Hey All,

Just two more cents to add to the noise thread........
Remember if you run a fairing, it is going to echo the normal Guzzi valve=
noise back to you. I've always had wixoms on my Guzzis, and it does ampl=
ify the noise. The previous owner of my Ambo had carpeting glued into the=
inside of the fairing to muffle the noise. Being a true Guzzi lover, I t=
ook it all out to savor the noise. When I was a kid in the 70's I glued a=
half inch thick felt pad into the valve covers......musta been one of th=
e Tips from back then.
