    mph to kph?

    Going to Canada in August and would like to change the speed readout to kph, and then back to mph upon return to the States. Surely this can be done, but can't find it in the manual. Anyone done this?

    DIY Air Intakes

    Convinced I could do better, I removed the K&N pods (dirty, nasty little things) from the throttle bodies on my 1200 Sport and replaced them with filtered velocity stacks. Trial and error led to a solution that I am very happy with. And they look good too! Shame they’re covered up. The...

    Anyone replaced the airbox with a pod filter? I'm going to dive in and do it this winter, and am interested in the experience of anyone who's gone before me. Thanks!

    CAN-bus LEDs

    I recently came across a product(s) and company you may want to consider. The company is Inertia LED and the products are CAN-bus LED bulbs. I put the RY10W in my 1200 Sport and WHAMMO!, what a difference! The testimonial pics on their website DO NOT EXAGGERATE. No resistors or diodes or...

    Want to transform the stock seat on my 1400 Custom into a solo saddle by trimming about 6 or 7 inches off the rear. Who do you recommend for such a modification? Thanks in advance.

    Bliss

    Took the Sport out for a spirited jaunt this afternoon - 60 sunny degrees plus - on some of my favorite local roads here on the high desert. Life does not get better.

    GTRX Hpipe

    I promised Todd feedback, so here it is for all to see. Finally got around to installing the Hpipe on my Custom a few days ago, and took her for a shakedown spin yesterday. No rattles and nothing loose, so I guess I didn't screw up the install. The Hpipe is a stout, beautifully made piece of...

    LED bulbs in turn signals?

    Want to run amber LED bulbs in my turn signals. Has anyone done it? I know that the dash controls the turn signals, but don't know whether I need load resistors or whether I risk messing up the dash. Thanks.

    Transform the ride quality on your Custom

    As part of performing the first service on my Cali Custom, wanted to see if adjusting the preload and rebound damping on the stock shocks would make a discernible difference in ride quality. THE ANSWER IS A RESOUNDING YES! Manual says preload for rider only should be 13 (turns from the top)...

    bag mount bracket installation on custom

    The line that runs from the shock to the canister prevents installation of the bracket for for mounting the leather guzzi bags I purchased. How did you solve the problem? New shock with no canister/line? Rotate the line inward to clear the bracket? Kinda pissed that there was no mention of...

    Yours have these?

    While polishing the headers on my Custom, noticed pinky-sized perfectly round holes in the right header, one up top on the inside a couple of inches from the port, and one on the bottom just before the heat shield. Also, some bluing adjacent to the port mostly on the inside. Left header...

    thread pitch

    Hello all, Anyone know what the thread pitch is on the 4 m12x65 bolts that secure the rear wheel to the CARC? 1.25, 1.5, or 1.75? Want to replace with Ti and the manuals don't specify. Yeah, I know I could remove one and check, but thought I would ask first. The bolts are exposed in the open...

    1200 sport footpegs

    Anyone know what Ducati, Honda, Kawasaki, KTM, Suzuki, Triumph, or Yamaha shares the same rider footpeg dimensions as the 1200 sport? Want to go with Rizomas, and they make adapters that fit models of the brands listed, and of course Guzzi isn't listed. Thanks!

    Titanium rotor bolts are pretty, but....

    ...put 'em on your 1200 Sport and you'll lose your speedometer/odometer. Swapped the (ugly-ass) stock steel ones with the titaniums and voila, got my speedometer/odometer back! Because titanium is non-magnetic, won't work with the Hall-Effect speed sensor. Damn!
