    Dreams are dead

    :cry: Well I doubt there will be a Stelvio in my future, at least not anytime soon. There will not even be much riding if any soon. I had a CT scan on my neck yesterday and today had my Spine Surgeon review it. Some backround: I have had alot of MX injuries over my life and quite a few...

    Comparison questions

    Thanks for the replys guys. pyoungbl, I just went and sat on one tonite at GP cycles in San Diego. They have one on the floor. I might go back friday and demo it. They said I can demo it for less than 5 miles so as not to rack up miles on a non demonstrator. But they had it there, unsold as of...

    Rain-testing the Stock CARC Vent - Myth Busting ?

    Lannis, Thanks for the clarification. I did know that the CARC is the entire final drive unit. I mistakenly was refering to the vent that the OP was spraying with water. I assumed that had a check valve of sorts in it. If it is just a cap, then making a vent line that goes to a drier place...

    Comparison questions

    Thanks for the quick replies. Todd, I agree that on most modern bikes it takes some fiddling to get them sorted properly. I just sold a KTM 530 EXCR and man that took a bunch of dialing and adjusting and jetting to get think running right. It overheated alot before I got the jets right. So I...

    Real Newb Question - Gas Light & Tank Volume

    I do not own one of your bikes so I can not speak specifically of your bike, but motorcycle tanks are NOTORIOUSLY inaccurate compared to car fuel tanks. The size and shapes makes it much harder to get an accurate reading. Then I know on my BMW it makes a huge difference if I am going uphill or...

    Rain-testing the Stock CARC Vent - Myth Busting ?

    Not owning a Stelvio {yet} but having alot of riding experience I was trying to look at this objectively and impartially. It looks as though the CARC is just a check valve of some sort that allows breathing, but no water in, basically. What would the objection be or obstactles be to screwing in...

    Wannabe N00b

    Wow, a personal welcome from the guy who filmed and narrated "On Any Sunday"....just kidding. Thanks for the welcome. You are making hard to not want one. The new NTX with 8.5 gal tank is a huge selling point for me. Couple that with great suspension, cool sound and a ton of style and...

    2012 Stelvio NTX Valve Adjustment Procedure

    The Guzzi looks as easy as my old BMW R1100RT oilhead motor. That is a big plus. What is the book spec on how often this needs to be done? I know that how the bike sounds and starts is a factor on when you do an adjustment, but is there a mileage spec recommended?

    Wannabe N00b

    Wow, 37 views and not a single reply, hello, welcome, or response to my questions. Way to make a guy wanna buy a MG. I love the look and style and feel like it compares well to the GS/GSA. Even the slightly snobby BMW sport tourers forum was more welcoming and warm than here. I realize I...
