    Stelvio windscreen

    So, I just picked up a used NTX fuel tank to put on my 09 over the winter. With this conversion, I need pretty much everything from the headlights to the seat. Anyone have a stock NTX windscreen they want to get rid of?

    CARC Failures

    Well said. For the most part, same here. I did have the rollerization because of tappet failure, but I just didn't consider it that big of a deal. The factory supplied the parts on a bike that was 2 1/2 years out of warranty. I paid labor which was about the same as a full service. It's the...

    CARC Failures

    It's clearly not a design problem. I have 63,000+ miles on mine and have flogged the piss out of it offroad, as have others. I hit a pothole (with a passenger on board) at 60mph the other day that left my back and neck sore for 3 days. No issues. I've run extremely rough terrain with a lot of...

    Who's got the highest mileage on their stelvio

    I'm closing in on 65,000 miles on my 09 that I bought new/leftover in 2010. I have multiple Guzzi's that get used pretty regularly so my bike miles get spread around. I have 70,000+ miles on my V11 Sport Ballabio 50,000+ miles on my 1970 Ambassador I have no doubt at all that my Stelvio will...

    Stelvio tires - Shinko 705 review

    I've had 3 sets or so of them and like them a lot. They have a really nice turn in. I don't get the mileage out of them like I do out of the Heidi K60's, but they're much quieter and smoother running. I'm taking off a pair of knobbies tomorrow and putting an almost new set of Shinko 705's on...

    Now Ohlins for your Stelvio

    Hmmm.. I desperately need a new rear shock. So many choices. The Ohlins option interests me....

    Plug wires

    My wife's Griso SE had a bit of a low speed stumble this weekend, so I decided to have a look see. I found the plug wire on the right side to have a crack in the metal connector that slides into the coil. Voltage was arcing across from the wire to the coil body pretty badly. Looking at it, the...

    Stelvio issues

    Well as an update, my 09 Stelvio has been rollerized and runs nicely. Now. Sadly, when the dealer gave me back the bike, they left it with a serious intake leak, valves way out of adjustment (one intake was at .2mm and the others not much better), they didn't reset the tps, or resync the...

    GuzziTech now offers Nitron Shocks for your Stelvio

    Hey Todd, is there an ability to put the knob on for pre-load? It's nice not having to carry a wrench to adjust on the fly.

    Stelvio Wire Rims & Stucchi Luigi CARC Protector

    Jeezus. This is the second CARC break I've seen in a week. Someone on ADV posted a picture of a Stelvio with a break in what looks to be the same spot. Any story on what happened to this Griso?

    Who's got the highest mileage on their stelvio

    Yeah, I've got about 60,000 miles on mine now. Should just about crack 80,000 this year.

    Stelvio REGISTRY & Pics thread -- ADD YOUR BIKE

    A dirty Stelvio is a happy Stelvio. This year on a 3 day ride in Vermont. The weekend had everything from fast gravel to muddy single track. Every time I take the big girl off road, it impresses me how well it handles and how relatively easy it is to ride. I did take a little digger in a mud...

    Makes a fair bit of racket too when they start going.

    Stelvio issues

    Great news. I've been waiting for the call from my dealer as to when the roller kit would be available. I'm on a second standard set, but would like to get the rollers in before another issue. I'll ping my dealer today. Thanks for putting a bug in their ear. Doug

    Took the plunge!

    I have the Supertones. They're painful. :mrgreen:

    Griso TT = an alternative to a Stelvio?

    Love it. If Guzzi built one, I'd buy it. If a kit was available to turn an 1100 Griso into that, I'd buy that and a Griso 1100 too! :lol:

    Bikey no Starty

    Battery is only about 2 years old. I think the combination of a long really cold winter in the garage and leaving the heated gear running while I was refueling is all it took to knock it below the needed amperage to trigger the relay. Once back at the garage, I plugged the charger in and...

    Bikey no Starty

    I think I know what happened. I have only had the bike out a couple of times so far this Winter/ Spring and have been using my heated gear which all tolled is pulling about 150 watts. While I was fueling, I left the gear on and I think it pulled just enough amperage to not trigger the relay...

    Bikey no Starty

    Got on the Stelvio this morning to go to work. Bike started right up fine. No issues. Stopped about a mile up the road for gas, filled the tank, and put the key in, turned the key, normal cycle of tach needle, idiot lights etc. Hit the starter button and nothing. No click, nothing. Took the...
