  2. Speedo reset button around back. I hadn't thought about that. I need to read through the manual again to what exactly it controls other than the trip reset. On the gauges the button sets the limit for the light to come on.
  3. So the gauges came in. I had initially ordered them with all with no front buttons but they called me after they left the art department and were headed to the assembly department that only the speedo and tacos could be had without buttons. If I had known this I would have not ordered them as such. It was too late to bach up. Now I'm stuck with the ugly cheap switch they provided and I' currently looking for another switch. I had to open up the holes for the speedo and oil gauges but everything fits now. I now need to order my LED warning indicators. I'm going with APEM 6mm panel mount LEDs. I've used these with good success on a previous project. They are rated IP67 and have built in resistors. I'm using the flush design but they are available in other styles and sizes. Once I get the holes drilled the panel will be off to be powder coated. I haven't decided if I going with flat or sating black. Although wrinkle black might be a possible color too.

  4. Thanks for the compliment! I've ordered the new gauges with no front buttons. I also plan on switching the gauge lights so they aren't on all the time. Using the park light as a feed is a good idea. For idiot light lights I'll only need neutral and fuel. I'm also adding another light for the Clearwater driving lights which will be triggered by the high beam.
  5. SOLD I'm selling a brand new Speedhut GPS Speedo and Tach. Spec are listed below. I bought these last August but never got them installed.

  6. So I've just ordered my gauges from Speedhut. Actually this is my second order. I decided to be different. It sure was nice that they are having a sale through today. Anyway here is my template of my idea for the perfect gauge cluster. Now I have to find a buyer for my first set.
  7. Thanks for the assist! I ordered both parts through Amazon and should have them early next week. I still have plenty of other stuff to work on until they arrive. To everyone else. I will try to gather some photos of the install.
  8. I've decided to try one of these JW Speaker light assemblies. Did you also buy or need any other parts for the install? Where did you buy yours?
  9. I think this qualifies as a dream bike since it isn't even released yet. I'm not a cruiser guy but when I first saw this it just grabbed me. I've already started saving.
  10. I have a set of Convertibars on my V11. They were easy to install and offer many positions. https://convertibars.3dcartstores.com/Moto-Guzzi-V11-Lemans-Bike-Specific-Kit_p_200.html
  11. Here are a pair of links for a LED twilight and headlight conversions from Harper. The tail light is suppose to be a direct bolt in replacement. I'm not sure about the headlight. I've got the tail light on order. http://www.harpermoto.com/led-taillight-conversion-for-v11-sport-and-lemans-1999-2004.html http://www.harpermoto.com/l.e.d-headlight-retrofit-kit-481102.html
  12. Last year or maybe the year before I bought the Motratech kit for my 04 LeMans. At that point I was going to turn it into a serious long distance bike with bags and even an aux fuel cell. Well things change and I bought a Can Am Spyder for my long distance machine and now the Guzzi is going back to it original form so I don't need my Motratech kit. It has never been installed. I've been planning forever to put it up for sale but just never got around to it. Bottom line is it's for sale for $350.00 and that includes shipping via Priority Mail. PM me and let me know. Now I'm going to go list it on the for sale page too.
  13. has not set their status

  14. 11:00 AM - 2nd Saturday of every month. Elk Restaurant on the square in Elkhorn, WI Anything special this Saturday? Last time I went up there was a pre-ride meet from Kenosha I believe. Anybody planning on going?
  15. I went to this a couple of years back and a grand old time. In fact my avatar pic is from that event. They serve up a steak dinner on Saturday night that is great! I'm planning on taking the Tuono this year as the LeMans still isn't back together.
  16. I also have a set of brand new stock pipes. These are off of my 04 LeMans. They have less than 100 miles on them. PM me!
  17. Greetings, I'm that dude! Here is a link for you. And yes I'm using all stock lines, no extensions and for me it put the bars right where they needed to be. I highly recommend them. http://www.convertibars.com/ProductsBike.c...=+Next+Step%21+
  18. I'm in the process of installing my Roper sloppage plate and just reallized that I don't know what to torque the bolts back in at. I've did several searches and came up with nothing. Anybody out there know?
  19. One more important step to add to add to Henry's list. Disconnect the power to the pump first and spin the engine a few times to depressurize the lines. With NO pressure this make it a lot easier! This was a light bulb moment when I found out this little step.
  20. I have Convertabars on my 04 LeMans and I used the stock cables. I'm roughly 1.5" higher and 1.0" back. It made a lot of difference. So yes it can be done without changing cables.
  21. About the only thing I can think of is, that's different and the music sucks. By the way I like the photo of the 77 RS!
  22. Very nice indeed! Now all you need to do is get the pipes ceramics coated in black.
  23. Yep, you got me. That WAS a good one!
  24. Nope, you can get higher bars on a LeMans. I have a pair of Convertabars on mine and they are great. I'm using all stock lines and it got me to just the right spot. http://www.convertibars.com/ProductsBike.c...=+Next+Step%21+
  25. My 04 LeMans also has Mistal carbons on it and the sound is glorious.
