| A big hello to all the ghetto members and a thanks to Steak for the warm welcome, I have my 2011 tenni green GRiSO se that I travelled to England to buy over a year now and love it. Living in Ireland the nearest Guzzi dealer is in Northern Ireland or England, [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]In that year I have never had any problems with the exception of blowing a fuse once when starting and after that I did the wiring mod from battery to starter relay. With the help of the great advice that I have found on this and other sites on the net I do my own servicing, oil, filter, plugs, valve settings and reset the TBS using Guzzidiag also the swing arm bearings grease etc. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I have sold my FJR which I hope to replace with another pillion friendly bike for touring sometime soon and I'm loving the guzzi engine so much I may even considering a Stelvio? Looking forward to hanging around the ghetto, Guzzi Cat, | |

| Another GRiSO in Ireland! There are a group of us Guzzi owners spread around the country and we have organised the odd meet up. Would be great to see you sometime. News about get togethers is usually posted up on the Guzzi Club GB Forum. By the way, sad to say that there are no Guzzi dealers in the island of Ireland any more. The only one up here in the North has given up on Guzzis. Plenty of good mail order specialists for bits though. | |

| Thanks for all the good vibes guys,
Slainte!!! right back to all, Speirmoor, when I bought the bike it had just 3.5K miles and I saw from the receipts that the previous owner had the wheel rims painted green with a white stripe stuck around the rim and the hugger painted what seems to be the
exact tenni paint that the factory uses and also matching white stripes like the tank. I thought that it finished the look nicely, Hope your enjoying the BIg Apple.
Hi Steve, I hope you enjoy your GRiSO as much as I do, I thought that GS motorcycles were guzzi dealers! I was last up your neck of the woods at the Ulster GP and was up the Antrim coast road earlier in the summer and didn't get wet for a change, brilliant road!! Be glad to meet up some time.

The hugger looks to be the Skidmarx unit. Mine is for sale, hint, hint! Pete | |
