    END OF MY TETHER

    [I'm sorry. I don't think its a 'Product' problem. That's odd, the bike is the product and the bike I have is the problem, doesn't that make the product the problem? I think it is a combination of dealer/importer problem and owners who expect infallible perfection in every aspect of their...

    You guys are all great, you gotta be you're all bikers... :D I read all the bad stuff but figured like most forums it was only the problem bikes that made the headlines, a bit like when I researched aprilia some years back, only I hadn't realised it was the majority of guzzis that had...

    END OF MY TETHER

    I chose the bike based on what it should do not what it might do if I was lucky. I'm not slinging mud at Guzzi in general just the one I bought. Check through my early posts, I was very positive throughout my problems despite being stranded many times My Stelvio is just coming up to 4 years...

    END OF MY TETHER

    Pete, you've been a great help to me and many other people on this site and the aprilia forum we are both members of :D but I feel the same as Glen, You say it isn't the bike for him, that could be said of me too but consider this, I have been riding since 1972, 1978 on the road and have never...

    (UK) Advice on where to advertise (UK)

    Thank you, I may just sit it out, had a lot of changes to my life style recently, maybe I should wait until next year when I plan on moving to a house with a garage. I love the bike and this site, the site has been a great help and a place of reassurance that once sorted the Stelvio is a great...

    (UK) Advice on where to advertise (UK)

    Thanks for the reply. You're right of course I do want to keep it, after all I've gone through to get it running right it should be a keeper. The bike isn't kept where I live, it's 25 mils away so hopping on for a 50 to 60 mile evening ride is out of the question, a lot of weekends are now...

    (UK) Advice on where to advertise (UK)

    I'm going to sell the Stelvio. I will have very little time to ride for the rest of this year then I'll have to wait until spring time anyway. It'll be the first time since 1978 I have been without a bike, maybe I'll buy a winter hack just so I can keep up my 100% biking record... :whistle...

    Front Brake Rotors - not warped just not floating

    Check out apriliaforum.com tuono or rsv section and search discs, or bobbins, you'll find loads of info and "how to" on freeing up the petals on the spring washers. You are, of course, right it shouldn't happen, if it is this problem the wobble is usually felt at low speed for some odd reason...

    Front Brake Rotors - not warped just not floating

    Having been an aprilia rider for over 8 years I am used to this problem. If they are the same fixings that have a petal shaped washer on the inside of the disc/rotor, we used to use a flat sharp knife to slide under and lift either every petal or every other one to take the pressure off and...
