Know some of you. Just trying a different campfire. Haven't owned a GRiSO yet, but ride the ones I work on, now part time.
Hope you 8V guys get your rollers done, there are no good flats. I've been doing 1 per month.
Hope to get more riding in, just that now I need to wrench on my own junk.
Ride Safe, Steve

Welcome, Steve!
Still hoping to get with you for lunch or something on one of our monthly visits to Atlanta.
Looking forward to your contributions here. Lord knows I can use all the supervision I can get.

Hi Steve. Only one a month? You're lucky ! I have them backed up like a blocked sewer.
They're a good crew here as long as you accept there are lots of Irish and Antipodeans which means we are coarse and tend to drift off topic now and again.....

Welcome Steve. You are right - A better bike is near impossible to find. The GRiSO is tops.

Welcome to the ghetto. Just had mine rollerized and shaft serviced. There was no lube from factory! What have you seen on this issue?

Factory sends every thing out dry, been seeing this since I started, why would they change now?
Just got done re-torquen V700 heads, next is the exercising it. Too late now, no mufflers, only 36" fishtails. Tomorrow they'll be thunder in them hills up yonder.

Hey Steve,
I just bought a used Tenni GRiSO and your name is in the service book! I think the guy that owned it was named Gary but I'm not sure.
Anyway it's rollered now so all should be good.
Welcome.

Thanks George, Watch out GRiSO's are addicting, don't forget to exercise the EV.

GuzziSteve,
You're right, you never know who you'll run into, but that's why I seek out all motorcycle shops, especially Guzzi dealers whenever I travel. Pretty cool that we ran into each other today, always nice to meet fellow guzzistis along the way. Come visit us on the west coast some time now that you're retired.

GuzziSteve,
Sorry your face is in shadow, but I thought folks might like to see you standing in front of Marietta Sportscar and Cycle. Ride on!

Welcome Steve!
I'm new here myself, and just received my roller"C" kit today
On a riding addiction scale of 1 to 10 I'd say my GRiSO 8V is about a 23.5
