Zupi, I made a crossover and posted pics in Quota exhaust. I tried emailing direct to you but the email comes back as undeliverable. I also included a shot of...
Hi Price, The crossover looks good. Is that painted alluminized steel or stainless or what? I'm interested to see what you come up with for header pipes, etc....
Hi Greg, Its made with mild steel. Non aluminized. I have been using Duplicolor high temp black paint. The stuff is pretty tough. Once its cooked on it is a...
Hi Price, Those prices seem quite reasonable. I'm certainly interested in seeing what you come up with the for the complete system. Are you planning to have a...
Sounds very appealing to me too! _____ From: Guzzi_Quota@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Guzzi_Quota@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of papasloan Sent: Tuesday, January 03,...
Zupi, Regarding pictures of the "2 into one into 2 exhaust" that I implemented on the Quota. I would like to delay posting pictures until I know what effect...
I broke the cast metal thing on the bottom of the tumbler of the latch holding my topcase on the bike. I want to switch it out for one of the other tumblers,...
Hi Greg. On my designs there is no need for a crossover in front. I connect the pipes in front of the motor Then run 1 pipe back. I have done several different...
Hi Alfred, Thats the reason I keep making different exh systems. I enjoy seeing what they do on a dyno. I have also been a firm believer in Power Commanders....
Hi Price, Thanks for posting the additional pictures. I'm glad to see that you are putting a crossover right up front and as close the exhaust ports as...
Greg, The pic PDR0068 is Todds bike. And it is a torque monster. We will be making a new set for him shortly to play with on the dyno. Price ... ports ... I ...
Check out the photos of the work to do in resurrecting the 2000 Quota I purchased over the holidays. There is a shot of the crank, the crack and the corrosion....
Appaerently MZ has jumped ship and fled the US. Not surprisingly, the head of marketing for them here was none other than John Stoddard, the former head of...
Some of us old guys remember buying gasket material at the auto-parts store and tracing the old gasket (or the valve cover or other bit itself) onto it, and...
That explains why a number of the Guzzi dealers I order from also carry MuZ. Since these are really Chinese bikes in East German clothing, they ought to be...
Hi Ken, Sorry to see the problems you have to deal with. Was it ever run while setting outside for 3 years? Or, did it just sit there and suffer? If you...
Greg, The bike just sat outside the garage. It is in decent condition, considering the neglect, but it does seem a shame that the PO couldn't have at least...
Ken, I have spare valve cover gaskets and sump gaskets, f you get to where you need them. I only ask that they be replaced when they are available. Bert ...
If I recall it right, a West German businessman, Karl Heinz something, bought MZ in the mid nineties when there was very generous subsidies available from the...
Hi Ken, Sounds like you have a pretty good plan for getting her back on the road. I would definitely recommend stainless over clear-coated steel for the...
I second Greg's sentiment on keeping your Eldo and T5. There are days when a loop-frame or a Tonti are just the right thing - and there are other days when...
Hi Price, Contact me off-list...I have a little exhaust project that I would like to work with you on. Thanks! greg @ thisoldtractor.com Regards, Greg Bender ...
Oh, sometimes on a slow country road I don't like the Quota because I have to hold it back too much, where the Eldorado just putts along. I also don't favor...
Thatīs because you canīt lanesplit in Texas. I canīt think of any bike I would rather be on in heavy California or south of the border traffic than the...
Well, driving frequently in Mexico in-town commuter traffic as I do, I prefer the DR650. It can jump curbs and potholes easier, and it's simply more nimble...
