Is this an in tank fuel pump or external? External there is a cheap bosch fuel pump, I got one for $130AU new from a car parts place. I was also thinking about getting a tank that takes the in-tank pump and wondered if any of the other models from guzzi took the same pump system/ mounts as they all look roughly the same shape and size where they bolt to the tank from the pics but not sure if identical or just close. Would anyone know for sure?

Well.... can't be bothered riding in the rain these days. I would think that if the carbon is lacquered that will stop the issue.

Hi all, I was looking at my Cafe Sport and Griso which are nose to tail in my garage at the moment. I had a semi epiphany as it were that the ohlins carbon front guard thats on the Cafe Sport looks like it will line up perfectly with the Griso guard mounts. So then I start thinking if that is the case then other guards will fit the Griso since the Cafe Sport ohlins/Griso are fairly generic and there should be at least a Ducati and aprilia with the same setup. But getting back to the real question, my customised V11 has a stock guard and I think that guard/mounts are only found on this bike, yes? If this is the case, has anyone tried fitting another guard and made adapters to suit ? I'm thinking I will get a Ducati S2R or similar guard and just make a set of adapters as they seem to be easily available CF guards...

Added a carbon fibre fairing to the Cafe Sport Sent from my ELE-L29 using Tapatalk

So far yesterday on my custom V11 1. added fuel pump/injector relay 2. Placed the regulator with a single phase. I had a modified 3phase from a honda on it. 3. Replaced the pickup sensor for the speedo. 4. pulled the timing chest off so I can replace the cam chain with some of Joe's gears.

Special stretchy bolts. Did they charge you extra for these ? What did they say? Back it off half a turn...

Where did you find the carbon tank cover in the bottom right of the pic?

Looks like I've bought Richards 03 Cafe Sport ! The new owner is pleased too slowly cleaning her up and waiting for a little carbon fibre fairing for the front. IMG_20200202_112537 by Neil Morgan, on Flickr

A couple of nice points I took away from the article- Swapping the helical gears in the gearbox for straight cut. Cam is good enough for racing. Valvetrain weakest link. Almost 140hp at around 8500rpm was enough to win against more powerful or lighter bikes because of the power delivery/torque curve. Ride it a different way to get the most out of it (in racing). One of the most interesting features I gathered from the article is the lack of drag in the drivetrain compared to a chain drive. Always good to hear from a racer that competed on a budget DIY bike and came up against the odds - a winner. It's a marvelous achievement and one of the admirable features that I loved in the Britten story.

The Clutch is one thing. ask when it was last serviced - tappets, belts, air filter oil etc. Not sure how much that costs in the states, but in Aus - that would be the cost of the bike. $300 for a basket, $150 for clutch plates, 500 for someone to do the tappets (plus 60 per tappet part), 120+ for the belts, oils/filters $150. Plus some labour costs excluding tappets already allowed for. Then theres also chain, sprockets, tyres - potentially $600 there. Thats just standard service and wear items. If anything needs repair then add that into it.

Yeah, pretty standard for an ST2. Baskets wear on the spines and the rattling and gear shifts get worse. Barnett do a longer lasting clutch basket and plates to match. On the barnett clutch they have a stainless steel covers over the wearing areas and this helps make them last longer.

Hi Kevin, I sent you a PM, please reply.
