Great review. You're pleasant to listen to. Please we need more of the Cagiva on TH-cam. Have you had leaking tanks on the bike? If yes, how did you fix it. That seems to be a problem on some od the bikes around here.Thanks.
You can also take many parts of the Navigator as spare parts cause other then the engine, they are the same. But espacially Panels are gotten insanely expensive on ebay...and seats...
Hi, they are a great bike aren’t they?! I’m interested in how you modified your stock mufflers, did it require advanced metalworking skills? Thanks, a little more burble would be good but I like how the stock mufflers look
The conversion will require metal skills; cutting, welding & riveting. After I did it, I didn't notice a big difference in volume, just a little more of the Ducati burble.
Good Mods. I’m also in process of installing front and rear camera system on my Gran Canyon. Can you pls share where did you draw the power from? was looking for a switch power wire around the battery, and trying to do this without splicing too many wires. Appreciate any guidance.
To power the grips, I modified the stock fuse box and used one of the "spare" fuse holders. I don't recall what switched hot I used but it was probably one of the circuits at the fuse box.
Missing my Elefant 900 that got wrecked by a truck. A GC900 has come up for sale locally. The parts issue makes me think 3x as far as getting another Cagiva. Couldn't repair the Elefant 😭
The parts issue really isn't that bad if you're willing to dig in a little bit. There are some significant components like the tank, fairing and such but you can find alternates for just about everything. Also, there seems to be a lot more support for the bikes from European manufacturers.
@@stevegsgarage I've commissioned replica parts for the Elefant in the past. Such as the airbox to intake runner rubber needing to be recreated. Things like swingarms are not available any longer. Others on the Elefant Adv Bike lost have had swingarm bushings manufactured since you can't get them. I'm not unfamiliar with keeping rare Italian bikes going... Which is why I hesitate 😬
nice to see a new Cgc movie ,wat a nice bike to have and ride .
Thanks for the great run down on the rig . I’m happy you got it back !

I heard if u got the saddle bags and go over 85 it may kill u since it causes speed wobbles

@ thanks!
Great bike Mine has more than 90.000 kilometers and runs perfect. What kind of handlebar is that? I can see is not the original.
They're a high rise ATV bar. I'm tall so I need something tall when I stand to ride.
Show us how to service it please
