Re:Stelvio out and about pics here...

The wife and I spent six days in Boyer, WV this past August riding some of the back counrty roads. Below are pictures of our bikes / toy hauler and one of a typical West Virginny back country highway :S Both my the Stelvio and the wifes BMW F650 GS handled the back country highways just fine. Can't wait to go back next year to discover some new trails ;)

Last 1200km I passed on board of a truck, because 5nails from rear wheel went out. I was only 160km far from mother factory and nobody was able to help me, truck from home was most quick solution...

Goodness... then it really sucks that all workshops are closed on holidays!

How common is that on spoked wheels??

BTW: in France, most all of the larger supermarket chains have petrol stations with DIY credit-card pumps. On the countryside, you'll mostly find Intermarch
 
Re:Stelvio out and about pics here...

Manec......

What size tire and who is the manufacture of your rear tire?
You have a regular Stelvio correct and not the NTX?
I have not been able to find a knobby tire to fit the 5.5" rear rim.
 
Re:Stelvio out and about pics here...

Nice Roman, congrats on the big S... thanks for your Registry details as well. Look forward to many posts from you.
 
Re:Stelvio out and about pics here...

My Stelvio is model 2008 and czech importeur changed the rear wheel for 150/4,25" put tyre Metzeler Karoo T before NTX came to the shops. I run tis tyre for 2500km and changed for Metzeler Tourance exp, becuase from 2500km on grob tyres I used it maximum for 1km and on the street I feel the grobs, could not enjoy the music of 2valves.

The brocken nails from my wheel could have reason from tird party suplier, importuer took all costs and helped me:)
 
Re:Stelvio out and about pics here...

You can use the Pirelli MT 60 tires. 160 60 17
People riding Buells off road use them on the same size wheels as the regular Stelvio.
(180 55 17)
 
First day out.

I took my new NTX for a 250km running in ride through the mountains.

All nice and shiny! :laugh:

Without any doubt the 09 spec engine has the pulling power spread much lower than the 08. B)

Equally the handling on my new bike is far superior to the demonstrator I borrowed, I can't say if it's the NTX wheels and Tourance tyres or the demo being badly set up

Compared to my old 1150GSA (which I always use a benchmark) the Stelvio is a much lighter bike to handle and absorbs potholes ect far more smoothly, it's also much more comfortable, I doubt I'll need to buy any seat enhancement although as I've raised the seat I may need to invest in a Givi Screen
 
Re: First day out.

A tank that's almost half the volume of the GSA's tank must help I guess, in the handling.

Photos no worky. Not sure one can link to pictures on Facebook like that...
 
Re:Stelvio out and about pics here...

Here's a picture of my Stelvio Sorry about the framing, but the pilot was taking off when I rode up, so I had too shoot quick.

Re: Stelvio out and about pics here...

What d'ya expect, most are awaiting parts or repair, no? :silly: :whistle:
 
Re: Stelvio out and about pics here...

No Rene you exagerate ;)

Apart from the usual silly little niggles, misting dash, speedo sensor and fuel guage all is well and hunky dory.
Surely we can put up with that.
The big Stelvio still brings a smile to my face after 12000 miles :D
I asume all is quiet because we have all been out ramming loads of miles on our Stelvios in the great September sunshine.

Ps I had a queer feeling the other day, it was the Rocker 3 roadster I just couldn't take my eyes off it :oops:
 
Re: Stelvio out and about pics here...

Here's the latest picture of my Stelvio. It's waiting for parts, but it's all self induced. I sent the ECU to Todd so, I'm waiting for my PCV-AT. It all seemed like a good idea right up to the time I shipped the ECU off, now I thinking why didn't I wait till winter. :?
