  1. forgot to add, 110 euro including shipping from france to ireland. The original part was 118 euro plus delivery from Agostini in Mandello.
  2. For all of you that broke the gearshift or the rear brake lever, here comes an option, Pete from reboot guzzi spares (www.rebootguzzispares.com) has manufactured the levers made of good alluminuim. I bought the gearshif lever from him, it's very tough and sturdy. Here are some pics. They are not very "cheap", 110 euro each, but cheaper than the original part from moto guzzi and made of a better material.
  3. Hi, tried to swap the relays as well but it didn't make any difference. On the other hand the misterium of the guzzi electrical system strikes again, after pushing the bulb in a bit, touching here and there everything is back working again. Tonti must have given a kick in the head"s" to my V11 from above.
  4. All I've done is change the switch on the brake lever on the handlebar, and now....... the front low light, and the back light, and the brake light, they are all gone. Checked the bulbs, they are ok, checked the fuses, they are ok. What the heck could it be? thanks guys
  5. Hi, I'm looking for a used, fully working fuel pump for the latest V11 Le Mans model. Cheers
  6. well at least you are sheriff, I'm the "panhead of the toecutters"
  7. ok, so nothing electrical/complicated involved, I just unscrew it out of the gearbox cover and change it? is that it? could it just be that it needs to be "lubricated" or something similar?
  8. Inailed the fucker, it's the neutral switch that fails, no neutral light, no engine running, but if lift the side stand, thebike strats normally. Emhhhh! what do I do now?
  9. haven't checked the battery voltage, battery connections are tight, sure of that, the bike does not show any visible low battery problem, when it starts, it starts great, when it does not start, it's always been after rain or shower. I had a while ago the problem that the starter wire broke, the idiot in the garage where I brought the bike to be checked stripped the insulation to check which wire was not working, from the starter down to the connection below the tank, and then sealotaped the wires instead of putting a proper insulation. I think that's the problem.....
  10. Hey huys, a little update on my electric problems: yesterday was a very sunny, warm, dry day (what the f.... does this have to do with the electrics? I'm coming there in a min), well, the bike started with on problems, all the electrics are working ok. I start to think that somewhere there is a cable that is not well insulated and it goes bananas when gets soaked (this is my technical explanation), I now only have to find which one it is.
  11. Hi, our fairy tale started when one morning out of nowhere I turned the key to start the bike and nothing lighted up, bike wouldn't start. Fuses ok, swapped the relays, no change. The following evening the bike would start normally. Now, It happened again after a couple of weeks, so I changed the fuses with those provided by Dan Prunuske, but still the problem persists. I get the oil light up, the pump primes, no front light, and most scary of all, when I press the starter the rpm indicator goes up and the relay starts ticking like hell. According to Dan if you put 5 pin relays instead of 4 pin relays it should work cause one of the pins is not in use. What the hell coulbe going on there? clutch or side stand or neutral switch? what else? Thanks guys
  12. Hi, are there any news about these pilion pegs? do you think you will produce a good number or at least some of them?
  13. Hi guys, I would like to grease the drive shaft myself cause i'm sick of having to go to the garage every time ( and btw I'm not sure they are doing it correctly anyway), so I read all the treads available, I think I got an idea about what I need to have and to do, but thereis one thing I did not find anywhere. The shaft arm and the joints are covered with a mixture of dust and grease, should I clean them before greasing the nipples? if so, what product should I use? thanks.
  14. I'm going to check the place out on saturday mornng and let you know guys.
  15. they look very nice, where did you get the parabolic mirrors that you sticked in the inner part of the mirrors?
