A detailed walk around of my favorite motorcycle from 2023. While the V100 Mandello Aviazione Navale doesn't have the adaptive suspension of the V100 Mandello S, it has this amazing paint scheme and the gold wheels. Which I love. Thanks so much for watching. Please like and subscribe.

Thank you for the nice video full of useful hints - the one with Drybag is really good. I consider to buy Shad 23 for my Honda Rebel 500 and it is great to see how many things is possible to pack into the cases 🙂
Thank you for taking the time to write a comment. I really appreciate it.
When you use TH-cam or Netflix etc.. is the audio and video lagged/ delayed with audio sync? Other devices i have used it is out of sync so makes parking trying to watch a video rather frustrating and pretty much pointless.
The audio is perfectly aligned with the video on this device. I have only experienced misaligned audio with other wireless devices. Thanks for your comment.
Hey man! I’m back! Another mod I’m looking into now. Heard a lot of mixed things about the DV spacer. Heard it’s not good for the turbo and can void warranty. How long have you had it on? Any issues?
Thanks for your comment. No issues so far. And no loss of boost. But it sounds awesome. I’ve had it on for approximately 9 months.
@@UrAvgRider sweet! I’m a big overthinker and I’ve been doing a ton of research on this. I heard some people say the EA888 gen 1-3 don’t like atmospheric venting and don’t run good with it. I’ve also heard people say oil can leak out of the spacer. Not much but still a little. Have you experienced any oil leaks? Any problems what so ever? I’m very skeptical but I’m excited to install. A lot of people say this could cause issues down the line.
@jonheuer4945 Before putting them on (we installed them on the MK6 GTI and the MK7 GLI), I talked to my trusted mechanic and asked his opinion. He said they’re fine. A little oil may come out, but that’s normal.
@@UrAvgRider have you ever experienced it? With the oil? Any kind of residue around the area?
@@UrAvgRider ok. Have you personally experienced any oil residue?
conviene cambiar del sena sf2 al sena sf4, actualmente tengo el sena sf2 y el 50S y en calidad de audio me gusta mas el SF2.
Thanks for your comment. I also have the Sena Icon RAU (which is the same as the SFR). I just purchased the HD speakers and swapped them. I got much better audio and volume. I do not know if the same base will work for both the SF2 & SF4, but the units are easy enough to change out if you had too. I hope that helps. Thanks again.
Stopped into the International Motorsports dealership recently and asked if they would look at my chain. As l found it jolting at times. A Royal Enfield Meteor 350cc. They weren't that busy but said l would have to make a appointment. Went up the road to Holeshot Motorsports. A Honda dealership. They took me in right away and solved the issue, no charge! Cheers.
Thanks for your comment. I’m glad it worked out for you.
Do you need an Android phone? Or can you use an Iphone as well?
I’m only using an iPhone. It works with both. Thanks for your comment.
Is it legal if the parking light color is blue?
I do not believe so. But it’s best to check with your local municipality. This can typically be found online.
Hello.... I dont find them out....could you please help me? Thanks
Thanks so much for your comment. Unfortunately since I’ve made this video, Triumph Twin Power has stopped selling exhaust. My recommendation would be to check out British Customs. It will be very similar. I hope that helps.
@@UrAvgRider I found them looking at some FB forum
@@MeneghelloPaolelliAsExcellent. Thanks for the update.
Gran video señor
Thank you
hi,do you think each one will fit a motorcycle jacket? It's to know if I could keep it there thanks!!
Thanks so much for your comment. As there are too many variables, size, thickness, armor, etc., the best way I can think of to answer your question is this. If your motorcycle jacket will fit in a standard backpack, it will fit in the side cases. Thanks again.
How did you get the controls for the booster on your infotainment screen?
Thanks so much for your comment. Check out this video. th-cam.com/video/T-fKEp444Sg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=e2Rw2VwgaIJlnLgu
But does it actually make it faster ?
I will be answering this exact question in my next video. I haven’t done all the testing yet with quantifiable metrics, but my butt dyno tells me it’s faster. Thanks so much for your comment.
@@UrAvgRider subscribed to find out
@Impulseartworks Thanks so much.
@impulseartworks Hopefully I’ll have the video done this weekend and posted. I changed the focus of the video and I’ll give you credit for the idea. Thanks again.
I put mine on last week, same thing as you corner started lifiting. No one in my town sold a export like glue so I just bought some name brand 3m tape and reapplied it, hope that holds it
My fingers are crossed for you too. Thanks for your comment.
Helpful 👍
Thanks so much. I appreciate your comment.
Can you use the original turning signals + the handlebars or its illegal?
Thanks so much for commenting. I am quite certain there are no laws that say you can’t use multiple turn signals. The only thing I can think of is that depending on where you place the resistor, the non-LED lights may blink very slow. Not in unison.
