Hi it's not critical, I just make sue mine are very tight as they have been known to lossen off...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldini Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 As Guzzimeister says. There's a metal bush in either end of rod, & bolts torque up against bracket through these - ie. it's a fixed distance so no distortion of parts by normal tightening. Manual gives 45-50 Nm for 10mm bolts. KB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuevototem Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 Hi to all, I been using a torque of 45-50 Nm and the silent blocks break down in 30.000KM. Not for the pressure! if you think of the movement of the suspension the ideal way is to let the silent block free to move! I am doing that now. Didn't push all the way so the chassis rod can adapt to the suspension movement and put some nut lock for more security. My mechanic tell me the same than you all... What do you think? Best regards!

Baldini Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I think it's designed to be solid mounted & suspension movement taken up by rubber block. Yes they breakdown. It's not designed to be mounted loose: plain steel bush/bolt with no facility for lubrication will just wear, & play will develop. Answer is to fit one of the aftermarket rods (Rossopurro ?) with rose joints at ends. KB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuevototem Posted March 15, 2011 Author Share Posted March 15, 2011 Hi to all, I am thinking to buy the RT1G0030AN - Cardan bar for V11 - black finish. Is rossopuro with problems? I remember they have problems to send products before... Best Regards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felix42o Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I have only purchased a Cardan bar from them, but had no problems at all. Nice quality, and no problems getting it to the U.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guzzi2Go Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Same here. Stein-Dinse delivers them in 2-3 days. However, red ones seem to be out of stock at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motoguzznix Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I think rubber bushes are the best for this purpose. They dampen out clonking during load alternations what metal ball joints can not. And when these joints get just minimal play, the forces trnasmitted into the drivetrain increase dramatically. The bushes may live longer when you tighten the bolts front/rear with one person sitting on the bike during that activity. The bushes then have no tension at normal ride height.

nuevototem Posted March 17, 2011 Author Share Posted March 17, 2011 motoguzznix, Interesting advice... Anyone with the Rossopuro Cardan bar have any problem? Best regards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emry Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Less cardan bar movement shouold just be transfered into more suspension movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
