docc Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 So nicely done! And the music! Die Berliner Philharmoniker performing Vivaldi? (Perfect for the classy bike and such clean work!) I did spy the one hammer in the window sill . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biesel Posted June 22, 2018 Author Share Posted June 22, 2018 Thank you guys for this feedback! When you publish something on YouTube you can pick a music title from their library which is free to use. I would have preferred AC/DC which is maybe audible here: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Hagan Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Saints preserve me from the loathsome cacophony of the likes of AC/DC. Blech. Thankfully, your whistling masked most of that. The original was if the angels were singing. Great vid, tho. Saw it here and wondered if on GrisoGhetto.com, too. Yup. Well done. Best, Bilhelm P,S. Docc, you've been spending too much time in the "What Have You Been Listening To" area. It's Beethoven's "Egmont." See. e.g., https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChcrZX2rZ1M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biesel Posted June 23, 2018 Author Share Posted June 23, 2018 Yes ... the music,,, I have added that to the text now: Beethoven arranged by Kevin MacLeod. "Egmont Overture" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docc Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Yes, yes: Beethoven. I thought I was clever to guess Vivaldi knowing that it was not Wagner (which is what is usually spinning in my head when it is not AC/DC . . . The fender installation, biesel, is so very nicely done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not-fishing Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Ach du lieber himmel! Your Griso is so clean! Mine, on the other hand looks like a proper raufbold. It's all grimy after 50,000+ miles. Thanks for the post it's getting close to time for me to replace the rear shock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

68C Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I have mounted an Öhlins TTX 36 shock and a Millepercento Fender/Mud guard on my Griso. Expensive but really excellent products which I can really recommend. I have just uploaded a slideshow to my YouTube channel showing the whole procedure:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hi8Lw80TpOo I know I keep on about this but....... Remember carbon fibre is not fibreglass or plastic. It conducts eletricity and so will cause galvanic corrosion if water gets between it and metal, in particular aluminium alloy. Not a problem provided you make sure there is no bare alloy to carbon fibre contact. When I picked up my Rosso Corsa and gave it a good clean I found the lugs on the Ohlins forks were very pitted with corrosion. Cleaned up OK and now insulated with plenty of paint on the lugs and plastic washers. You just paid a lot of money for those lovely parts, make sure they will last. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docc Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 " Ach du lieber himmel ! " (Just could not resist reposting that, !) I totally have never considered that carbon fiber is conductive! About 100 Ohms from one end of my exhaust canister to the other. Wow, 68C, thank you! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biesel Posted July 5, 2018 Author Share Posted July 5, 2018 @68C: Thanks for this hint. I wasn´t aware of this but you are right (had to google for this)! The spacers between fender and swingarm should help to avoid this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 100 Ohms from one end of my exhaust canister to the other. Wow, biesel, thank you! Beechcraft found out about this with the Starship and bought them all back, as far as I know. They didn't do well with lightning strikes.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docc Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 I edited my post to credit 68C for this knowledge about carbon fiber conductivity. I so totally did not know this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
