    CalVin - Electrical problem

    Thank you Dave and Brian for your help. I just had the battery fully charged and checked it. Ignition ON: 12.5v Engine running > 2,000RPM: 14.5v (fluctuating a bit with rpm between 14v and 15v) Suddenly it went back to 12.5v steady regardless of rpm. After a little while it went back to...

    Time has come to replace the rear tyre of my bike (11,000Km) I still have the originals: Front: Metzler 110/90-18-61V Rear: Metzler 140/80-17-69V Are these the best tyres or would somebody recommend another brand and/or size for the California Vintage? Thanks!

    CalVin - Electrical problem

    After reading about some problems with alternator output, some time ago (900Km ago) I installed a voltmeter on my Vintage. Lucky me! From the first time I had it installed I found very weird that with engine stopped it showed a little bit below 12v (correct) but while riding it showed a load of...

    Thank you for your quick answer and help, Todd. Actually I think that the problem with my California Vintage is not a big one. At low speed I do feel a bit of wobbling on irregular surfaces but nothing dramatic or that I cannot live with. The bike is brand-new therefore I don't think that the...

    California Max. Speed

    Thanks Pete! Actually 150Km/h max. is more than enough for me. I normally cruise at around 130Km/h (81 MPH). I was just trying to check how fast I could ride it in comfort. I'm not looking for any faster bike. My previous one was a 2008 Triumph Sprint ST on which I could ride at 200 Km/h all...

    California Vintage Dyno Run

    Thanks for the info. Taking the above into account the Dyno figures of my Vintage compare very favourably with the factory-claimed power. 75.0 hp - 69.3 hp = - 7.6% 94.0 Nm - 82.7 Nm = - 12.0% The output of your bike is really impressive! I didn't know that there was a PC available for the...

    Symptoms: When the ignition key goes ON sometimes (average of once every 20 times) the fuel pump doesn’t go ON therefore there is no start. Troubleshooting: On one occasion that it happened the following was tested: - Fuel pump tested OK when 12v was applied directly to it. - Cranking the...
