    Cracked mivvs

    Think so? They run along a weld line. I'm surprised they got sent out, unless they wanted rid of some 'seconds' ?

    I listened to that twice in a row. However i'm probably in the wrong place to ask 'is there summit wrong wi' me?'

    Well they're on now. I have to say- I thought the ol' titty mistrals sounded funky but ... 0.0 ...

    airbox mod

    Heh! 'Winter' in Rome- what, say, a chilly 15 degrees C? Brrrr! Do those snorks link into the airbox?

    Ay up j, how did you modify them? Did you drop a jackhammer thru them?

    Cracked mivvs

    Aye, i've messaged mivv directly, no reply as yet. The thing that really piddles me off is at some point i'll have to change my forum avatar.

    I'm inclined to agree. However it took 40 days to get them sent from italy to the uk... The thought of returning them and waiting for replacements fills me with misery.

    Alright All, can i get opinions on this? I ordered some new silencers from mivv and when they (eventually..) came i noticed a couple of cracks in one of them. See pix below. Obviously they are purchased 'new', but will they be ok? Worried these cracks just likely to grow and grow with use. Should I be concerned?
  9. I had that when i over-tightened the shift lever.
  10. If your main concern is reliability...... Get a honda. No, really, or a kawasaki- they're awesome bikes.
  11. Admittedly i live in ol' blighty, but i find 70-80mph to be a delicious place to be on my unfaired v11...
  12. Looks gorgeous on your nero mate
  13. No probs. No, not goin tut staff meet- unfortunately Wednesday neet is quiz neet at the local pube. We won second last week so have ten quid behind the bar. :0) ... hic ...
  14. I've got a balliblio handle bar going spare cabs, give us a shout if interested. Incidentally, i've just gone the opposite way: Renthal ultralow off and tarozzi high rise clips on. The renthal was ace, very comfy and you can tweek the forks up n down in the yolks for satisfaction- just 10mm either way seemed to make quite a difference.
  15. Hmmm, loose batt terminals? Plugs not tight? Crudded up fuel filter?? Split intake rubbers??? You will also be asked when you last checked the tps...
  16. Mmm, that is nice. Something funky going on with the speedo drive?
  17. From those pix it looks in great nick for a 12yo. They're lovely bikes, hope you bond well!
  18. Off-roading eh? Got a sound vid at all?
  19. Nice v7. I went down to the guzzi shop the other day- the paint jobs are lovely on yhe new machines. Sat on a griso....
  20. Some folks seem to drive around only half aware.... They should learn to ride motorbikes, that'd sharpen up their observation skills!
  21. Anyone got an idea on duty charges from oz tut uk?
  22. eeperpro after the sachs emptied itsen
  23. Is there something holding it off slightly (battery? Toolkit?)
  24. Hmm dunno, the hanger is welded on and the joint weld runs on the inside too. That repair thread is great, not sure if ive the time, or skills, to repair mine- the damage is quite bad.
  25. I've never fitted the bally fairing that mine came with- it looks hideous, but i tried a small puig jobby, it was awful over 70mph due to shooting air straight in me mug.
