Hello all,
This is my last post for at least 12 months - i sold my nevada back in april due to a slipping clutch. I was also trying to get a job as a snowboard instructor & was too lazy to make chains for my beloved nevada.
Anyways, i intend to buy another Guzzi in Germany & take it to the...
This may get me in trouble for talking complete & utter nonsense, but after inviting other members to share stories, i felt it necessary to share my own. This one happened quite recently, mid January, when i headed south of the border, down..... Victoria way.
One day i was looking on google maps...
I just installed a new front tyre without applying talc to the tube. It appaers the shop that fitted the metzeler didn't, either. However, the tube is a heavy duty michelin airstop about 4mm thick with a metal valve & the rim itself is knurled. Should i be worried? I completely forgot about this...
Just a hair-brained idea floating around my head for quite some time, i have long fantasized about attaching a car engine to a 'Guzzi box. The candidates were an alloytec V6 from a commodore, 6G72 "cyclone" V6 from a magna, & any boxer 4 from a subaru. However, the subaru & mitsubishi engines...
Hello all, i have recently been on Guzzi's Australian site after seeing no Griso at Motociclo, & guess what? I saw no Griso in the model line up there, either. Now the v7's & v9's are fine bikes, but the look, the fact that it's got none of those electrogizmos of the other big blocks, & i don't...
Hello all, just drained my oils for a major service today (10,000 + gauze filter). Now, main transmission was clear with only a slight tinge of blue, & yielded 1 litre (was worried about leaks & dirt), but my final drive came out milky! No leaks, but I did have to re-thread the breather, & i've...
Hey fellows, stupid question here, i'm going to do a thorough service on me nevada - including cleaning the sump & secondary filter. I have both gasket cork & paper on the ready, will cork do? Or are there metal bits in the original gaskets? Thanks in advance
Good evening,
Here i am once again posting about a problem. It's been a long time. Now, i'm planning on riding through the snowy mountains late january, & i have an issue - the pegs make my feet tingle at highway speed (100+ km/h) after about half an hour. I start feeling hard vibration during...
Ladies & gentlemen,
Ever since i serviced the cable on my nevada, the speedo needle started bouncing. It was all over the place when i used lithium, & graphite powder isolated it to below 45km/h. Any ideas? It spins smoothly above that, & i know it is the cable as i tested the other parts which...
Hello there! I am trying to sell my beloved Guzzi in order to move overseas more easily. I have just had someone inspect it & was concerned about the noise it makes when in neutral with the clutch released. She tells me it's engine knock, as it sounds like chains, but the noise fades with...
Hey all, i have seen a few crossover pipes online that replace the canister "expansion chamber", & i've read some posts on this site by people who have installed them, but they cost around $60-$90, & appear to be little more than a piece of stainless steel pipe. With this in mind, i'm thinking...
Hey all. Winter has come, & my bike is now surging a little. It was worse, but i got out the vacuum gauges, turned the fuel down about half a turn, & halved the issue to a gentle surge. Now, when servicing the bike, i noticed the filter isn't sitting properly, & the rubber gasket from the old...
Hey all, been a long time & an accident between drinks (& once again, very minor damage - are all Guzzi's this tough?). Currently, i'm servicing it & due to the time consuming nature of replacing the air filter, i am thinking of either replacing or modifying the crankcase breather box.Top goes...
So, about a week ago i did both the tyres & with them off i decided to do the forks as well. In a prevoius post concerning the forks, the left fork was jammed on, thanks to encountering rust that was flaking the chrome off. I have since taken the blinker off & pressed it out using a scissor...
I discovered the bolt in the picture after removing my front wheel. There are 2 of these. They are located on top of the axle right on the bottom of the fork reservoir. All i could find online about these bolts were that they are hex socket screws, but nothing about their function. I also found...
Hello all, first post here. I bought a 2002 Nevada 750 club from a couple on a farm. I can't seem to get the idle right, as after a ride it either races to 2000rpm if i turn the idle screws 180 degrees clockwise or constantly stalls if i turn it back 180 degrees. It also surges badly in 1st, not...
