Re: What`s your other bike ?

So, you like Guzzi`s ? I`ve had v50 Monza, 850 Le mans, Daytona RS 1000, V10 Centauro, 650 NTX, 1000 Quota. If I ever wanted a cruiser, I wouldnt mind the old automatic one. You could say that. :D I've also had a V50 III, 1000 Le Mans, Centauro, 1000SP, G5, 850-Ts, V700 and more I'm likely forgetti...

Re: H4 bulbs can I swap for an LED bulb

Good point Dom, I found similar with the LED rear I tried. It was a while ago though and I think there is something about the colour of the LEDs too. Something like it's better to use white LEDs with a traditional red lens? Or vice versa..I haven't worried about the rear lamp since then, it's only ...

Re: H4 bulbs can I swap for an LED bulb

I'm running a similar LED bulb in several of my bikes, mostly to keep the load down on old charging systems, but also to make myself more visible during the day. I rarely ride at night though, so no feedback on whether they "blind" oncoming traffic.

Re: Strada single disc alternative master cylinders

I installed a new-old-stock 11 mm Grimeca master cylinder meant for an MZ 250 on my '77 Strada. With the stainless braided lines, it gives great feel and power.

Re: Throttle cable lengths

I've never received a Venhill cable that was correct! The throttle cables I bought two years ago for my Strada had an inner wire 10 mm too short. And yes, Verlicchi throttle, adjusters all the way in. I had Barnett Cable in California duplicate my original throttle cables and they fit perfectly. Pre...
