY where the annoying hiccup stumble will appear breaking the glorious reverie in enjoying the moment My bike is 100% hiccup free perfect - whether at 4000rpm, 3500rpm, 3000rpm, 2500rpm, 2000rpm - I can’t even squeeze so much as an experimental ‘hic’ out of it at any rev level The annoying hiccup is but a distant memory. Gone. Please read thru the thread that docc kindly inserted - it’s all there. Change out the factory O2 sensor to the LSH24 Bosch unit & Bob’s your uncle Hiccup begone - & as a bonus - bike runs detectably smoother
  17. Years ago I read up a bit on this Krajka effort Fascinating story - one of my favourites Looks like the factory has restored it
  18. Here’s a really nifty vid which got the old noggin thinking - & which may inform our choices far more than merely oil viscosity weights &/or brand preferences. Such a lot of gems in their over 200 vids collection https://m.youtube.com/@TotalSeal I’ll park this resource here for helpful or interesting browsing. 👍😎