Spark plugs are one of the biggist gimmick merchandise in the aftermarket automotive arena. Just buy good ol copper electrode plugs and you'll likely be happy with them for ~30k miles. Copper is second most conductive metal of the elemental metal. More conductive than iridium, ruthenium, and platinum. Copper does wear out at a quicker pace but they offer the best fuel economy for 30k miles and they are less than half the price of iridium. Replace them and your good to go. I want to check for vacum leaks that often anyway so might as well replace the plugs while you are doing this. I run Copper and have never popped a code because of them. Cheers
Thanks for your comment. I do appreciate you taking your time to do so. I won’t pretend to be an expert on the topic. But when APR recommended a spark plug to use with the tune/modified engine, that’s what I decided to do. Thanks again.
Thank you for covering this topic. It is shameful that Amazon doesn't do something to stop the counterfeit parts sales. I have been a victim of these types of rip-offs and it has caused me to start buying from local spot. I know I drifted way off topic and I shouldn't have. I appreciate you raising awareness on these scams!
@@Jeff_SeelyNo worries at all. I do appreciate this community and everyone’s feedback. Thanks again for commenting.
Well explained thank you! Is it alright to do it on the paddock stand or the bike needs to be on side stand?
I believe everything I’ve ever seen said to adjust the chain on the side stand. But only because the weight of the bike should be on the chain. That should also be the case while on the paddock stand. Just as long as the bobbins are not part of the axle blocks. Thanks for your comment.
Thanks for this great video your a life saver 🙏🏾
I love comments like this. Thank you so much for taking your time to comment. Much appreciated.
you can fit a 2 liter fuel friend in the OS bottle pack - less bother ;)
That’s great!! I really appreciate that info.
How bout 02 sensors ??????????
Thanks for your comment. I believe it’s been determined that Amazon will always be “buyer beware”. Check out reviews and seller information as it will be the best to make an informed decision.
Could you tell me if this will fit the NON gli jetta, i assume its the same underneath the factory lip
Yes. Fits the standard Jetta. All without the hassle of having to remove the silly factory lip. 👍 Thanks for your comment.
@@UrAvgRider is there any other exterior parts for the 2024 Jetta. This is all I can find
@MangoTango7 I’ve seen more exterior parts for the standard Jetta than for the GLI (MK7 era).
Is the ARH standard on the 21-24 special?
Yes. Standard on the Special. Thanks so much for your comment.
@UrAvgRider Are you sure the adaptive ride height is standard. How about the 2024? The reason I ask is I placed the order for a special and it's in transit from Holland and I read that it's an extra on the special. Thanks
It’s standard on the North American model. They call it “Adaptive Suspension”. I can’t say I checked other locations around the world.
@@UrAvgRider I understand the adaptive suspension is standard all over the world on the special. I am wondering about the adaptive ride height where the bike lowers down at a stop light. Thanks
@billyflanagan9657 That’s exactly what it is on this bike. “ADAPTIVE SUSPENSION Adaptive Ride Height allows you to lower the seat height when stopped, and it also maintains a constant, optimum suspension sag by continuously adjusting preload.” (Taken from the NA site)
Thanks for the video, man. Really appreciate it.
Thanks so much for your comment.
180 degree helmets are the tits my man. Ls2 advant x carbon $499 ✅
Thanks for your comment.
Thanks for the video, I just got in my spoiler and decided to go straight into the amazing goop route. I let it set for 72 hours and it’s on there for sure. Definitely not coming off. To get the stock spoiler off I found it the easiest to use a heat gun, wedge, fishing braid (the braid rarely snapped) and some goo gone. After taking the stock off I was left with a mess like you had. I used a heat gun and a hard plastic cast iron scrapper and it came off very easy. Within 2 hours I took the old one off and Installed the new one. These videos helped a lot and hopefully for the future my tips can help others.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience and thanks for your comment. I have pinned your comment so it should be at the top for others to see.
I threw this shit spoiler in the garbage after 2 months of dealing with fitment issues and ECS and their lifetime warranty scam that is a complete joke. The edges of the spoiler would lift off the trunk continuously no matter how much 3m tape was re applied. Bad design shit quality. I will never use ECS again.
That's fair. You're allowed your opinion. Did you consider using the Auto Goop? Mine is still holding strong. I don't trust much to 3M. Especially on the exterior. Thanks for your comment.
@@UrAvgRider I will try the goop but this spoiler is complete garbage. Thank you for your reply
Does this affect gas mileage??? Thanks what the difference between a spoiler and a wing?
Thanks for your comment. There is no perceivable difference in gas mileage, down force, weight, or speed. Its primary purpose is looks. I imagine the difference between a wing and a spoiler will depend on who you’re talking to. I suspect most people use them interchangeably. But I’m sure Google will give you a better answer. Thanks again.
