Just got it firing!
I suppose I am about to become an owner of a 2012 Stelvio (non NTX), with the 32Ltank and cast wheels.
The bike has 12000kms on it, apparently one owner but no service history.
The bike appears to be in good condition apart from the fact that some of the nuts are showing a fair bit of corrosion. front wheel axle nut, for example. Couldnt see a wrench icon on the dash LCD so I assume atleast the 10000km service has been done.
My guess is that its been left out in the elements, possibly near ocean or ridden in rain often.
Apart from the corrosion it looks in good condition (externally). Some of the wiring under the front fairing looks a bit messy, but im not sure if this is standard.
Test ride was good. Clutch bite/engagment was at the last cm of lever travel but Im told this can be adjusted by just moving the lever.
I havent taken the seat off to check condition of battery nor have I checked the ground leads. I intend to get some extra grease into the various bearings as shown in the various great maintenance articles on this board. I also will check the spark plugs, boots and cables.
Probably cant hurt to do a complete fluid flush as well a TB sync I guess.
Have I missed anything?
Looking forward to having my first MG !
