Because of longer lead time advertising, catalogs, etc. will often show pre-production product. This is true across all industries.

It may not fit if they heat sink is on the outside of the light. How much room is in the bucket? They often provide the bulb dimensions. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

When I was balancing my throttle bodies someone, probably docc, said make sure they aren't stripped. Of course they are. As I'm not a fan of the Helicoil I'm fixing it once with Timesert. Step by step to follow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The fan will work even inside a bucket. It just needs to cool the electrics on the LED. Remember it's only 20w. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah, what kind of tool would do that!

So you're going to make me pull out the bulb and try it on the V11? Sooooo demanding!

I've only gotten 40mpg once. And never 200 miles. I might need to back off the throttle...

I bet there's a thread in 24/7 about this already...

My record in the short time I've had it is 169 miles. Freeway miles coming from SF. The record for most gas in the tank is that time I ran out and it was 5.006 gals (US). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Didn't I do that? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think it has a headlight, LED. Might be some hidden turn signals too. Stock mufflers are crazy heavy, along with the wheels. 30lbs for a frame is reasonable although you could trim that down a bit. Especially that rear subframe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You can bypass the Sidestand Switch by simply shifting into neutral. And then you could have a bad Neutral switch? Do you remember the good old days when the fanciest thing you had to worry about was if your Boyer was going to fire?

Side stand could have been knocked down from the impact, which looks to be substantial.

The headlight won't make a dent. I'd be more interested in a HID if the headlight shell can take the heat.

Is it really that weak? I have LED bulbs in my vintage bikes because they are actually weak and every amp counts. The V11 seems to be putting out decent voltage barely off idle. What it is the amp rating on the alternator?

No one mentioned this but maybe the side stand switch? Bypass it and see if you still have a problem? That's where it seems to have started.

Light works great! Ignoring the light for too long... not so much. It started to flicker and I thought about getting gas. Wife texted me and asked me why I wasn't getting the kid from daycare. So I headed home asap. I thought I had enough to get home but it started to sputter and I was in the countryside and away from a gas station, I managed to make it to the nearest gas station but if it had been a few more feet I think I would have been pushing it. Luckily the last 1/2 mile was downhill. They didn't have a reserve on EFI bikes because they assume if you don't pay attention to the light it's your own damn fault.

All that matters is that you're ok, bike and bike parts can be replaced.

Bodywork is aluminum.

What does the stock spine frame weigh?

@Cash, I can't get that to link. Could you give it a look? https://www.thirdgear.com.au/motorcycle-hid-xenon-35-w-bulb-kit/ Someone forgot the "m" in "com". Not sure how that happened.

I didn't see any posts for either titanium or the builder's name. http://thebikeshed.cc/2017/05/04/paul-milbourn-customs-moto-guzzi-titanium/ 155kg WET. 340lbs... I though the powertrain alone weighed that much! This guy is bonkers brilliant.

This is the one I put in the 850-T. Mind you it only has one element so you may not like the light pattern. I ride that bike during the day so it's ok.
