Here’s my Rosso Corsa that’s hibernating in a bike cocoon over winter, will emerge Spring 2022

The database that I’ve found only goes back 20 years to 2001. From 2001 to 2007 there were 150 V11 Sports registered, and 81 V11 Le Mans, Tenni’s RC’s, NC’s, Cafe Sports etc registered, so from 2001 ~ 07 a total of 231 registrations. From another database I found there were 90 red frame Sports from 1999 & 2000 registered when new, so that makes a total of 321 new registrations from 1999 - 2007. So 254 bikes surviving out of a a total of 321 sales seems a reasonable survival rate. It demonstrates that they never sold in serious numbers when new, hence seeing any V11 these days is a rarity….. Contrast that with the 524 registrations of V85’s in the UK Since 2019…. Or the 17641 BMW R1200 GS’s that have been registered in the UK There’s hours of entertainment looking at these statistics, but I only have the UK data and not worldwide. I would have thought Guzzi sold far more V11’s in the US ?

The Dealer network in the US was inept. When I bought my greenie, the local dealer was just a tiny little place on a side street strip mall. They wanted it sold so badly I paid I think at the time $7,000 brand new and sold it for the same price +/- couple years later. Unless it’s been wrecked and dismantled, I see plenty of them still for sale today. They are time tested, reliable and fun bikes that you won’t see a dozen of at your local Sunday morning coffee shop.

12/9/2021 at 2:48 AM, Scud said The consensus around the rumor-mill seems to be about 200 produced globally, and about 50 of those in the US. Not much activity in the Nero Corsa registry on this site. I have never seen another one in person Here in the UK there appear to be a grand total of 5 Rosso Corsas. Can’t even find a listing for Nero Corsas. I think there maybe even fewer As for putting new acquisitions in the garage, SWMBO has no idea how many bikes I have in the garage, and can’t tell the difference between a V11 or a VMAX. She rarely ventures in there anyway, so if I buy another, I may mention it in passing after the event, but I don’t get any stress about it

Lonelec has them in stock should have listened just ordered from them

Seems everybody are happy with the Lonelec.uk edt , page 1 this tread. Sorry don't know any suplier in the US. Cheers Tom.

Back in the 90’s the co I worked for had a mandatory policy of hearing protection. After much grumbling I gradually realized having my ears ring after work wasn’t normal & have been an advocate for hearing protection since then. However this has not prevented the accumulated damage done prior to that point & have a constant hissing in my left ear. For riding I wear plugs & found this co; https://www.earplugstore.com who offer an assortment of earplugs to try, for as they say ears are all different. I did spend the $100+ one time on a pair of custom plugs but found they rubbed against my helmet & amplified the road noise ! Frankly I am horrified how much hearing aids cost. Neither of my bikes have cost that much.

Once upon a lifetime, I was working at a Texaco gas station in Belleville, Michigan, USA about 1985. A car full of people stopped for directions to the church up the street, for an extended family wedding. They were from Cork. They were flat hammered. Nobody cared and they apparently successfully navigated their way around. I've long since lost the contact information, but I did get a standing invitation to stay in Cork. It's on my long list of places to see.

I can search UK registrations with the following versions, but some of these categories show no data V11 Sport V11 Sport Scura V11 Sport Tenni V11 Sport Le Mans V11 Sport Le Mans Rosso Corsa V11 Cafe Sport V11 Le Mans (this only has 4 registered, so I suspect it’s probably another special model such as the Nero Corsa) How many of all these are left in the UK, you may ask? A grand total of 254 V11s of all versions left
