    Noob needs advice on 09 Norge Idle

    If your stepper is stuck in the cold start position (it is an electrical stepper motor driving a small variable air valve), it will give a correct cold start as you describe. As the engine warms up, it is supposed to reduce the idle air to the throttle bodies. If it cant move, it will supply too...

    An SFC?? 🤩 If you are a pro and working on it, you are doin good. If you are not, and you own it, you are doing great!! My dealer had one in '83, sold to California. Never seen one since.

    Return of the Le Mans ?

    When MG introduced the V35/V50 platform, followed by V65, Lario etc. over the years morphing into V-85, all others became Big Blocks. Tonti started with V-7 Sport, earlier Ambo/Eldo were Loop frames. Later came Spine and Carc, these are not Tonti. Remember how Ducati's Pantah became the new...

    1997 California 1100i not getting to speed

    All the cable driven speedos are 10% optimistic (keeps you out of trouble with the cops). 27 years? You must find a way to pull and have the injectors cleaned. Then a full proper tune up. Maybe find a pro. The bike is well worth it.

    Inappropriate?

    Many flags have a "back side", some don't. The Canadian flag looks correct from either side. You should be able to view the flag from either side, depending on where the wind blows, without feeling compromised, though one side puts the colors "out of order" in many cases.

    Hello from Italy

    Growing up in Norway (I left at 27), I have never been to Nordkapp. You have probably seen more of the country than I have. And on a Moto Guzzi to boot! I am envious 🤩. Welcome to the forum.

    Everything you ever wanted to know about the 1200 8V engine tappet failure but were afraid to ask.

    I stand to be corrected, but I do not think the 8 Valve 1200 Sport with the 4 valve heads was ever sold in North America?? Europe and Oz, maybe others, we only got the 2 valve heads.

    There is a t-shirt out there, with a bear chasing a stick-figure human. The caption is "Canadian Fast Food". I guess your crocs fit into that category?? Had a bear raid my camp back then. I grabbed my food and escaped to a small island through waist deep water. He punctured my Therma Rest and...

    It's a beaut mate ;) . Probably 80% wilderness. The highest concentration of cougars in North America. Wolfs, black bears, and in the last few years Grizzly bears. This summer, for the first time a mother griz with 2 cubs was spotted on the north island. Home to Canada's most endangered mammal...

    1200 Sport 2V Oil Pressure gauge

    An oil pressure gauge is sure to drive you crazy.....is it the just the gauge, or is my engine wearing out, or am I using too light oil, or maybe it is the heat. You are also introducing another point of possible failure if you use a mechanical gauge with an oil line from a pressurized gallery...

    Equivalent oil sensor for 1200 sport 2006 2V

    I managed to mount the sender w/adaptor on my Breva 11. It was a very tight fit, but possible, bending the spade away from the alternator bolt/nut. When the new M12 sender came available, I ordered 2. They are waiting for the failure of said combo, plus a spare for the future. Pretty easy...
