Have you all seen this show yet? It's not about Guzzi Quotas, but it is about the kind of moto adventure our bikes are made for. "Long Way Round" is on at 9 PM...
Hi all, I need to replace the rubber U-Joint boot on the Quota. Instead of removing the engine and transmission, I think it would be easier to just remove the...
how do they travel, are they going alone? are they using only one motorcycle each? they are 'rich and famous', it will be easier for them. I've seen something...
Hi Greg, This is Roger. It is not necessary to compress the shock. Put the bike on the centerstand. Once the wheel has been removed, remove the final drive. ...
Good tip, Roger. BTW, when you tuned your bike, did you re-set the TPS? Is it at the stock setting? Kevin r garlick <quotard@...> wrote: Hi Greg, This is...
Thanks so much for the tips...I'll let you know how it goes! ... the stock setting? ... This is important!!! CAREFULLY COUNT THE NUMBER OF TURNS it takes to ...
Hey Kev, I did not touch the TPS. I saw no need. With the PCIII and custom map, it dosn't matter. kevin seiler <seilerkevin@...> wrote: Good tip, Roger. ...
Hi Roger and Kevin, Thanks so much for the advice. I took the swing arm off this morning with no trouble at all. I did find that the carrier bearing for the ...
Hi all I just bought a black 2000 Quota 1100ES last saturday from a Guzzi Dealer in Vancouver B.C. Only 5300KM on it and the price was good - a year left on...
Hi Scott, Congrats on the Quota! If I'm not mistaken, the Gustafsson GT screen mounts where the original fairing screen mounts (replacing it). There are two...
Sure Russ, The original bearing is: NSK 6202 DU This crosses to: SKF 6202 RS FAG 6206 RSR FAF 206 P TORR 206 P MRC 206 SZ ...and others I'm sure. The raw...
I added a Gustafsson GT as soon as I got home with my new (to me) Quota. It mounts where the original flyscreen mounts - on the inside of the plastic fairing....
Thanks for the info Greg and Charlie It sounds like the Gustaffson GT is a good choice - although not a complete solution - I'll give it a try. of the 28...
Check the TPS with the engine off . Just turn the key on. I suggest that
you balance the throttle body at the same time. Makes a world off difference Russ...
One would think that Guzzi, with their renowned wind tunnel, would have been able to design a more effective fairing/windshield on the Quota. Oh, well... I...
perhaps you don't know the actual situation of the guzzi. if you order a spare part -at least here in italy - you won't have any response for months. I fell...
CORRECTION TO BEARING NUMBERS: I originally provided incorrect bearing numbers for the U-Joint carrier bearing. Here are the correct numbers: The original...
I replaced my stock Quota fork springs with the often recommended Progressive 11-1141 springs yesterday (also switched to 10W fork oil). Wow, what a...
Well, I suppose it was too good to last.... I've put about 2800 miles on my 2000 Quota since I got it a few months ago. It has a total of only 6800 miles....
Cracked wheels are pretty common on the Quota. Mine cracked about 5500 miles and both were replaced under warranty at about 7500 miles. Then the front cracked...
Great! I was thinking of asking the same Q. And that's all the answer I need, thanks. E. Pedersen, Denmark. ... From: r garlick To: Guzzi_Quota@yahoogroups.com...
