  1. Never heard of him. And I thought I knew everyone in the area.
  2. Can the lower mount be replaced? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. No, let's see where the ebay one goes. I think this one is being offered at $11k.
  4. There's one here for sale. Immaculate condition.
  5. Here in the States they highly recommend a peek at 50 yrs old. I had mine a year early so I'm good for a while. I asked for a copy the video and they said they don't record it. Right...
  6. No pics of the procedure please.
  7. You really need to create a new thread and tell us way more details about the bike. Pretty please!?!
  8. As noted the current rear master is way too small for two calipers. You may need to go to a vintage rear master (Ducati 900SS Bevel) to find one big enough? I need to go to the gallery to see what brakes you're actually using now.
  9. 14.4V at idle sounds high, what is your idle speed? I think it sounds like a regulator issue...
  10. Sweet baby Jesus. A solution looking for a problem. Sizing the master cylinders will be critical. Get that sorted and go from there. This is a good starting point: https://www.vintagebrake.com/mastercylinder.htm
  11. Don't be afraid to go bigger with the pics.
  12. I've been using Flickr the last couple of years. Yeah, I know.. yay hoo, but it's fast, and fone friendly. No stupid ads, pop ups, opening another tab, worms, like you get with PB. Flickr has gotten much better. I've moved to it too.
  13. Got around to replacing the front turn signal. It was dodgy when I got the bike but good enough. Until now. The whole assembly was $21 from MG Cycle. Has anyone removed the extensions? Will the signals fit with a Scura fairing with them removed? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    You forgot Earthquake season.
  15. With that many mods I would probably take it to a tuner who can create a custom map. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It's been over 100˚F the last two days. Too hot for recreational riding. It's supposed to cool off to riding temps in a few days.
  17. 122hp vs 90? Claimed for both.
  18. Do you just have one bike? I assume with 1.4 billion miles on the V11 you must.
  19. The Norton is a pretty close comparison to the V11. Similar weight, Norton a little less, similar HP, Guzzi ahead here, and similar handling. Norton gets marks for latest Ohlins. $20k vs $4k... Another similar bike there was a Kawasaki ZRX1200. Guzzi has it on weight but gives up a little HP. Suspension on the Guzzi is probably better. Prices about the same. Both green!
  20. I actually got to ride the bike for once. We have Two Wheel Tuesday events here, 1st Tuesday is at a vintage collection location. Smaller collection but the quality is ahem, high. This last Tuesday (3rd Tuesday of the month) is at another private collection. Nearly all Japanese and pretty desirable bikes. Anyways, a few fun bikes showed up.
  21. The real downfall is that not everyone is funny.

    So are like the sidewalks off limits for riding on? Just saying...
