so it looks like big, but sometimes things can be to big, see this picure

I can't find anything different than the color between this red one, ond the first berlin pictures from the gray one.

Well the title tells a lot. He won the last race, on the 2 valve, watercooled very special evo mgs01. PIctures here from eurofrank: http://picasaweb.google.com/fmilazzo/MisanoSupertwins2007 Notice on the pictures, two mgs01, one with original engine, the other with the 2valve evo engine. The last one, its the one he raced in Daytona too, and has now uprated front forks, real superbike ohlins, with the billet brembo brakes.

steve, the engine case has molded in thicker parts where the holes are in. The holes end up just behind the clutch. If you want it, I suppose the best option is, -1 to buy an new v11 engine case. ( HMB in germany sells them) -2 bore a 25 hole where the holes should be, press a billet piece alu in and weld it inside and outside on the engine case. If you dare welding the case. but the brace between the porkchops makes sense from an engineering point. Another option would be to add lower frame rails, like on a tonti. This connects the bottom porkshop to the front engine bolt. and takes stress of the engine.

well, the ohlins would do a good job in your v11.. but 730 is the other road, and triple clamps have to be made to measure somewhere, nothing of the shelf that fits.

So since it's in canada, would this be the one that was sold from england to canada?

The daytona rs and v11 forks are a bit different from most other forks antwhere else used. They are longer, 770mm where most used on other bikes is 730mm. The 770mm ohlins isn't available from ohlins, only ohlins made a batch for guzzi to mount on the v11 scura, cafe sport, rosso corsa. The other thing beside lenght is the mounting in the triple clamps, it's top and bottom 54mm, no other ohlins forks have that. So if anyone wants a slip in replacement for the oem marzochi/wp forks, only ones are the ones guzzi did mount. I would't recommand ordering at your dealer, the price might be a very bad surprise. Guzzi did order more than they used in the v11, so the overstock was sold, when they stopped v11 production. And it happens that one of them ended up in my home, brand new, nice price. http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=12168

Well, before the change, we closed down the old forum, I made a database backup, and restored that on the new server. So all posts should be there. My edit gives a folding menu when I click it, let me choose full or quick, yours not? When youre not able to edit, could be a security setting that we have to adjust

hi Big J, long time no see. You did live a year without computer/internet? 10 years ago most of us did:-)

well, I skipped 2 years, so it's about time. But the date is most of the time in the middle of our holiday.

19 and 25 come in different thickness, thats all. from outside to in, you have 31-32-5-36 pushed to each other when you tighten up. 5 looks small but is the long spacer. I have 2 speare rear drives here so I can see easy. It is thight to each other when dismounted. Inner bearing 36 is ok?

well to find these would be nearly impossible. But they can be easy made in any workshop. Would say that whet you cut off that part from v11 header youre done. but can't find a picture of these to now. But it is a piece of pipe, with a spacer over it.

what I don't get clear from you story: you do have the spacer between reardrive and wheel, it falls out when the wheel is taken out, something like 20mm long? but to make things cler, lets talk by numbers, see picture 19.pdf

to make things clear, you don't have the parts marked yellow in my picture?

The gasket is a normal daytona gasket in the picture from zeb, so a standard sport 1100, NEW gasket will do. No cutting your own, buy one. Maybe a real mecanic is needed to fit the exhaust:-)

well, 3 and 6 look like a gasket. Do you have the partnumberlist with it? I would mount one or two gaskets there. silicone won't last, gets blown out. So it's leaking where you painted blue, between 1 and 7? the header sould be mounted without tension, so if you mount the header alone on the head, the backside of the pipe should be the same height as mounted with full system. capice?

There should be one between the head and the collar, the pipe with the collor shouhld be tight with the spings. Between what is it leaking? If you say bottom, it looks the silencers are to low.

The basic electronics is so simple, a decent shop should be able to find the problem. So what happens when you push the startbutton? nothing, not even a small relay click? Do the lights work? It's pathetic that a bike with a few small problems won't be repaired, so it could run lot of miles without problems. .

from braking nothing is available that fits a guzzi out of the box. The blue sport1100 wheels are adapted by dynotec in germany. So I suppose they can deliver a set fitting in your sport 1100. It has a 5.5 rear, so 180 wide tyre. It looks nice in the middle here: http://img258.imageshack.us/img258/8376/11oosport3zq0.jpg

The front wheel has a special way to mount disks. But it has road approval, so should be safe. But no other disks will fit to these wheels. http://img258.imageshack.us/img258/1697/img835io4.jpg

yes there is a cush, but thats for the chaindriven bikes. Fos a guzzi they would have to make a different wheel

the springs ohlins mounts are not marked.
