brilliant!!!

Same here, went through 2 myself and feared getting another. I had bought a $20. Torque wrench from princess auto 2 years ago and always does the job. I recently however used the slick snap on what a wrench. I'd take it up with their head office. Remember though if you left the tension on when...

I swear, Simon must have an in with the postal system, lightning speed....super blinding speed service, thanks mate.

Bingo!

This may sound weird but left and right turns for me are executed differently. You may want to experiment with the following which has worked for me. On right hand turns (throttle side), i keep my elbow tucked in and touching my leg, this helps alleviate any aggressive inputs to the throttle...

Congratulations, your going to love riding that bike. Get out there in a t shirt , half helmet you'll never look back. If ever you need to get back on a sport bike, then get one and own both, 2 bikes are not uncommon.

" don't celebrate nor support failure in any department, and when it comes to motorcycles, Harley Davidson is a failure, plain and simple. They thrive and survive on support from the ignorant and uneducated." Man are you for real? Wait let me guess your in IT,still living with your "old"...

Was on the Fabi track last week and found it perfectly acceptable, in fact pretty smooth

It seems you can't unless on asphalt, is this so?

Whoa, I've heard of tank suck but my god that's seriously distorted. I remember reading that Ducati have replaced many a tank because of this issue, which model is it, 900ss? I know the thread was referring to their supplier who had issues with other bikes as well, I believe the supplier is a...

By chance does anyone that is going to this track day at Shannonvile have room on their trailer as my car with the hitch was involved in an accident today and won't be ready until after that date. I'm in Oakville, will compensate for space, bike is an sv. Thanks

Well, the throttle tube is what controls your throttle on/off. The cables are attached to it and wrapped with your throttle grip. In many cases, the the throttle tube is so sloppy that you can move it up and down with a 1/8" difference,that's alot. The closer your tube is to your clip on the...

This is something that I had issues with on my 1098. While researching this problem, my fix was to swap out the original throttle tube with a smaller diameter tube with less tolerance and it made all the difference. I had purchased mine at Dan Kyle which is specific for Ducati.

OK great see you at the track Rick, we had lunch at the Ice last year, I was on my Guzzi

I'll be there as well albeit not on my 1098, but a (sacriledge) suzuki sv650 track bike, mama mia Rick, you staying overnight, camping/hotel?

I think your choice in getting a V7 shows you got taste buddy, go for it. It's about as harmless as an sv650 or Monster except it exudes mucho style,. Which one were you thinking the "cafe" or the regular V7? Either one, a Guzzi is a man's bike!

The ramp was also from Harbor freight, it's the 3 panel fold-out which I removed one panel, cost was $100, but you can get the same at Princess Auto except I believe it was $200 plus not sure though. Yes about sunken carriage bolts, I just used a 1" wide drill bit used when installing hardware...

That's great to hear and your right, simply put on your sheets of plywood and then bolt everything up snug, it will get squared off. Here are a couple of pics on my last track day at Mosport with the Ducati club. You'll notice the ramp on the right hand side which stays put vertically when...

Did you figure it out/line-up?
