Well fellow Quota riders, the second rear wheel has developed cracks around several dimples. I contacted Alamogordo Cycle where I bought the bike and Chuck has...
Deryl, Sorry to hear about that...what will they be charging for this? Looking forward to seeing y'all in Datil, hopefully I'll have a new exhaust system...
John, A new rim and spokes with lacing and truing will run $350 or so. If I never have to replace a rear rim again, it will be worth it. Deryle & Wanda Mehrten...
Have any Quota owners out there tried replacing the Excel rims with BMW-type "outside spoke" rims from an early '90s R100GS? Rim widths and sizes (21 & 17)...
Sure, give it a try. I struck out finding a tubless, spoked rim a year or so ago. Per Buhanan's, part of the problem is the way our rear hubs are drilled, the...
I buy the 1st part of that, but not the 2nd. I've owned a '91 GS for the past 9 years, and have put over 50,000 miles on it with the original set of rims...
I got 20+k miles on my Quota now and had one rim replaced. Thursday I'll take of for a 4k mile trip and I guess I'll find out what happens :-) I also ordered a...
Hi All! When I first got my Quota a couple of years ago, I checked with Tim (Bondo) Bond of Whire Wheels Motorcycle Service, who is one of the premier...
Peter, Bummer man. I will mail out my hub today to Buchanan's. The Quota rider, Glen I believe, that is associated with Pro Italia told me he had MG pay for ...
John, I looked at the Guzzi wheels, too. The angle of the spokes and the drilling of the hub just wasn't the same. Yeah, Bondo has quite an excellent...
Hehehe...we definitely plan to be at Datil....in fact our wedding will be the sideshow entertainment for Saturday.... When I talked to the local wheel-building...
Guys, I have experienced the cracked rims when I just had my Quota (´96). Especially the Quota1000 first series (and other early nineties Guzzis) were known...
Well, I've started the process to get Moto Guzzi to buy the Iron Pig back under the California Lemon Law. It was the last time I ran out of fuel, going 70 in...
Kudos to You ! I'm still waiting to get my cracked rim replaced !...

I don't get it. This looks like an ad for some internet/mass- marketing firm. Did anyone get this link to work? I'm looking for a Mistral X-over. Does...
Stop arguing, there are some bikes that are better served vith a new owner. The fuel level sensor is something of the most simple in the Guzzi, When it starts...
