The kit arrived but I decided to give it one more shot before the M/C rebuild. I bought a cheap Harbor Freight brake bleeder vacuum. Success in about 6 minutes! I Guess I needed to spend unnecessary money and waste a bunch of time like usual. With the benefit of hindsight, I'm glad I didn't burn the garage down. Thanks Doc

I ordered the kit from MG cycle. My sport has around 13000 miles on it.

If you mean play before the lever engages the piston. I don't know its tough to say with no pressure. I had the lever adjusted all the way out to lengthen the pull when I was pumping. That's not how I normally ride.

The spring is present. Note the glue or epoxy in the screw slot? I assume I want to be able to adjust this?

I was in the process of greasing the front U joint and inspecting bearings when I hit this snag. The bike is on a center stand on a lift with the swing arm removed. I even went so far as to carefully separate the perch from the bars and manipulate the whole thing so any bubbles had an opportunity to rise without letting the reservoir t draw air. I don't know why the PO glued the screw?? I can't imagine the MC just decided to poop the bed at the very instant I tried to maintenance it. I really have 2 choices. Figure it out or burn the garage down. I'm going to sleep on it.

I have rinsed and repeated several times and the result is nearly zero clutch lever. It was functioning fine before this attempted clutch fluid maintenance. After 5 reservoirs gravity flush I closed it up and 10 pumped repeatedly with a only slight boil over at the slave. I think I have a grasp on what needs to happen but i cant seem to get there. The slotted adjustment adjustment screw has also been epoxied in place as close as can figure. So I guess need to address that. What am I missing? Should I rebuild the master? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

Thank you very much sir! I seem to do this every time with brakes also. My least favorite part of maintaining these machines. Last year I took my k-bike in and had it done.

Good evening, In the process of bleeding/replacing the dot 4 in my clutch. Is it possible to ingest enough air into the system that it will barely move fluid at all?

I thought I was just a hack for leaving mine open continuously! I'm intrigued. YES

That's my favorite! Not sure if it's a silver bike with a black tank or a black bike with silver fenders. If there was only 15 of these things made, they are rarer than a Tenni! I'll start the bidding at $11,500

I'll see your TTB and raise you a Haynes! I'm taking my sons down to Deer Creek in June to see Bobby & the boys!

Replacement 20,000 km seemed a little ambitious but reasonable. They feel fine to me with no grit or slop. My bike seems to have been loved by its previous owners. I'm confident running them as is with fresh grease, but I think I'm going to pick up a pair or two and stick them on the shelf anyhow.

Will do. I didn't notice until yesterday that they recommend changing them out at 20,000 KM in the book.

I would be interested in a pair if you're ordering. Just let me know how much to 48066 and where to send it. I did some disassembly today and although the current units are still serviceable, I'd like to have a pair handy for the next time I change the tire.

Marketplace - 2000 Moto Guzzi V11 Sport | Facebook I'm not affiliated with this gentleman but this bike is one owner and looks very clean in Wisconsin.

I'm kicking myself as well. I haven't even tore into mine yet. Hoping mine are still serviceable. Curious, how many miles on your black sport?

I did my first oil change on my K bike and it was really nice. I'm looking for a restoration candidate right now so I'm hoping to use the hell out of it.

This winter I treated myself to a Chinese lift to work on my European scooters right here in the Motor City!
