    No spark

    My Cali iii does not seem to have any spark I checked the fuses and it ran a short time on one cylinder then shut off not to fire again. I changed the headlight. I don't think I bumped anything but perhaps. Any ideas. I switched spark plugs.

    Winter ride

    Well a strong Chinook had been blowing across southern Alberta the last few days. Chinooks are warm westerly winds. The snow melted off as well as the ice in the back alleys so I had the opportunity to take the 1100 sport I bought out for a ride today. First impressions are that it has a chip...

    LED taillights

    I purchased a pair of red led taillights for my California iii. I believe someone has changed the tailight to a dual setup off of a jackel. Anyhow the alternator had a hard time keeping up to the load with the headlight on instead of just the daytime running lights. I gained a volt to two extra...

    How to setup suspension correctly

    I will start with the California iii. It is a full fairing model so heavier than the standard ones. I weigh around 275. One up riding I have the spring preload set on the middle position and six pounds of air in the forks. Michelin tires. Ride quality seems best with rear preload set in the...

    Pirelli app.

    I downloaded an app from Pirelli's website into my smart phone. Anyhow you can open the app and do test runs. What happens is the phone records for trip. Speed lean angles etc. So tonight I thought I would take a ride around my favorite in town roads back inforth accross the river valley. On a...

    Increased engine size.

    I was wondering how I could increase the size of the engine on my California iii? One way may be to buy a 1064 cc engine off of eBay. I understand that there may be some ignition issues with an engine swap. What are those issues? Can I bore the jugs out and if so how big can I go? Do any of the...
