    Stelvio Front Brake Light Switch Adjust

    Had the same issue exactly. Took a piece of heat shrink tubing around the actuator and shrunk it on there.

    Alpina Spokes a death wish?

    Well I ended up picking up another new '09 that I found in stock down at the Georgia dealer (European Motosports). Bought a couple of $100 tickets to Atlanta, flew down there and road the bike home. But what is of interest is when I put my first new tire on that bike, I decided not to mount it...

    Value of '09 Stelvio

    Just flew down to Georgia to pick up a new '09 with 2 year warranty for $9995. Probably could have negotiated a few more dollars off put they picked me up and drove me the last 60 miles and it is a long story, but I didn't have time to negotiate. I would say without the warranty and low...

    Alpina Spokes a death wish?

    I noticed you have a GS and a Tiger. Can you tell me more why you like the stelvio over the GS and Tiger?

    Alpina Spokes a death wish?

    So everyone should get a kick out of the end of this story. So as I said, the bike was towed to the nearest dealer that could put a tire on for me which of course was a Harley shop. When I went to pick up the bike, I discussed with the technician what he had found. He reported that the old...

    Alpina Spokes a death wish?

    You guys are right that I may be jumping to conclusions. The fact I sensed some drift prior to the blowout of the sidewall tells me it leaked out fairly slowly at first and the sidewall blewout because it was running flat. But the tire had been installed only a few days ago and could have been...

    Alpina Spokes a death wish?

    Well you are looking at one lucky dude. Yesterday riding two up at 65 miles per hour, my brand new tire that I had checked the pressure on just before the ride blew out. Moments earlier I had a vague sensation of looseness which I blamed on a strong cross wind. Somehow, I managed to...

    Does this thing take a special oil filter wrench?

    Take any of the plastic end cap wrench variety of the correct diameter with any number of flutes, then place a strip of coarse sandpaper rough side to the wrench 180 degrees around, place another strip of the same rough side to the filter 180 degrees around. Tap the wrench over the filter with...

    new 2011 Stelvio viewed!

    I have only seen pictures, but I think the 2011 is beautiful! I can't believe they managed to increase the fuel capacity that much without making it look like a pachyderm like the GS adventure. For those who will be riding back roads, rather than no roads, I think with the cast wheels is the...

    Factory Engine guard message

    I am not sure i have the same vintage Hepco Beckers since they don't involve the radiator at all, but I had a slow speed low side because the bike hit some sand and they saved the bike any damage. I looked it all over carefully and the guards (minor scrape) but the bike is fine. Sure am glad I...

    Noise source found

    I think you need to check again on the adjustments. When I got my bike from the dealer, I had the same bottoming out experience. Turns out I think he thought a click was a revolution of the adjust, when in fact the clicks are small detents(about ten per rev) which you have pay attention to...

    Buzzing mirrors

    Anyone solve the problem of the buzzing sound that comes from th mirrors on the U. S version? I mean bsides the conversion kit back to Euro turn signals. The noise is ridicules but the spring washer set I am envisioning is inside the mirror adjusts is resonating at 3800-4500 rpm. Drives you nuts!
