    Potentially stupid question

    Had my suspension fettled by an expert, nice chap and sure he did a great job, but I don't like it. So going to set it back to standard. On the rear shock rebound is adjusted by the lower ring and is set 18 clicks from fully closed. Closed is clockwise. Looking down on the shock and winding...

    Another dumb newb question - cooling fans?

    Hello all - Took a ride today; it was about 87F (HOT for mid-September in New England). The coolant temp on the Tuono (2015 1000cc) never got above 215, even stopped in traffic. It's much better in this regard than my FZ1, which had an R1 engine but a smaller radiator than the R1 - it...

    Ohlins fork seal question

    I'm just in the process of replacing my fork seals on my 2001 RSVR and am not sure if they were replaced correctly last tome by the previous owner. When I stripped the forks the parts came out in this order: dust seal - circlip - fork seal - washer. This does not seem right to me as it would...

    new to me V4 1000, a question please.

    I've got a 2014 demo and pick it up when it stops raining. After riding both the new 1100 and the outgoing 1000, I did notice the new model is more comfortable. My first question is , I'm 5'10" and find that the 1000 screen just doesn't give me the protection I would like. Is there any other...

    Dumb-ass question: How to remove rider seat?

    Yeah, I know, I'm a tool but how do I remove the riders seat? Is it just the two pins that are visible when you remove the rear seat?

    HI all. I live in Sweden, my question is should I left my tank full on my Tuono rsv 1000 under the winter period, or empty the tank and store it warm? Best regards Daniel. [emoji12]

    To break or not to break? That is the question.

    I am retiring from 2 wheels, but decided to go out with 4 days on track at Portimao on a 2001 RSV Mille R I purchased for this purpose. The bike was great fun and performed very well. It did get noisy towards the end (but I thought that this was the clutch). I took it into my local garage for a...

    Dog bone Question

    Will be putting my suspension links back on shortly ( Gen 2 T) and thinking of "reversing" the front / engine dog bone bolt so that the nut is on the exhaust side... Any reason not to do this other than heat off the exhaust pipe close to the nut itself ? It would make future bearing...

    Another noob question (clutch related?)

    I noticed that my bike is really tough to roll around (when not running), and it has a tendency to "jump" a little bit if I start it in gear, with the clutch lever fully pulled. In neutral it is fine. I don't remember my old Gixxer doing this. Is this normal or do I maybe need to bleed the...

    Exhaust question

    Hey guys, I'm looking for cans and reading some info. Firstly, Does anyone run a can without the race ecu/remap. if so, does it run too lean? I'm looking at the GPR slash cut, looks good, any specific recommendations? As the bike is brand new, I'm not going to disconnect the exhaust valve or...

    2006 Lower fairing question

    Can't seem to get a 100% answer on if the Gray/black lower fairings on the 2006 models are the same color Metallic Gray with the only difference being the decal. Surprisingly the "Factory" lower is the cheaper of the two and a good friend owns a graphics shop so he can reproduce the decal for...

    Exhaust question

    Evening lads quick question, would a later model exhaust can fit my 2000 model ? Just curious as it would look a lot tidier and I'd have a go and pulling the insides out to give it a bit more sound :) Cheers
