    Norge 2V: Fuse D keeps blowing!

    Thanks for all the replies. Good stuff. But here's the mystery, I took all the now loose stuff (relays, fuse blocks) that was under the seat during my troubleshooting and put it back where it originally was and PFM, the bike does not blow the fuse when turning on the ignition! Did this step in...

    Norge 2V: Fuse D keeps blowing!

    Fuse blows immediately when turning on the ignition. I'll check if it makes a difference if the emergency stop switch is in run or stop when I turn the key. Will check soon as I get home. Thank you

    Norge 2V: Fuse D keeps blowing!

    2007 Norge. Fuse D (15A) in the auxiliary fuse block blows. It's fed by the 30A fuse in the Main Fuse block by the battery. Fuse D supplies four primary things according to my shop manual. I've checked all the relays and obvious stuff short of tracing every conductor to every using unit to find...

    Breva Headlight Adjustment

    I want to raise the headlight beam a bit. To save me some trial and error, what direction (down or up) will the headlight go if I turn the adjusting screw (left side) clockwise? thank you.

    Rear Cardan Breather Bolt

    Thanks John, I'll take your word for it that it's there on Beemers. Like an Easter Egg hunt. I couldn't find it looking at the fiche. Happy Easter!

    Rear Cardan Breather Bolt

    thanks for that information. I still wonder why the BMW doesn't have a breather on the rear cardan like Guzzi

    Rear Cardan Breather Bolt

    Hi Tony, that makes sense and I was sort of thinking along those lines as well. I was just curious what exists inherent in the design that requires that. The transmission does not have the breather, at least not one like the cardan and I would think that the same principle would be involved...

    Rear Cardan Breather Bolt

    Why does the rear cardan require a breather bolt? (please don't reply: so the rear cardan can breathe!). BMW doesn't have one. What is the consequence of not using a breather, ie just bolt the hole shut? Thank you.

    Arizona Road Trip

    Wife and I just returned from a 10 day trip in Az. It's a great place to ride. Has a little of everything: mountains, desert and in between. Law Enforcement is a bit enthusiastic though, but our on board "safety devices" kept us out of trouble. If you've never been to Az, do yourself a favor...

    Continental Conti-Motion Tire Review

    I agree tire handling traits are very subjective as suspension settings etc... However a tire reduced to its wear indicators is not a matter of interpretation. It's just plain worn out. Of course there are many variables affecting tire wear that got it to that state. As another point of...

    Safety Heads Up: Breva 1100 Throttle Cable Routing/Brake Lev

    Hi, Just a head's up to check your throttle cable routing on your Breva 1100. One of the throttle cable's adjuster nut was resting on the leading edge of front brake lever in the vicinity of the hinge point which was not allowing the brake lever to fully release when letting go of it. Was just...

    Continental Conti-Motion Tire Review

    Installed a set of Conti Motions on my Griso 8V to check the bang for buck. Fantastic handling (much better than the original OEM Qualifiers) and stick like glue. Rear tire is $80 cheaper than mainline rubber. Great feedback and neutral steering. HOWEVER, REAR worn to wear markers on the sides...

    Griso Suspension settings thread!

    The biggest issue I had with the handling of my Griso was that it wouldn't hold a line once on it's side. I could get it over pretty effortlessly but It would take a bit of pressure on the inside/downhill bar to maintain the line. That coupled with damping that for me wasn't set right made it...

    8V spark plugs torque

    Wish I had read this thread a day before I did the break-in service on my 8V Griso. I was lucky to get the threaded housing that was left over after it sheared off the plug out of my cylinder head. The other thing that made this a pain in the ass was that NO ONE local, auto parts stores...

    Request for Hi-Res photo of Emissions Label (USA)

    Hello, I would really appreciate it if someone would take a hi-res close up photo of their Emissions label and send to me. I realize most will have removed that label the day they brought the bike home, but just in case someone still has it on the bike, it would be very helpful. PM me if you do...

    Breva 1100 Seat Raise Solution

    The stock seat on my Breva is way too low. I'm 6'2" with a 34" inseam. I tried to get a raise using an Air Hawk. It definitely helped, but did not like the "feel" nor did it raise me enough. Just too much like a water bed. Didn't feel secure during spirited riding. Plus, I wanted to get close...
