    Griso Suspension settings thread!

    Fully clockwise for both damping settings is their firmest settings, so any anticlockwise adjustment softens them, that is absolutely correct. Now, it could be that the thinking behind firmer compression damping is that the forks and shock compress less, and so rebound less, giving less of a...

    EICMA 2014

    I'm gonna try to get to Intermot at Cologne this year (Oct 1st to 5th). Cologne's a lovely place, and I find the Germans a little less, shall we say, feisty, than the Italians... :whistle:

    Potential Guzzisti--Please advise--

    Apart from an '06 Griso my other Guzzi purchases have been older bikes, an '81 V50, 70's T3 and my current '86 Le Mans, and I can honestly say I've never had a big issue with any of them other than service items. In my opinion they are no less reliable and no more likely to break than any other...

    tonti & loop pix thread

    Here's my mkIV Le Mans as she currently stands, but she's gonna change again soon, I've just picked up a sweet little tank from a Ducati 350 which'll mean changing the seat, which means altering the wiring, which means...

    Great looking V7 scrambler on OC CL

    Another scrambler, this time at the bikeshed.cc event #3 in London's Docklands area last month. The Bikeshed events are becoming a major attraction centering around cafe/brat/tracker style custom bikes, and the Event 3 was a cracking show.

    Made In China

    Correct Brian, but it always amazes me how people choose not to believe how much of their life and possessions are owed to the Chinese. Almost everything we buy and use has a connection of some sort to China. Even high end stuff uses Chinese components these days.

    Made In China

    I think the answer would shock people. I wonder how much of a Harley is made in China..?

    1994 Lemans Ultima Edizione finally got here

    There's something about that big 2-valve engine that stirs my blood, looks like a man's engine! Sadly the bodywork doesn't rock my boat so much, that's why I'm changing my mk4. They are still lovely bikes to ride, congrats on the purchase, I'm sure you'll love it. Tyre pressures are 33psi...

    Need your help with Le Mans mk4

    I don't suppose there's any chance you have the spare keys for the bike..? I've only got one set, and while getting a new ignition key isn't a problem, getting a spare for the fuel cover is proving a nightmare :(

    Need your help with Le Mans mk4

    Blimey, it hasn't changed much at all. Wheels are now black (not for long...) and obviously the exhausts are different. Looks much nicer with the red wheels I think.

    Need your help with Le Mans mk4

    I've still got it alright, and thanks very much for the background history. Keep hold of that indicator, they're rarer than hens' teeth! The fairing's off now, and the bike undergoing a cafe-ish makeover; I initially tried to find a stock headlamp fairing in order to put it back to standard, but...
