ozzraptor wrote:55 years agoHi Miz, i have a complete parts list if you want it but not sure how to link it and it does not show prices ? they dont list all their parts on ebay so best to send them a email. They have over 2,000 parts for mv agusta and cagiva they are clearing out The parts i purchased for the damper were not on ebay , but they were about quarter of the price of OEM ! ans oem postage is a complete steal Emma at pfg has been extremely helpful in locating these parts for me ,actually they had them in stock but were the last ones. If you need anything just send her an email .

I'll leave it, this is like pulling teeth

Enjoyed a nice cuppa beside her.

I'd seen a special offer over chrimbo at my local photo printing place, and got a mug made up for about AU$10 (less than six quid), and as I hadn't ever seen a nice Cagiva mug I thought I'd print my own, very nice she is too!

I think i like the mug better than the jpeg

Finished fitting the gipro , wired to ignition so its off when bike is not in use. Otherwise can flatten battery if bike is not being used. Great little piece , worked straight off, not sure what the difference is but you can select 4,5,6 gear mapping for the atre part. Or off if you dont want the tre but just the gipro.

definitely runs smoother in lower rpm with tre on!

Neat job you've done there.

I'm trying to train myself to count the gears as I work my way through them, slowly getting better at it, haven't looked for 7th in ages!

I got spoilt on my last bike and since i dont have the safety switch in yet with no neutral light ,at least i have it now on the gipro. I missed not having a gear indicator.

Qzz... nice bit of work
Wardy ... bollox - hope its all sorted soon

well here the weather is

... we dont have a smilie for drowning

and so I havent seen mine for a couple of weeks... I am just hoping that the garage is not flooded, I will put my wellies on over the weekend and investigate! We are lucky in that the water level is only an inch deep in the garden and the house is a foot above that and when (if) it stops raining we are a fair way up the hill so it will drain away quite quickly. We had better have a decent summer after this lot!

mate you will love it and the difference is quite noticeable with the tre on ,i thought the bike wasnt running too well after i fitted it and then i noticed the tre was off, very easy to turn on or adjust gear 4,5,6 maps. Turned gipro on to 5th or 6th gear map ,cant remember which one it was now,took for a run and much smoother

Make sure to wire the red power wire to a switchable source , as a lot of people are finding their batteries are going flat in a few weeks of not riding. The gipro remembers its settings. I ran mine straight to the ignition fuse box. You will need an extra length of wire because the supplied is not long enough. Apart from the v- tech levers, lithium battery this is the next best thing and it looks cool too

Some more bling, they actually work to !

Spyke · Post by **Spyke** » 10 years ago

Oooh, I didn't need to see them!

Yeah very nice indeed, I've been thinking about them since your previous post, especially now that I'm finally getting into the complications of suspension set up (I struggle a bit on bumpy roads probably due to an excess of rebound not appropriate for my weight). But I'm also trying not to spend money so I've been trying to convince myself that from my riding position I can't see the fork caps anyway, and that if I have things to twiddle then it increases the likelihood of strangers twiddling my things on the rare occasions I leave my baby unattended. But I'm not really convincing myself!

I'm still continuing my quest to make clear front lenses for y'all, and hopefully next week I'll offer them at a reasonable price, and celebrate my first sale by splashing out on some twiddly things!

It makes sense to my twisted mind

Anyway today I backed off my fork rebound adjusters (I think!), ready for some bumpy roads tomorrow.

Twiddly things make you feel good.Those twiddly lenses will look pretty cool too. I may be up for some while i am in the mood for twiddling! On closer look at the front rubber thingy , looks like it holds the wiring from the thermostat and i see the coolant overflo pipe as well as somat else ?
