Also got the order in from Stein Dinse for the Becker Technik stand. This seems like the best way for a rear tire change.

Shop manual and parts catalogs are on their way! Still looking for user manaul and original key blanks.

I'm going to get an "OJT" training session from my son at Xmas so that I can post photos the proper way and avoid further churn for docc and other MAC/Apple users. (Forgive my un-adaptability, I'm from the "old" generation and still file paperwork in a steel file cabinet!)

They are viewable by opening the link, but to get the image to display in your post takes a "Copy&Paste" of some sort. When the image opens on another site (like Google Photos), clicking "Copy" will paste the image into your post, but add it to your (limited allowable amount of "Attachments"). To see what you have already added to your attachments, click on your username and select "Attachments." If you click on the image in Google Photos, it reopens in a new widow. "Right click" that image to drop down a new menu and select "Copy Image Link" (not just "Copy Link"). Pasting Copy Image Link "hot links" the display to the host site. Some sites block this and only a link (no image) will display. This is what @Tom in Virginia's image displays using Copy Image Link:

That's a beauty.............. these are wonderful and soulful machines. Ciao

The OEM hose ain't suitable for anything , but it has the correct angles ! It is rubber (I think) only w/no cloth woven into it . This stuff deteriorates the moment it is removed from the plastic bag it comes in . i thught mine was in PERFECT shape until I went to look at how to R&R it to give advice to a member on this site . Yuck , it was junk . Harper's : mmmmm. good luck . MG cycle : I use them since Joe Eish is NLA .

2001 Moto Guzzi Rosso Mandello V11 Sport #49. 16k miles. Has Mistral crossover and Exan (Italian) carbon exhaust with removable baffle that sounds amazing. Power commander. Also has a Penske rear shock. Otherwise it is well maintained and original. Starts and runs great and has good Michelin Pilot Power 4 tires. Has a few small paint marks in tank from normal use. Only selling as I have wrist issues and can no longer sit on it for as long as I would like. I have original literature, letter of authenticity, parts manual, and workshop manual for the bike. Video of it running. https://youtu.be/2FSHFHEjas4 Bike is located in Mazomanie, WI. More than happy to work with shippers if needed. I have shipped and received bikes in the past. $6200 obo

I use it for the front tire and fork work too. It holds the bike upright from the rear and while using ratchet straps from handlebars to rafters, I use a padded floor or scissors jack under the front of the sump. It seems sketchy at first but with tight "splayed" straps I feel safe with it. Don't know what a new Becker Technik comes with but I use an 18" - half inch drive breaker bar in the jack arm. From the side stand I can hold the handlebars with both hands and operate the jack with my foot. It's an awkward dance till you sort it out. If you chock the front tire first there's no balance problems at all.

That's a notable name you don't hear mentioned often (Joe Eish). A legend in MG motorcycle parts for sure. Have heard much of that inventory is still just sitting there.

I gave up trying to link to Google Photos. Seems only half can see them from my files, so I upload them to imgbb.com and link from there.

[ Haha, well: successful "strike my last sentence" edit! I'm giving myself a raise! ]

Srike my last sentance from the record. As I previously noted, the 10th digit is a 1, and we all agree on the year. I might find out Monday at DMV why the title was printed 2004. They know what the 10th digit means... one would think... and they issued the title.

Took a pic of a spare I have..... Paul B

Note on my report that they show my injectors as IW 091. I called and they said they read that number from the injector body; it could be a typo but he's asked that I send a picture to verify when they arrive, for clarification. The flow numbers on the report align with the IW-031 published figures and I can't find reference to any IW-091. Stay tuned for academic, incidental drama.

Any updates... sounds amazing

Be aware that if the actual hose fitting that is broken, (The usual way is the little hooky-toothy bits on the *Ring* break off) you can pick apart the broken parts and new parts on the hose fitting and replace the broken bits, including the all important o-ring, with the new parts without disturbing the stupid shrink-fitted hose, (If indeed your bike has the shrink-fitted hose? All the CARC bikes do.). We do this all the time when frustrated owners have bust their fittings.

I'm not a cheese expert,I don't understand the science that well,so for sure I couldn't explain it,but I think that cheese curds are formed on the surface of some type of cheese process and scooped up floating on the top of the whey? They're curly rubbery little pieces of salty cheese about the size of a frito chip. A regular Poutine is just good french fries,covered in a hot brown gravy with a bunch of fresh cheese curds sprinkled on top. What makes a great Poutine for me,is that halfway point where the curds are melting into the hot gravy,but still have a bit of firmness to bite into. This Pannhass or Scrapple you guys are talking about,sounds similar to what we'd call fried hash up here. Whatever leftover meat or veggies happened to be around,tossed into a hot oiled cast iron pan with garlic & onions for a base and usually buffed out with potatoes.

Workshop Manual: https://www.thisoldtractor.com/mg_manuals/workshop_manual_v11_en.pdf Parts catalog: https://www.parts-motoguzzi.com/moto-guzzi-motorcycles/1100-MOTO-GUZZI-MOTORCYCLES/V11/2000/V-11-Sport--Mandello/1004 @activpop, be certain to use the Parts Catalog for V11 1999-2001 Sport/Rosso Mandello. I have found it very useful to buy a hard copy from an ebay seller as an adjunct to the online parts sources.

When ordering from a US dealer, certainly give a phone call to confirm inventory/availability: MGCycle/WI, HarperMoto/MO, AF1 Racing/TX, Cadre cycle/ OH. Also consider TLM/The Netherlands, Stein-Dinse/Germany, and Agostini/ Mandello, Italy

We are talking about these bolts of the rear cover?