Ok where you located??? Can you do my GLI!!! California lol 💴
My apologies. I must have missed your comment. I don’t think it’s feasible that I come do this for you. I’m sure a local body shop could easily handle it though. Thanks for your comment.
Thank you! 👍
My pleasure. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
Is that boost gauge screen specific to your particular year of GLI. If so what year is your MK7 GLI? Mine looks different and dispays 3 guages in white horizontally. Thanks and great vid!
Good eye. Thanks so much for your comment. Check out this video. It explains what I have here. (In case the link doesn’t work, it’s my “Android Auto AI Box” video. th-cam.com/video/T-fKEp444Sg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=trVZgRr4bAGLTdRj
I emailed Icon twice. This is the WORST, absolute hall of fame WORST design for a shield. I have broken 2 shields. I hate this helmet so much.
Hmmm… it’s very similar to Bell helmets I’ve owned as well. What caused you the grief? Thanks for your comment.
@@UrAvgRider its literally impossible to unclip by hand. like your video. and using a tool you either scratch it, or it explodes into a million pieces.
@@LOLewie Just broke my clear shield trying to take it off super carefully, what a POS.
@andresperez383 Hmmm… I wonder if the shields are becoming more brittle with age, UV exposure, or something like that? Thanks for your comment.
You said you would post a one year update. It has been a year and I just picked up a 2024 manual GLI, so an update would be relevant to my interests.
I will get to work on this. But I can tell you that it’s been great and I have no regrets. Thanks so much for your comment.
I put a set of autolite iridium platinum plugs from Amazon. So looks like im getting them out of my engine asap
Thanks so much for your comment. I’m not saying all spark plugs purchased on Amazon are wrong. But it’s worth having a closer inspection at them to ensure they are correct. I hope yours were correct.
@@UrAvgRider I went to my local advance auto parts and picked up a set of ngk iridium plugs and changed them out before my engine even cooled off completely! Rather be safe than sorry!
@Beek88 True. A good motto. Thanks for the update.
How’s it holding after the goop ?
Holding great! I’m also impressed on how good the spoiler still looks. I thought it would look scratched up by now. But it still looks new. Thanks for your comment.
So is there a trick to get the visor to pop back in.. took visor off then replaced the visor.. everything went fine but now the little visor buttons won’t pop back up into the hole
I believe the only trick is to have all the notches line up and then twisting locks it in place. Best of luck. Thanks for your comment.
I was browsing Amazon for spark plugs today, and I could see so many counterfeit products. The same goes for Samsung phone chargers. There are so many that look like official products, but are cheap Chinese knockoffs that could be fire hazards. Those poor quality counterfeit spark plugs you received could cause catastrophic engine damage. I'm glad you saw the problem and returned them to Amazon.
Thanks so much for your comment.
That bike is hot. However it hurts my back just looking at it.
It actually sits quite upright. Definitely a sport tourer. But a tourer nonetheless. Thanks for your comment.
Thanks for making the video. It would have been much better to get close up shots of the work being done instead of shooting from 6 feet away. I really couldn't see anything.
Thanks for your comment. When doing it all myself it’s hard to know exactly how it will turn out. And I can’t get the dynamic shots like those with a team. Thanks for your feedback though.
"Ride Rider" MotoStream in 1hr, if you get this message in time. I am watching you video now. I'm surprized you do not comment on mine 😞
Nice looking ride.
Thanks for the video! Just Installed the same spoiler on my gli..looks Awesome! I put some "goop" inside the spoiler to prevent the 2 pieces from ever coming apart before the install
I don't understand what's all the secrecy around the brand name of the product. I can't find it anywhere, even in your response to a viewer's question about it. What's up with that ?! PLEASE - what is the brand name of this wheel chock?
No secrecy. This one happens to be from a surplus store. Likely no brand name. But I suspect that most wheel chocks are going to be about the same. Thanks for your comment. Let me know if I can answer any more questions.
Hi handsome I hot burned too from ebay
Great video thank you will it connect to my SLR2 Sena thanks
Nice video. I had never heard of this product before. Good job.
Getting ready to install this. Due you still recommend the automotive amazing goop?
I absolutely recommend the Goop. As long as you want it to be permanent. Thanks so much for your comment.
I was just considering getting the SH23s for an upcoming trip on my Royal Enfield Super Meteor. I actually wanted to get inner bags for the panniers and was trying to figure out which ones. So it was actually really usefil to see your 20L Osprey as most drybags I see out there are cylinder shaped, but that one is rectangular which seems it would make it pretty ideal for the panniers. It also seems like the material is not really thick which, at least for this use, seems like a good thing. Very informative video. Thank you for making it!
