Griso magic trick

Beautiful shot. That was always my favorite photo angle for the Griso.

Yeah, without the stinking graffiti, unless you want to pass it off as "art"

My '08 Norge has the magic button as well....

Have you done startus interruptus, and if not, have you had any dramas ? Me not yet.

Agree, totally.

So everyone here had previous knowledge of the magic button?
Didn't anyone go to the garage and give it a stab for the first time to try it out??
Confess I say!

Not a problem so far...I wasn't aware the '08 Norge was a candidate for SI surgery?

Don't feel too bad Tarz, rumour has it that lots of guys have trouble finding the magic button! (Oh dear, now I've Really done it!)

Ok, I'll bite. Went out to the garage, no "magic starter" on the 12 Norge, just a plain old regular starter button that everyone's used to ......

[twowings]

LOL....keep a sharp lookout for the little man in a boat, me hearties!!!

Give it a few more years, any bike with the start relay fed through the ignition switch is a candidate, The starter solenoid pulls
over 40 amps and as the switch gets older the switch is unable to supply it. If you clean the contacts and add some fresh
Vaseline it will improve things. The yellow wire to the start relay is fed from one of the top 3 fuses which are supplied by the switch
providing a direct feed from the battery is an easy fix.

I added a relay on my Stelvio, although I never had the trouble. I had purchased the startus kit from MPH and discovered I couldn't use it on the '09 Stlevio. (All relays and fuses are up behind the headlight on the right side.) I installed a relay under the side cover and connected the trigger wire through it. I soldered up some ends and plugged everything together, along with a fuse in the power line. The starter button works just the same as it did before I made the modification. It has been that way for a few years now. If I were to decide to change it back, it would only take a matter of minutes.
