Hey Greg, Any chance of getting a simplified wiring diagram of that circuit. Would be much appreciated. Being a graphic designer a picture is worth a thousand...
Hi Lenny, Guzziology covers this well - available directly from Moto International, of course (http://www.motointernational.com/). I've also got some relay...

Have any of you received your February installment of the MGNOC newsletter? Mine hasn't come yet, and I have been anxiously waiting for it. -Mike (69 ambo, 77...
Hi, Les. I have a Wixom "Ranger" fairing on my Ambo. I like the looks alot, but at higher speeds it does weave. That's not a big prblem to me, since I tool ...
I received mine (in Silver Spring, Md) yesterday in the mail. Bruce ... From: Loopframe_Guzzi@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Loopframe_Guzzi@yahoogroups.com] On...
For some time now I've been protecting my cheap riding glasses (sun glasses during the day, polarized glasses at night) by putting them in a pocket of my...
Hi Robert, I would imagine that the extra weight of the Guzzi would make a difference. You are looking at something like an extra hundred pounds. The Guzzis...
oh yea, and depending on year, the gas cap could either be a flip cap, or a flip door/screw cap. the early SP saddles I mentioned had a lower driver section,...
Thanks, Bruce. I guess they are a little slow coming this month. -Mike (69 ambo, 77 vert) M.Jones, associate editor, Journal for the Study of Religions and...
Anyone have some suggestions for the best way to get rid of rust inside an eldo gas tank, & how to coat the interior so rust does not return? I really...
just comming up to the first 500 miles after the 850gt engine was rebuilt (barrels/pistons/bearings).. plan to change the oil and drop the oil pan.. whats your...
I'd recommend the POR-15 Cycle Tank Repair Kit www.por-15.com The kit includes a metal prep, which is basically phosphoric acid, that eats up rust pretty good....
Hi Neil, I would definitely re-torque the heads. Is there any reason in particular that you want to drop the oil pan? Just checking for nasty metal bits? Oil...
If your mechanic used a gooey assembly lube (like "Guzziology" recommends) it's not a bad idea to drop the sump and clean it out. I'd retorque the heads and...
Hi Tim, Thanks for the valuable insight. My R60/US is 436 lbs. I guess that would be over 100 lbs less than the V7. That would explain much of the more stable...
Greg, thanks for the highlights of Japan but I am curious about pic 14, that tan and white bike. It looks old but the motor looks like a Honda. Is this some...
Ditto... If you go the Por-15 route, I'd recommend getting an extra can of sealer. I've had good results with it, I've also had good results with course...
Hi Mike, That is a Honda...and a pretty new one at that - good eye! At least it looked new to me and not a custom. I did see some of the Triumph repops there,...
Hi Bob, I ordered the POR-15 cycle tank repair kit and read the instructions. The process calls for a very precise following of the procedure, such as drying,...
I always thought that assembly lube would just mix in with the regular oil as the temps rose. It does not become suspended in the oil as oil does in water....
Robert, I have a '68 R75/2 Conversion (/5 engine in a /2 chassis) that I have ridden into work the past couple days (75 deg here on Wed). I'd have to say that...
Another caution with the phosphoric acid - keep it off the chrome. If a drip is allowed to set even for a moment, it will discolor and permanently stain (burn)...
