  1. On ImgZeit, select the size (full, large, medium, small) on right before copying the BB code.
  2. Tried the Goof-Proofed Tank-on Method with a simple ratchet strap? http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=20071&p=223768
  3. Riding today, the quick, short shift is really a notable improvement (especially on the downshift for some reason) !
  4. I downloaded mine early in the *game*. I don't doubt PB is interfering with the downloads now. I can see if it can be tested. They're your images. You ought to be able to get them.
  5. What's your weight in full gear?

    guzzidiag and the correct cabling are your best bet.
  7. I'm not sure these tanks don't just stretch regardless. I've been *pretty diligent * with zero ethanol fuel and my tank is probably 10mm long. Recently, I emptied it completely and left it open about a week and it still needed compression to mount.

  9. The perfect compliment to my new clutch!
  10. There, for just a second, I watched you walk up to the Guzzi and > > edit What? Where did the lingering views of the sweet silver Guzzi go? (I know you lingered. I just know.) Thanks, again, for all the extra effort and sharing! I love it when the videos capture the V-twin exhaust note.
  11. Photobucket is so slow these days there's no hope of getting the photos off. I have the originals but they aren't as well organized. Keep working on downloading your albums back from them. Once you have them, you can restore images as you see fit. V7cafe's ImgZeit is worth a look. It reminds me of "Beard" building "guzzidiag" for the community.
  12. I'd go on record as saying that the Chuck-Made/LuckyPhil Shift Extender® is, to me, an emblem of this entire community. My V11 shifted *fine* before. But, I am so jazzed to have this piece on my Sport - it so embodies all of the people (all over the world!) that have helped me enjoy this bike for all this time and, most recently, put this Sport back on the road after an unexpected failure. Y'all rock. *All y'all*
  13. You can download your P-Blockit albums to your computer: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1767&p=223608 Then, consider uploading it in large blocks to ImgZeit: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=20048
  14. Clutch and clutch actuation are fantastic! Shifts great! Sorting the typical sticky bits of having had something down far enough to peer inside the crankcase. Second shakedown ride today and even the short list is looking ticked off.
  15. Here's K&N's page on crankcase breather filters: https://www.knfilters.com/vent.htm?pkid=4731016&rw=1
  16. No response from Grimeca in two weeks. Someone else may want to contact them?
  17. No matter what map, you still have to index the map to the TPS "157 mV" baseline with the throttle plate fully closed, and zero the CO Fuel Trim. Oh, and the valve adjustment, balance the Throttle Bodies . . . Starting point: Decent Tune-up
  18. I've got to say you guys really helped me out with your videos while my Sport was down (for almost seven weeks!) . . . Thanks for going to trouble to rig, ride, edit, and post!
  19. 1) Buy beer, invite friends: (photo courtesy of Nick, 2016 South'n Spine Raid) Or, 2) Use The Goof-Proofed Tank-on Method: Helps if the tank is empty, and tighten a little at a time.
  20. Hm, yeah, they probably don't to be that tight to seal. Once the lid deforms, it would unlikely to get back right. Good news is, lots of folks take them off for pods, so, maybe you could come by one easily? For extra fun and *tuning* purposes, apply the proper >glass mandrels . . . (There is always the joy of emptying the 'glass mandrels.')
  21. The light will begin to glow at steady speed or at idle on level ground with a bit under one US gallon on the left side of the tank. Opening the throttle sharply, going uphill, or leaning left will extinguish the light. Having just drained my tank completely dry, I added back maybe a gallon and half from the gas can. The light came on going to town for fuel, quite steady. Filled with nearly 4.4 US gallons. If I catch it right at the first glow, 4.1-4.2 USg. At ~5.1 gallons down, I'm sputtered out. A deep tip to the left from a stand still will slosh some of the trapped 0.8-1.0 US gallons over to the left (petcock) and will get you a little piece down the road . . . This is the early external pump/ chin pad tank. YMMV!
  22. Having just replaced my tank, I can't imagine what would warp that piece. It is very tough and durable. A previous owner perhaps way overtightened it?
  23. Wow, nice! I totally did not get the headlamp mount until now. She looks like a thoroughbred launching into a jump. A panther pouncing upon an unlucky jumbuk. A fighter aircraft hopping from the carrier deck . . .
  24. Right? I think it's great to learn and especially great that Troutman can learn so much about his V11 before he even swings a leg over it! So, I had heard that the "Sport" configuration of fork mounted headlamp/instruments carried over into the later years, and here, apparently, is an Öhlins-equipped Café Sport just so. Troutman will have to find out if that is all fitted by a dedicated owner . . .
  25. The main connector on the right side is shown apart in the image (male/center-top, female/ in front of the coil). Not AMP Super-seal? What is it? After I put this all back together, I had power failures to the instruments and headlamp. This connector had *clicked* into place, but wasn't actually making good contact. Do-over:
