Now that's a properly set up GC. Somebody is going to get a gem. Paul, are you all healed up? LT ... 10700 ... Motocorsa. New ... tankbag, Hot ... clamp, ... ...
All my parts are staying attached, LT. More physical therapy (ouch) to go, and a quick surgery to get this damned bolt out of my shoulder (ssssllleeeeeeppp...)...
Seems to be something in the water this year. Hobatz and Eagen went down this year too. Your DD headlight is in the new manual. I never mustered up the $$ to...
I've got a copy of LT's book on the way as well. Can't wait. Bill Nicholson Wichita, KS '99 GC __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail - PC Magazine...
Anyone tried these? I first got a set of Acerbis Rally Pro, but didn't like the coverage. I now have some BMW 1150GS handguards, but they don't clear the ...
Check out the ad for Guardian Motorcycle Covers on page 104. Yep - It's a GC in there! Bill Nicholson Wichita, KS '99 GC __________________________________ ...
Bill, I am running Renthal bars and bar ends on my GC so my clearance with the fairing is a little closer than the stock bars. I choose to use Buell handguards...
I know other members have had problems with leaky clutch slave cylinders, and at 18,000 miles the problem has struck my GC. I purchased a Yoyodyne clutch slave...

The Yoyodyne is a good unit. They can fail too, just like any OEM or other aftermarket variant. I sell the EVO units, because the design is very similar minus...
... This is an intentional change relative to stock parts, and intended to be an improvement. The stock master/slave diameter ratio on Ducatis and the GC...
I have a new EVO unit just waiting for the day my OEM leaks....it's still OK w/ 56K km. However my L fork has started to leak. Does anyone know if the KTM...
Sometimes bushing kits have two part #s - one with seals and one without. Thanks for reminding me to get fork gaitors for my GC before next summer. Don't...

You will not have this problem uisng a Yoyodyne with the Nissin master cylinder fitted to a Gran Canyon. The clutch will release when the lever is pulled 1/4...
I went to install the Letko 16t and it has "this side out" written on the plane "non offset" side, indicating that the "offset side" is to go on the inside of...
I have the same sprocket on my GC. It was confusing at first, but it does indeed mount flat side out. After you get it mounted (use a bit of Loctite on the...
Well, it turns out Munroe's have the seal kit in stock (also the foot peg rubber to replace the original which are fairly worn)! I'll be heading there this...
Chris, The bushings do wear, but I find that sometimes the process of separating the slider from the tube destroys the lining of the bushings. Because you have...
I went back in the garage after I posted. Took some measurements. When mounted, regardless of the side in/out, the chain guide on the swingarm does not align...
To answer the question I posed yesterday: You can use a two wire Ducati neutral sensor on the Gran Canyon as a direct replacement. The sensor I am refering to...

I can't help you with the 16 tooth mounting. I run a case-saver steel guard and the 15 tooth is the biggest I can run with that setup. LT ... Either ... Can't ...
Mike, your absolutely correct. I had to go to my electrics sectionin my book to find it. Sure enough, I even have a picture of the GC neutral switch and...
