Glad you brought it back from the edge! It looks great - and, I know it’ll run well, (and handle like a champ, belying its size!)… have a fun summer on it!
Good to hear T2. I currently have a MG touring screen with a x-creen clamped at the top. It seems to be just a little short. I’ve been waffling between CalSci and GIVI. Pros and cons exist for each… I agree, the CalSci “looks” best, and, I appreciate Steve’s knowledge and dedication. I worry a...
Good to see your post, Tennesee. I live riding in KY - did about 175 miles there last Monday😁. Let us know what you think of the new tires. I can’t wait to dump the stock Angels.
Haha😂😂… I did the same thing! Traded my ‘15 Norge, and a pristine Ducati ST3S - the Mandello is a nice blend of the two👍😁! Wife was happy to get a net reduction of 1 in the garage😉.
Sorry you got a double dose of trouble. I have an S, …just turned 5k miles this week, no problems with the Ohlins. In fact mine has opened up nicely, and was running great on a 175 mi ride down into Kentucky on Monday😁. Hopefully, you can nail down a diagnosis, and if nothing else, replace the...
Wonderful, wonderful adventure! I’m glad you didn’t pass that little car when that flatbed semi carrying hay was coming! And, I learned a new term … “water snot!” Hehehehe😂. Always great music choices🙌😁.
Well, posts #2 and #4 on page 1 (the previous page in this thread) have photos of the Aluminum bars. They “look” sleeker, more integrated. But, I wanted max protection. Hopefully, none of us will encounter a situation that requires it😉.
@Gutsy … Yes, I had the dealer install them when I picked up the bike. I like that any “impact” force is transferred to the frame, not the engine itself. And, although they don’t look as elegant, they are substantial (and, cheaper). I lightly sanded the scrape with 200 grit sandpaper, and...
@Kevin.NZ - Did you remove your horn, or is it behind the shield?
@South Westerly - I seem to recall another post here on the forum with a shield template that someone provided, based on one the poster made.
@scottmastrocinque - I had the same concern when I purchased a radiator guard...
What? No aero wings!? Hehe😁 I certainly appreciate the lineage nod, and time and effort put into this. And, I like certain aspects of the build. A no -switchback shorty exhaust would be interesting. Replacing the three “vents” with three circles is novel too. But, personally, I feel the long...
Has it had an oil change? Obvious question… new crush washer - and, drain plug snug? Just went out and checked mine - dry. Yeah, let us know - good luck!
