    Dead battery in 8V already?

    I had a problem with my G11 when new, it turned out to be a bad connection at the battery terminal. Once cleaned and reconnected it has been fine ever since.

    Software Compatibilty

    Yes, I have successfully used VDSTS and the PC-V software on window 7. I was also able to use both on Windows Vista after getting the USB-9pin adapter drivers working for VDSTS, PC-V worked right away. Chris

    Exhaust pipe corrosion

    Mine had some spotting issues once and I was able to polish them out with mother's metal polish. the color was brighter in those areas at first, but after heating up everything was the same again. I quickly figured out the the spray cleaner I was using for the bike was getting on the pipes and...

    Leaking valve cover?

    Got my second set of real gaskets, this time finger tight with the small end of the wrench. All seems good so far, no leaks.

    Autotune options

    No worries Todd, things are working great. I was just asking out of curiosity, interesting to see what others are trying. I imagine there are lots of theories out there as to what works best. I'll stick with your recommendations, I know you've been at this for a while and have some historical...

    Autotune options

    So how much is a HUGE amount at those two settings? Chris

    Power Commander V - R2.0 or ?

    For those on the fence, let me share my experience. My 07 Griso is my first Guzzi, and although I enjoy working on mechanical type things, I have no experience as a mechanic or working on motorcycles. While the PC-V and autotune are not totally plug and play, the install was relatively easy if...

    Leaking valve cover?

    Being paranoid about leaks from previous issues I can say with first hand knowledge that the cure to a valve cover leak is not overtightening. I purchased the real gaskets and tightend them too far. If you tighten them anywhere near the spec for the oem gaskets it will cause the silicon to...

    Stepper motor on/off kit

    I have it hooked up to my Griso per Todd's instructions. The valve has worked as advertised with every turn of the key. Chris

    VDSTS and vista finally working

    I was able to get it to work on Vista by downloading the drivers from the web, cd didn't help me. Even better, when I installed it on Windows 7 it found the drivers automatically and runs with no issues. Chris

    GTM Fueling Info

    Sorry it took me so long to post on this Todd, but I really wanted to get some unrelated issues sorted out so I could test the setup and post my results. Things just seem to give me trouble on a regular basis, I don't take it personally or blame the equipment, just part of the fun in keeping...

    Valve Adjustment

    Thanks for the quick reply pete. Next step for me balancing the throttle bodies, just need to get a sync tool first. Chris

    Valve Adjustment

    I just completed my first valve adjustment on the Griso and found it to be extremely easy. I set to 4 and 6 thou as specified, before setting they were at 8 and 12 thou. Other than a little extra noise, does the looseness affect anything? Chris
