Scud, you're a scholar and a gentleman.

I got to ride an RC8. Very acceptable riding position. Strong midrange. I wish I could've opened up. The KTM guys said they could still be ordered.

Scud, you're a stand up guy.

I plan to again. Have done it for the last few years. usually in Sept - Oct.

hope you and your bike are back 100%

Stew- I think I just overfilled the gearbox. I've never filled it on a center stand (don't have one) and just roughly measured it. I think (hope) it's shed enough fluid where the pressure is down and won't leak out. But who knows?

plug it!

seems to have stopped for now. thanks for asking. thanks for the wishes.

thnx Docc. Just got her a few weeks ago. A real cream puff. A deal just too good to pass up. Had her on the road course a couple of times, that throttle will get away from ya and take you right around.

My wife drives a '14 Accord EX Sedan stick. We also have a '99 Trooper and '04 Duramax that I pull my Travel Trailer Toy Hauler. I am trying to sell my Camaro. This is my new ride. 49k miles, stick and 430 hp.

1 1/8 turns? Docc, you must be stronger than Charles Atlas. And then you have to screw that oily thing off? Superman (or Channel Locks) I can only say, I am glad I use the hose clamp Shit, my hands are smaller than Donald Trump's.

Looks like a Guzzi meet up in Huntsville Ark at the Withrow Springs State park this weekend. http://wildguzzi.com/forum/index.php?topic=81997.0 I am on the fence but if I go I'll stay in the motel (don't feel like camping). It's 300 mile trip for me. In fact Dusty (Cedar Vale fame) is putting this weekend campout together. I'm usually at Cedar Vale, we also do a meet up in Springfield (MO) to ride the Springfield (IL) Mile. I've done the Undercliff at Tipton Ford too but it's a long ways for a lunch ride. I usually make a trip or two to the Ozarks every year. I'd like to ride your 100 mile loop. Perhaps I'll see you soon? Saw that. Going to get the V11 safety inspected tomorrow and head down that way to say hello. Looking forward to meeting you at CV. I'll be the sissy looking for lodging thereabouts..... Saw you made it there. Well, maybe next time for me?

Leroy, You're in Neosho? I am not sure if we've met. Do you ride with Guzzi John, Dusty or Rocker on Wild Guzzi? I am usually heading to Ozarks a couple of times a year. Probably will go to the RAT Raid in Jasper Ark in April. Perhaps we can catch a ride together and you can show me some new roads? John L

Yeah, I was at the Indy Mile when Kenny did 4 demo laps on that thing. That was during the 2nd MotoGP weekend at Indy.

Were having Flat Track on the Mile at Remington Downs in OKC, Saturday June 18th. You might've seen my post on Wild Guzzi. If not, I am putting together a campout and cookout at Lake Arcadia about 15 minute ride north of the track. If you never seen a Mile Flat Track, I can tell you it's the most exciting racing there is. Compare it to anything, Indy Cars, Moto GP, NASCAR, it's really exciting. If you're interested, let me know or keep up with this space or WG.

Docc, you stiffened the rear spring and dropped the front ?

It's not one thing it's another...........

I wouldn't mind having the RC8. It's very comfortable, perhaps more so than my Sport. And man, it's a Superbike with some real midrange.

when mine is vertical, it definitely shows full. I might dump it and remeasure in a marked cup. I've just been eyeballing it out of the site line on the side of the bottle.

my dream bike would be my Greenie done up with a Mike Rich engine and Guzzitech Suspension.

Oh the tranny has a site glass not an overflow plug. Gees forgot that. Anyway it's full when upright vs on the sidestand. I am guessing that it might be pretty easy to overfill it.

Well I was finally able to trace it. Unfortunately, It's the transmission that is leaking. Not sure where or how. I switched to a red gear oil and found a few drips and lots of smear on the bottom. First thing I'll check is if it's overfilled (I fill it on the sidestand) and check if it needs a crush washer. Next I'll look for cracks,
