I just bought a new 2023 and wanted to adjust the foot pedal positions on both sides as I'm tall so my feet hit the pegs at an angle. I get to the clutch pedal and loosen it and figure out that it doesn't adjust at the pedal like Japanese bikes. So I go up the assembly to notice there's a linkage between the pedal and the clutch that requires loosening two 10mm nuts that are rather difficult to reach and get any kind of bite on. What is a 5 minute job on my Japanese bike turned into a half hour of trying to loosen and tighten two 10mm nuts so I could twist the linkage shaft enough to lower the clutch pedal an inch or so. I then moved over to the brake pedal and tried that linkage as well to no avail as the actual brake pedal position cannot be adjusted. I did tighten the brake linkage so it should engage sooner but the actual pedal location is set whether you like it or not.
@@Blair62 not familiar with that yet but I have owned 4 Guzzis and always been able to get to the parts I need to adjust. You may need to research it some more on the guzzi vlogs.
I have owned over 80 motorcycles, 3 MotoGuzzi, This bike handles well on and off road, winds out to 7 grand giving good speed and outstanding torque, it is extremely comfortable for long hours, easy to maintain valves, oil, etc, great tires with the Michelins giving 6 to 8,000 miles, heated grips, cruise control......all one could but won't satisfy as you will want more then more, wise choice!!
@@2helpzone thanks for the reply. 80 bikes wow! I had about 25 , 11 of which I currently own including a guzzi Griso. Love the looks of the v85 and very different from what I have. I might pull the trigger.
Hi Robert. My friend and I are solving a mystery on the Moto Guzzi V85TT. Could you give me an email address? I would describe the matter and maybe you would be willing to advise.@@2helpzone
Hi Roberts, I tried to reduce the 10mm visible thread using your tutorial except the footpeg that was not needed to remove but unfortunately after removing the bolt 13mm : impossible to rotate the shaft, no screwdriver shape (groove) but 1 kind of protruding male rectangular shape made thanks to 2 flat outside of the screw, and above all seems factory glued with strong white sealant :( Thank you btw !
@@2helpzone Thanks Roberts, only option to succeed is to remove the lever axle itself abd wirk off the bike as it seems a strong threadlock has been applied...
@@sylvainarnaud4655 good luck, wonder who applied thread lock, is this a preowned, you may have reached service limit on the adjuster indicating need for a new cable. still will need to adjust nut with shaft to original spec and turn it counter clockwise.
