For all new members, we require ONE post in the Introductions section at the bottom, in order to post in most of the other sections.

There is ZERO tolerance on personal attacks and ANY HYPERLINKS to PRODUCT(S) or other competing website(s), including personal pages, social media or other Forums. This ALSO INCLUDES ECU DIAGnostic software, questions and mapping. We work very hard to offer commercially supported products and to keep info relevant here. First offense is a note, second is a warning, third time will get you banned from the site. We don't have the time to chase repeat (and ignorant) offenders. This is NOT a social media platform; It's an ad-free, privately funded website, in small help with user donations. Be sure to see the GTM STORE link above; ALL product purchases help support the site, or you can upgrade your Forum profile or DONATE via the link above.

WE'RE HERE ONLINE ONLY - NO PHONE CALLS MADE OR RECEIVED - DO NOT EMAIL AND ASK QUESTIONS OR ASK TO CALL YOU.
Like the new V100, GuzziTech is full throttle into the future! We're now running on an all-new server and we've updated our Forum software. The visual differences are obvious, but hopefully you'll notice the super-fast speed. If you notice any glitches or have any issues, please post on the Site Support section at the bottom. If you haven't yet, please upgrade your account which is covered in the Site Support section or via the DONATE tab above, which gives you full site access including the DOWNLOADS section.

I bought the M/G stand & put a "creeper" wheel on the lift arm at the lowest part of the arm. WOW ! I can push the bike around the shop or spin it around w/no fear of it falling. The only way to go.
Leave the charcoal canister alone.It is an emmisions device and isn't hurting anything. Look for loose bolts,things rubbing,etc. and repair....
How do you like the TransAlp?
ps. I run nitrogen in my tires, it is worth it.
I would ride it a few miles w/new plugs. Replace them and ride another 100 mi. then check them. You want to make sure you have problems before you tore into it.
I don't know which models/yrs had chrome cylinders. Great idea but very impractical.
Loctite makes an anaerobic gasket maker. Part # 518. I use it where there is no gasket.I don't know if you are using gasket on the mating surfaces? This stuff is used on perfectly dry mating surfaces and it is GREAT !
