    User Account Upgrade - Donations

    So I set up to donate but I use to contribute a set amount per year, it wants a monthly donation and so I did get close to the original amount. It doesn't seem to allow you to do a yearly on PayPal anymore only monthly.. Thanks for the site

    Help with mods on my 1200 Sport

    My bike ran well and has 10000 miles on it and the valves have just been recheck and were in spec. The new plugs were installed and a fresh stock air cleaner is installed. I have put fresh premium non-ethanol gas in. I have the GTM flash tool and have used it to reset the TPS and install my...

    Help with mods on my 1200 Sport

    I must say that when it comes to a long posts we are both doing some good work. Let me fill in some blanks and say I appreciate the extra time spent on this site helping others with answers when you can...but I'm trying to fix all the issues that were left to me by the last owner of the bike and...

    Help with mods on my 1200 Sport

    Whoa there big fella, First off I never said I was going to do any of the above mods that the prior owner of the parts had done nor did I say anywhere that I was disregarding Johns thoughts. This is why I dislike asking questions on the internet as things get misconstrued and then all hell...

    Help with mods on my 1200 Sport

    My bike ran ok with the flash and the aftermarket pipe (Pictured below) with the stock filter and the snorkel on it , but it ran very rich and only got 29-31 mpg and had a odd pop when cruising. I was told when I bought bike that the valves were adjusted by the seller and the bike only had 9000...

    Help with mods on my 1200 Sport

    I have a question for anyone that has done this sort of work. I had gotten a flash from GTM for my 1200 sport and decided to do some up grades and maintenance as the bike was running very rich and it was time. The new parts came from a Norge. It had the air box cut in a few ways shown in the...

    Snorkel removal

    Doing some maintenance to be sure that all is well on my 1200 sport. So, I have the flash and just removed the snorkel and checking the valves again and found a boot from the airbox to the throttle body that was not on correctly and was letting air in. One mystery solved but... With the snorkel...

    1200Sport front suspension questions

    So, reviving a old thread and in the future where we are now this stuff is still all witchcraft and blackarts. I guess what I'm wondering is if the Norge and Breva forks could be made to work better for cheaper on our Sports or that doing the cartridge forks on the 12s is the answer...

    My bike and the lake

    The swap itself is pretty easy and it makes all the difference in the world. I bought the Mana bars from Todd here at GTM and it makes it a proper riding position compared to other bikes for sure. It takes a little time making sure all the stuff fits right but the bar ends screw into the bars...

    My bike and the lake

    The bike has a long history in Seattle since 1995 with a mechanic at Moto International building it and racing... Its been passed thru hands of other like minded people and then it ended up in a garage and sat and fell into disrepair... Young lad named Isaac is into it big time gets and does all...

    My bike and the lake

    Got it... I just took it wrong then. I have had so many bikes in the last 10 years as they were plentiful and cheap for the most part. The Sport is a great bike and works well for sure. I have another odd bike to carve corners on in the garage on a bench... Mz Skorpion with a built motor in...

    My bike and the lake

    Scott this was my High Speed touring bike... Before I got into Guzzi's. It had no rear box nor did it have side bags on it. 185 HP and 105 Foot pounds of torque... Lived on the bike for 2 years and then decided it was time to let it go because of the stupidity of that much power.

    My bike and the lake

    To each their own I guess, the beauty of owning a bike is that its your platform to do as you see fit. I like my rear box because its function over form when I get where I am going and don't want to hang my helmets on the bike or carry them with me everywhere. I'm not to hot on the side bags as...

    My bike and the lake

    Just thought that I would share this picture of the bike and give my thoughts on the bike. I have thrown lots of time and money into it taking care of the things that I believe are shortfalls and issues. I have done the Starter interruptis fix and the bike got shoed with new tires... Pirelli...
