Title: Questions
Post by: keuka4884 on July 13, 2022, 11:16:29 AM
1. Arctic Fox, where did you get that Moto Guzzi bottle holder? very cool. Lots of generics out there but I cannot find a Guzzi labeled one.

2. For Moto and anyone else who has upgraded a T3 dash to the one with turn signal indicators. The "standard light sockets will not fit the upgraded dash. Too big. Am I missing something here? If smaller ones are required, where did you get them? As others have noted, it is about impossible to see the neutral light on the original dash!

I think the bulb holders are the same as Convert ones. If so, I may have some to spare.

Not a T3 dash, but similar... On my V50 III, I replaced all of the warning light bulbs with LEDs. Much brighter and I can actually see them in direct sunlight! Use an LED the same color as the lens.

If you replace the charge warning bulb and still have the original Bosch charging system, you'll need to add a resistor. Greg Bender offers a ready made "bootstrap harness" for this purpose.

Charlie, thanks for that info. I would need 5 if you have them. I will not be using the bottom brake reservoir light. I do have the LED's you recommended.

Two wheel addict - I do not see any bottle holder on the WG site. What am I doing wrong?

Oops. I forgot the turn signal indicators. Make that 7 Charlie if you have them.
