    Tappet noise & strange result of valve adjustment

    Makes sense. Really don't see how rollers over flaters really solves much. I've had no issues with my flat tappet motor (w/cam recall of course at PDI) for 33K miles. And the lash adjustments have been unnecessary in the last two attempts. I don't do short trips, nor do I let it idle while I...

    Tyres for Griso

    Michelin Pilot Road 3's; going to the 4's next change. Excellent wear and grip IMHO.

    Lithium battery

    When my 6+ year old OEM Yuasa dies, I'll be hunting one of these lithium units.

    old stock new griso

    '09 flat-tapper here with 32K miles . . . . I'd jump all over that NOS in a heartbeat despite the need to invest in the cam recall service that others have mentioned. These bikes are tanks. Don't think the newer models have appreciably changed the ride esthetic, so enjoy your ride at a fantastic...

    Termignoni - pop & crackle?

    Hey Brent. Todd offers a brilliant setup for your Griso when your warranty period concerns end. Me, I've been running an unbaffled Termi on my '09 Griso for better than 30K miles and it also sometimes pops on decel. I've learned to love it and know how to quiet it down if I want to by feathering...

    Griso as a Commuter?

    I commute 42 miles/day most days of the week year round with no need for plug-in clothing (gotta love Florida for that; terrain not so much). I actually find the weight to be a stabilizing factor in almost all circumstances, Griso ergos are great for a commuter machine. As with any bike, stay...

    Griso 8V: Change alternator belt in chassis ?

    That has got to be a Griso record, I'm impressed. Any unexpected big mechanical/electrical/hydraulic letdowns along the way you wish to share?

    Erratic neutral display light.

    Thanks John! Ordered it today. :mrgreen:

    Waaahhh...my motorcycle broke! (Rear reaction rod coupler)

    Re: Waaahhh...my motorcycle broke! (Rear reaction rod couple Thanks for posting this, as I never thought to check that connection. And how does she ride with the reaction bar removed?

    Erratic neutral display light.

    I've had this erratic condition for some time now and attempted to get to the gearbox neutral detent switch after removing the fuel tank and airbox . . . couldn't even find it after all that effort. The condition isn't problematic unless you're parked with the side stand down with the engine on...

    Front Brake Switch Replacement

    PM sent (I think). Thanks Todd.

    Front Brake Switch Replacement

    Already hit it with cleaner. This should be a sub-$20 part based on what I've come across for random Brembo part nos.

    Front Brake Switch Replacement

    Well the rear brake lamp switch mounted below the front brake master cylinder is acting erratically. Would this be Brembo part 98.5029.40 or something equivalent? Thanks all.

    What Happens When You Lowside a Griso

    Glad all is well and you learned from the squidfest. Wish I had the twisties you have access to . . .

    2nd CAM and TAPPET recall !!!

    FYI I had the recall done prior to delivery of my leftover '09 Griso in January 2010. About to cross 24K miles now with no issues (last two valve adjusts required no adjustments). I ride on average about 160 miles a week (40 mile legs each trip) on 95% open highway in mostly hot/humid southern...

    Shifting Problems on 2012 Norge

    Drain and refill the gear & CARC boxes with Redline Shockproof Gear Oil. You should see an improvement. Otherwise rack up some miles and get things bedded-in. I'm close to 24K miles on my gearbox and shifting is excellent; finding neutral is never an issue. I'm also chasing an intermittent...

    Gear Neutral Indicator

    Thanks Pete. I'll look again for the twelfth time. It appears the location changed maybe from the 4V to 8V machines?

    Griso 8v Newbie

    Ahh just let her pipes age gracefully and develop a most beautiful gold hue.

    Gear Neutral Indicator

    Fortunately this issue only affects the bike intermittently when the sidestand is down and I need to run the engine (hardly ever--my routine is up on the bike, sidestand up, hit the starter and GO). After 23K miles, I know where neutral is by feel. Nonetheless, I removed the fuel tank and airbox...

    Gear Neutral Indicator

    My dash neutral indicator started flickering recently . . . what's loose, and how do I tighten it? Thanks.
