    Thank God for a plastic front fender

    I'm glad you're OK too. Thanks for posting this (hard learnt) lesson.

    CARC - how hot can it get?

    I was in complete agreement with you, hhkiwi, until this thread prompted me to revisit the eni lubricant advisor. For my CARC Breva 1100, it now advises me to use 0.38 litres of Eni Rotra Bike Synth 75W-90...

    Water in final drive oil.

    I remember that PR mentioned this topic in an earlier posting. https://www.guzzitech.com/forums/threads/rain-testing-the-stock-carc-vent-myth-busting.9204/page-2

    norge trouble code LD 02

    My Breva 1100 has just developed a problem with the same symptoms. What was your eventual solution, please?

    Breva 1100 and Hepco-Becker Pannier Racks

    I had a problem when I fitted new HB frames to my Breva 1100 as the right hand side frame would not align with the bike's mounting holes. On examination, the holes in the right hand frame were seen to be in a different position to those of the left hand one. The supplier (in UK) replaced the...

    I say burn the thing!

    Many thanks for posting the service bulletin. Apologies for my ignorance, but I would be grateful if you could please let me know what components you normally need to remove in order to gain access to these inlet tracts on the Breva 1100. I perform all the normal servicing activities but...

    Swingarm Bearings

    Thanks, Iainw, I will try that if I cannot find a shaft collar this weekend. I'm been busy at work all week so I've been unable to make any progress. Cheers, MickE

    Swingarm Bearings

    Thanks Commando Tod. My swingarm bearings (together with the linkage bearings) had plenty of grease. I did notice, however, some marking on the RHS race and decided to change them. I'm glad you managed to remove your bearings successfully by hammering. I will keep on using the extractor...

    Swingarm Bearings

    I decided to replace the swingarm bearings on my B1100 but was reluctant to grind the old bearings out or to use heat or to hammer them. I therefore made up a very crude adaptor using some materials that I already possessed. Having proved the principle, the device needs more work as it's a...

    Brian, I'm sorry to be a bit dim on this, but which other thread are you refering to ? Regards, MickE

    Do I own a real Guzzi

    Sandy, I'm sure that you will soon forget what was said by the people you met. Just before I bought my Breva 1100, I met a customer in a bike shop who told me that the new machines were just as terrible as the old ones (he said that you cannot polish a turd!). So at least, in his mind, the...

    Faultless foreign foray

    This was the fourth year running that I have been on a tour in Europe on the Breva 1100. Travelling from England to Italy, it was the best trip yet. This organised tour included 17 bikes, about half of which were BMW's. As usual, the Breva, ran perfectly for the 2,800 miles. The other...

    Total Width of Norge Panniers when fitted to bike

    Prompted by this year's impending trip, I decided to at last make the effort to fit panniers to the Breva. Although I probably need panniers of 30 litre volume, I do like the idea of the top opening Givi E21's as recommend by Graham. As Givi do not make a fitting kit for the Breva 1100, I...
