Quota and Other Guzzi Riders, In an effort to find closer-to-home service for my Quota, I strolled into Modesto (California) Ducati and asked the nice lady at...
Forgive her.. she's at a Ducati dealership and they have desmo on the brain and just don't understand simple. Do it your self, I do all the maintenance on my...
I recently suffered a rather tragic engine failure on my 2000 Quota. For those of you who have not heard that it is advisable to lock your oil filter in place...
You will probably have to use the Quota oil pan...frame might now allow for the extended sport oil pan. Other than that, it should be fairly plug and play. If...
Hi Pete, I had heard from Greg Field (on another list) that this had happened. I'm so sorry to hear of it. With the number of failures of this type, I'm hard...
Or you can all go give Harpers $300+ and get the outsider like I did and never open the sump again. (Bad Dovie BAD BAD Dovie) I got my Rick Mayer seat today...
Dovie, Let the group know how the seat works out after a couple of ks. It looks real good, but the proof is in the long ride. Thanks for the photos and info. ...

Hi Pete, sorry to hear of such bad luck. I must say though that here in the Netherlands I have never heard of any such incident. It seems though as if there a...
Hi Pete, Just chiming in here. Personally I think the V11 motor with the stock throttle bodies and the fi remapped would be a torque monster. The quota dies...
I'm not familiar with Rick Mayers seats. I had mine done at Bill Mayers saddles in Ojai Ca. I like mine I have done 2 trips to Prescott Az which is 500+ miles....
I call Bill Mayer 1st and they were unwilling to do a seat without a picture of me sitting on the bike which frankly pissed me off. Rick asked a couple of more...
Drill your muffler, drill 4 1/2 holes at the back of the airbox cover like BMW did with the R90S and R100S and use K&N filter and the only thing that will stop...
Hey Dovie, Great pics on your site. I wanted to ask you about your GPS mount... I see you have attached to the crossbar on the handlebars. Do you have a...

Hi, I have my Quota now for 2 months and freqently look around this Yahoo group. As understand the Quota exouhaust will crack around the connection at the...
The flexible bellow is a good solution, most of the cracking is caused by overtightening the clamp. The rubber plug has no use, the same rear drive is used on...

The sad part is that no one like him is living in here. Zupi...
Not sure if I have a problem or not. On the front wheel, there is a spacer that sits between the two bearings. The axle then goes through the bearings and...
Hello Mike The first year I had my Q I had to cange those bearings three times and it was the same spacer as you are looking at. My was about 0,5 mm too short,...
Hi Mike I was right, the spacer was in the box of "Old parts maybe usefull" and the gaugecaliper says 51,49 mm so I guess the right should be 52,1 mm. Regards...
Erling, Thank you for checking. I have the bike put back together and it feels better for some reason. I'll take apart again and measure after I do a little...
