Missoula, MT seems to be the spot @docc

looks like a clean 2004 Nero Corsa. 14k miles, clean body, Ferracci pipes: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/834749491825680

saw this advert when the bike was originally advertised for $11k. even at $9k it's still hella high priced. especially with 32k miles and crash damage on that right-side upper fairing...

any dyno graphs or raw numbers to show the improvements on your V11?

i'm in Florida at the moment @p6x, i fully understand what you're saying, completely. getting out of the shower in an air conditioned house, you start sweating before you're dry and feel like you need another shower before you've even left the bathroom. i need to get back to southern California as soon as possible...

very different culture between the U.S., especially Texas, than Europe. i've been fortunate enough to have a decent amount of motorbikes for a while. different brands and models for different purposes and rides. and some days i would even ride 3 or 4 in the same day. i too used to ride often, or find excuses to do nothing and ride somewhere. of course with the daily perfect, year round weather in Southern California, it's bloody hard not to...

i doubt it. but some people have more bikes than time. i bought my little Daytona 675R with 1,250 miles on it at a decade old. one of my Ducati's with about the same, and even older. my Aprilia with even less, 701 miles. my 1996 900ss came with 6k miles while two decades old. i have to say, i don't mind buying 'em with ridiculously low miles. nothing like a new(ish) 20 year old bike...

do tell...

the 3+ year search ended today when i picked up this pristine Le Mans near Atlanta. 3,500 miles, same owner for over 12 years, $4,500...

from what i've been seeing, for a very clean (base model) V11 Le Mans the sweet selling spot seems to be between $4,000 and $5,000. rougher examples are below $4k. i've been watching intently the last few years...

thanks heaps @audiomick. already on it, been in contact with Tom for a little while. his bike is in superb condition as advertised...

thanks heaps @Speedfrog. i will check out the one on the top, as the one below is sold already. much obliged sir... p.s. is there a way to get different mid-pipes to change the angle of the mufflers to their original slant?

i am mate. just something about that colour...

not my bike, but should be someone's: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1556527531589891

that is more in line with realistic pricing...

well, that was interesting! it was a 60th Anniversary crossplane crank R1 though, a pretty superb bike. try this one: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/462370239456218

i have seen that one, thank you mate. there is another i've been watching also, for under $5,000. 11k miles and fully serviced. these bikes just don't typically sell for big money... https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/459793800340877

first, i will agree with you, that i would think the vibe within in the team may very well be toxic, for Pecco. he won't like having Marc in the team with him, that is a clear threat to his superiority, which he clearly had with the #1 plate. however, he did not earn that up against a healthy Marc on a competitive motorbike. he and the entire grid knows that, which is why they all want to rough him up so badly now. and yes, you are right on another point. if Marc wins the title this year the credit will all go to him. and it will be rightly deserved. Martin has been on the Desmosedici for 4 years now, Bagnaia for 6. Marc for 5 race weekends, on the year old machine, on the third tier support team. and here is where i differ with you on the opinion of Martin being faster. Marc has three times, in two separate weekends, now caught the top two boys on Factory bikes coming from way back. and has passed each to beat both. and only not won by 3/10ths of a second from each rider. that makes Marc the faster rider. 3. it may seem that Martin has the exact same situation as Pecco, but it is not. the bike is not as up to date, and the amount of technicians is significantly less. that is why Martin wants to be on the Factory team. Pramac leases their bikes from Ducati, at a cost of around $2 million per machine. their team budget is significantly less, and the updates don't come as quick. even slower for VR46 and Gresini...

don't love the design myself either, but this is the reasoning for it:

#135. 10,600 miles. looks clean, fully serviced. down in Florida, Daytona Beach... https://www.cycletrader.com/listing/2002-Moto+Guzzi-V11-5031402917

that should say it all: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2004-moto-guzzi-coppa-italia-4/

all i know is, i saw this bike on FB Marketplace and thought someone on here should place it in their garage...

this isn't my bike lads, but i saw it pop up in FB Marketplace and i thought someone here might want it: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1414697602487585

around 3 years ago there was a guy in Louisiana who couldn't give his super clean Tenni with MG titanium pipes away for $4,000!
