    Griso 1100 Crankshaft Clearance

    One other thing. Todd wrote that the plates all "have some type of tiny marking such as this". But as you can see by this better photo it isn't that tiny. You may call me stubborn, but I still wonder what may have caused it... Just want to know so I can prevent other identical situations...

    Griso 1100 Crankshaft Clearance

    The tensioner looks to be fine, and after I removed the main bearing I found out the cause of the clearance. Don't know how that happens.. Asked opinion to a couple of mechanics and their opinion were that It had bad lubrication, or because of the wear marks in the front and rear maybe the...

    Cali 850 1973 mistery

    After many tries we spotted a bad sparkplug on the left cilinder, the spark was not always strong. Changed it for an old one and she works fine. Must replace the cable plugs that go into the distributor and new sparkplugs again... Try to post some more photos of the bike. Thanks.

    Griso Oil Leak - Need some advice on how to deal with this

    Hi, My G11 has a small leak at that same spot, been like that for years. If the engine needs to be opened I´ll fix it with new gaskets... Hope I won´t have to remove the cilinders because of that leak becoming bigger.

    Clutch and front brake master cylinders

    Hi, I use Brembo RCS on both clutch and brake, and although expensive It was the best upgrade I did on my 06 1100 Griso. The brake feeling and power are much better, and the clutch works better too.
