Some info from the old continent.
Care is required changing the front tyre on the Stelvio. Apparently, several people have found the wheel mounts in their forks (the pinch or however you call it?) broken at the level of the two small bolts, after a tyre change, verification of the bolts or retorqueing. Guzzi's official standpoint is that they trust Marzocchi, and that the problem can only be due to an over-tightening at more than the official 10Nm (or any other value??).
The good-to-know thing: they'll only change the forks under warranty if this occurs in the hands of an official MG dealer.
Strange affair if you ask me. I'd expect more margin in the specified torque value, and also a material that isn't so brittle it breaks in 2 if you overdo the tightening..
