Shopping for a Vintage...

[harrytief]

Hi Geoff
Some things I've done:
EV tubeless wheels
Michelin Pilot Activ tires
Upgraded brake discs and calipers
Matris adjustable fork cartrides
Gazi Hyper X adjustable rear shocks
NOS Pacifico Aero (H&H prototype) front fairing with tall screen
Custom made frame mount brackets for fairing
Harpers outsider
Stone handlebars
Extra calvin seat to be sent to Sargent
Very recent Odessey battery
Guzzi Tech exhaust crossover
Guzzi factory leather saddlebag liners
Givi rear top box with adaptor plate
Endless fiddling and fetteling and some stuff I forgot

Oh yes
Replaced the fuel line with OEM upgraded flex plastic line (why didn't the factory do that in the first place!!!)
Replaced fog light bulbs with lower wattage bulbs to save battery at low (city) rpm.

Damn!  Heavily breathed on is right.

All the 'right' upgrades.  Kinda like how they should come from the factory.

I'm just guessing here, but I'll bet you had the fueling addressed when you installed the GT crossover?

Got pics?  I'll pm my email if it's easier for you?

Location, location, location?

You've got me breathing heavy.

Hi, Geof.

Harry is right in Toronto.  I've seen his CalVin (before some of these mods) and it was a beauty!

Cheers,
Shaun

That sounds PERFECT...

I have a white '09 CalVin located in SW Florida for sale due to purchase of a 1400. PM me.

Hi Geoff
The throttle bodies were synched by George when I swapped in the Guzzitech cross over. The bike ran so well that I stopped looking for an upgraded map. I've heard good things about about Todd's reflash and it has piqued my interest. As of now, I'll likely ride the calvin as it is if it stays in the garage.
Shaun
I've shown your kind words to the bike and she purred her appreciation. She really is a sweetheart!

It's bloody cold here in Toronto and when I do manage some garage time it is to install some goodies on the cx100 faux griso project. The calvin is well swaddled but I'll try to do some pics in the next day or two and post. Much of what I've done has not changed her OEM appearance other that the fairing, wheels and rear box. Paint is black. I will remark that I am surprised how well the pacifico fairing suits the look of the calvin. So much better to my eye than the police style windshield. Should have been a proper factory option especially considering how much more effective it is.

Hi Harry

It has been bitter cold here too (-32C this AM).

Take your time with the pix - I'm in no rush.

Still it is something that has to be done. My friend owns one and we have been talking about addressing the fueling for two years now, but haven't actually got off our butts and done anything about it  :+=copcar.  I'm thinking this spring would be a good time to ride down to Redline in Yorktown, VA and let them do their remap and tune.

Beetle has a couple great maps for the Calvin.
