It's in Italy, and this is what they say you can get: http://www.house-tuning.de/en/pagina/editor/whereare/#table But if there is only one item that should make you want to go there, it is Coffee; only in Italy do they understand what a good coffee should be!

Lowryter might be playing you The Greatful Dead but his rap game is dubious at best! But I like where you are going with this Full Service model!

If you’re truly offering , I’ll take 15 tins, we could have a Houston Sardine Spine raid! I’ll stop and get a few fresh baguettes, some butter and rope in a few other local Guzzi riders…could do a ride and hand off the loot…. Let me know when you require payment…thanks! Merci en avance!

Hi from Napier New Zealand. I have number 114

None...I have the Roper plate installed, no issues at all.

Totally forgotten to ask: Does the installation of the Roper Plate interfere with the dipstick/thermometer? Any clearance issues for those that have both installed on the same V11? Just got my Roper Plate today. Shout-out to Pressure Angle for the fair price and fast shipping. Thank you!

Hopefully, she will reply tomorrow....

Do want the three graphic designs, or exclusively the one with the Moto Guzzi?https://www.laquiberonnaise.fr/sardines-millesimees/235-sardines-a-l-huile-d-olive-sans-arete-millesimees.html I think that when you order the 3 lot, you get the 3 different designs. Which can work to our advantage. We can keep the Guzzi looking ones and eat the others.

Or it is a C2V(1924) or 2VT (1931) https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moto_Guzzi_C2V_Toer-serie https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moto_Guzzi_C2V_Toer-serie#/media/Bestand:Moto_Guzzi_2VT_500_cc_1931.jpg 2VT

It's laughably easy docc, even I can do it. When you think about the limitations of the std map your respect for them might wain. The std map has to cover all countries and condition, all the various emission regs for those countries, the different varieties of fuel and fuel quality and then in addition to that the FW factor. It's always one massive compromise. In the car world it's way more advanced than what we have on the old V11. My car you buy an access port for $600 and it comes with a 93/98 octane map so you pick up 15HP straight away. Then most tuners offer a deal for a few hundred dollars where they send you a base tune for your car and any mods you may or may not have and maybe 3 revisions. You hook up your access port which some people run on the dash all the time as it gives direct engine info in real time and go out and do 2 or 3 hard 3rd gear pulls on a quiet piece of road and log the parameters. Download the info and email it to your tuner and he'll look at the data and tailor the tune a little to your particular car and email it back to you. Load the new tune and repeat if you want even more refinement. 21st century custom tuning. Ciao

Right? I can't fault them for marketing a service. Yet, it is hard to fathom that any "full service house" offering mapping for such a numerous array of vehicles could approach the kind of results that a dedicated enthusiast, like Meinolf, Beetle, or Will Creedon, can accomplish and share for such specific and rather rare models. I'm going to do another "Decent Tune-up" after the 200.000 km mark, then entertain the map change. I've been a poster child for the factory map, yet that makes mySport a perfect candidate for a map change (once all the other parameters are renewed.) If the outcome is stunning and earth-shaking, I'm opening a little lounge with coffees and GP Racing on the monitors. @p6x will supply the French sardines, and @LowRyter , the backbeat. Lots of lively conversation in The SpineRaider Lounge. We map while you rap.

My guess is if you were to look at one of these maps it would be your typical 'Throw 20% more fuel at it across the map and advance the spark by a degree above 4,000' type items. See it the whole time, it's based on the ridiculous and completely wrong theory that modern engines are 'Mapped lean to get through emissions.'. It makes my brain hurt.

Heh, it is the SpineRaid Dream Garage, of course. Seems that "House-Tuning", in Italy, has some comfortable sofas, TV, Wi-Fi and strong coffee in their waiting lounge. I might think this very attractive for the ALFA 4C or BMW M5 owner wanting their ride to have a "spa day." Otherwise, that money is about two hours of shop time in these parts. Even if you don't want to load a known map to your V11 yourself, that is priced an hour too much, IMO. Hence, my tongue-in-cheek list of what should be expected in their "full service lounge."

A "full service" lounge, I hope. With open bar, hors d'oeuvres, lobster bisque, live music, a massage, dancing, followed by tiramisu and champagne . . . maybe an espresso and a good cigar. I stopped short of saying, "What? No kiss?"

A recurring theme: The Last Chance Texaco . . .

@Kostarika posted this pic in his Gallery, but a lot of members don't pay attention or comment there. This stunning image deserves front page news, IMO . . .

Here is picture.I fitted California panniers to her

It's been ages ago since i sold my v11 Sport, but after some HD, a Norge and a Cali i finally got a V11 Lemans 03 and hope to put on a lot of km's .
