Hi, I am planning an oil & filter change. Should I use silicon seal when re-installing the oil pan? __________________________________________________ Do You...
... just using the gasket alone .If you use silicon then it seems next oil change it would be a mess geting theold stuff off.I do not see ant need for it. JW...
Eeeks! No. Don't forget the 4 bolts in the middle of the pan. It'll drop right off. Do the filter, clean gunk, etc., and put it back. No sealer, especially...
I bought my Jackal in Oct. of '99 and I finally had to put a NEW pan gasket on at the last oil change. The original lasted through about 10 changes ;) I change...
Nope! Some clown had done that on my Jackal (DPO) and it took ages to get the pan off nicely (though do make sure you get *all* the bolts out, there are some...

Thanks John. It may come to that for me. Filing a rod down a little at a time is better than endless attempts to adjust. I have the ball. Perhaps a rod...
I'd like to intoduce myself as a new owner of a new 03 Stone Touring Model. I picked it up today from the nice folks at Moto International in Seattle. So far I...
... Hi Dave, Congratulations and welcome. I cut off the heal shifter on my Jackal with a die grinder. Give the taillight some time. Maybe it will grow on...
Welcome to the group, Dave. I think that you'll probably grow to love the Guzzi more & more as time goes on. I've grown quite accustomed to the heel & toe...
HI, change the tail light if you can but not the shifter, learn to heel down, it is faster and you will sometimes have problems trying to toe up all the time....

Hi Dave. Welcome to the group. I predict that you will grow to love that Guzzi. I presently own a 1974 850T and a 2000 Jackal. I have owned about forty...
Thanks everyone for the welcome! I rode again today and am getting very comforable on the Stone. I may even get used to that shifter. I think I'd like a little...

Patrick, I forgot to mention that I replaced the stock horns with 130db Fiamm's, as well. And my first Dunlop went 14k. On my second one now. For the record, I...
Dave, You might want to consider upgrading your stock system with braided steel lines before taking the plunge with the dual disc setup. If it isn't enough...
Dave might also try a different composition of brake pad. Believe Guzzi Tech has a discussion of pads. They also have a discussion of effective ways to...
