    Clutch slave cylinder noise

    Same squeak here on my 8v griso (15500 Km) since … don't remember. Flushing clutch oil (did it for other reasons) doesn't made a difference, too. There are other noises that worry me more…

    Removing 8v Griso side panel 'skirt'

    If i remember right you have to remove 10 screws and loosen the screws of the saddle lock (3) and/or unhook the release cable (6). Then you peel of the panel with both hands backwards (standing behind the bike) while slightly bending left + right side outwards…

    Clutch thrust bearing on 8V's

    Pete, may i resurrect this topic? While disassembling swing arm for grease check I took the opportunity to check the clutch thrust bearing, too. While inserting gears my late 2010 Griso Tenni made from day one on very heavy "clonks" esp. when getting warmer. This even get's a little bit worse...

    RH lights selector/Hazard switch from Norge on a Griso?

    hmm… one mistake i made is i confound the connector blocks and ECU blocks on the wiring diagram (pin 14is on the connector - not the ECU), but nevertheless the question still remains will the Griso ECU have this feature…

    Backfireing Stelvio

    regarding backfiring a further ad: would not hurt to check all exhaust seals for leakage, especially on the opposite side of clear view…

    Article on the Griso!!!

    The only feminine analogy which comes in mind is that my guzzi behaves like an italian bitch: she's loud, drinks like a fish and if she get migraine she's good for nothing… (sorry ladies!)

    Tool to adjust air-/by pass screw

    Apparently a 1200 thing: it has allen hex screws.

    Tool to adjust air-/by pass screw

    Guys (+ girls), found yesterday another tricky tool… while strolling through a local DIY store i saw this: Primary for use with battery drills it possibly will help in our case, too. It's dirt cheap (about 5,- EUR) but also a little bit wobbly made, maybe to much clearance by using with...

    Tool to adjust air-/by pass screw

    Yes, that has also been on my mind. Regarding "tubes" i had another idea of something like that: A bendable screwdriver… unfortunately this tube (you'd never guess where i found it :lol: ) isn't stiff enough. OK finally I have the whole winter time to work on that issue ;-) Dietrich

    Griso Headlight Bucket Replacement?

    Another LED main light alternative - not ready made and not that cheap, but may be something to work on: http://www.truck-lite.com/wcsstore/tl/r ... ochure.pdf

    Tool to adjust air-/by pass screw

    Pete, do you know what special tool is this (#6)? May be it's simply a rubber hose… btw: i forgot to mention that i've Stucchi crashbars mounted, therefore room to work on the screws is additionally limited. Dietrich

    Tool to adjust air-/by pass screw

    Yes, but unfortunately my key has the ball tip on the long side shaft :-(

    Tool to adjust air-/by pass screw

    … i grab back in my household tool box and have at least 2 "standards" – both 5mm ;-) The other 4 standards in my garage equally won't give me the right feeling since it is not about an on/off action. I'll keep you posted if i find something more convenient :-) Dietrich

    Tool to adjust air-/by pass screw

    Hi folks! Does anybody has a hint which (special-) tool should be used to adjust the air-/by pass screws on the throttle body? I know that there are hex socket screws but they are hardly to reach with standard tools. I yet shortened a redundant IKEA key but handling is still more than...

    Griso Headlight Bucket Replacement?

    You're not alone… My bucket collapsed due the fact that some idiot at Guzzi or supplier tightened the reflector retaining screw so hard that the strap inside the housing cracked. Fortunately the reflector popped out one day as i came back from ride and sharply slowed down in front of my garage...

    Griso Mid/Y-pipe: why…

    Pete, there's no crack in the tube itself, therefore no airleak (as GuzziMoto pointed that out, too). And exhaust gaskets seem to fit well and dense. If checked by hand no blow by is perceptible. By my dealer. Didn't asked him for a script… they've done recently the 10000 Km service and TB...

    Griso Mid/Y-pipe: why…

    Todd, Pete, i can easily follow you both, but i should make my first intention more clear as i maybe not did while starting the original post: 1st problem: broken straps at y-pipe 2nd problem: the s-bend y-pipe looks generally that ugly (at least in my eyes) Possible solutions: a) replace by...

    Griso Mid/Y-pipe: why…

    What i meant to say with "run like a sack of shells" is in other words "run like crap" (constant driving bucking* between 2.000-4.000). Do i get you right and you would say e.g. an actual Griso standard oem with somewhat 3000 Km or so will run smooth at these revs? No offend, Pete. I simply want...
