Just for the record: It is NOT ok to sell your V11 and NOT advise the new owner to logon to V11LeMans.com. Just saying' . . .

As Czakky sez: it'll get better and better every time you tune it! Setting the CO requires software (guzzidiag) and cabling (an adapter cable and a OBD/FTDI to USB). Setting the TPS is best done with a "breakout harness." My three cables cost me $75US. guzzidiag is free! (Thank you Beard/Paul Minnaert/Meinolf!) Start with the TPS baseline setting. Replacing the Torx fasteners on the TPS with proper hex drives makes life better. ("Changing the fasteners to standard hex drives simplifies the process (4mm/0.7 thread pitch x 17mm long")

That's really special V11 . . .

+1! It is really important that your valves are adjusted, fresh plugs, and the CO has been "zeroed." Make sure there are no vacuum leaks (like a missing cap on the vacuum taps), and it is fairly critical to set the baseline mV on the TPS with a fully closed throttle plate (the RH screw has lots of metal to seat in, so just back it out until it no longer protrudes from the front of the boss). Remember, the cold start "high idle" mechanism can foul the right throttle as well. Really dirty throttle plates and air bypass screw tips can mess with your idle, so clean these well and try the screws out a full turn.

Easy: look for Goozies

Great to hear, man! I hope they didn't bust your Chianti cork - we'll have to come up with another!

+1 . . . adjust the valves, zero the CO trim with guzzidiag, fresh plugs, set the TPS and balance the throttle bodies. Magic! Thanks for sharing the adventure! Sweet looking LeMans!

Wait . . . what? In the 2012 SSR Tech Session we demonstrated the technique for carrying a full case of ale in the Tekno panniers. Brilliant! (til your early subframe tabs come from together! ) I figure a proper Daytona tow rig should be able to haul an entire keg, perhaps even a vat . . .

Man, I'm actually quite glad you're trailering your Daytona to the Spine Raid - more room for great beer (which you obviously have a taste for!)! You could earn a Special Designation . . .

Someone recently wished me the "luck of the Irish." I thought that was not so good. Instead, BFG, take all the luck from us with you! The luck from here in Tennessee is pretty darn good!

Wow, this stands to be a classy event. Could be a first!! (If some scruffy dude with a ponytail says he's there to valet park your Daytona, DO NOT give him your keys! )

At first I thought, "A $300 light bulb!" But, hey, it's a two pack!

Ducatis and Daytonas . . . not the usual SSR riffraff! Before you know it, some lovely couple will be serving espresso from a tricolor kiosk.

I'm not even sure what that headlight thing is. Reminds me of a mantle in a white gas lantern. We always thought of those a some sort of "fuse." The 1157 tail lamp looks like an LED I tried. It was bright, but extremely unidirectional. It did not illuminate the big, stock red lens which does a good job, otherwise, of throwing light in more of a "flare."

Right? That's what the long travel suspension is for! Win-win!

Somehow, this reminds me of people base-jumping in wing suits. Amazing, fascinating, stunning, and beyond my comprehension. One of those, "If this is the answer, what was the question?"

It is rare that the eccentric needs adjusting. Rather more common that the foot lever strikes the frame side plate ("pork chop") in the downstroke. Worth inspecting, cleaning, lubricating, and adjusting (perhaps even shimming) the foot lever first. By "clutch pump" I thought Tomek was referring to what we might say "master cylinder" although the slave could also be considered a sort of "pump" as well.

AKA "pulling the trigger!" I recognize the tags on the exhaust canisters!

I'm jealous! Wish I could get there!

What I said . . .

Sheesh - Laverdas? Helicopter pilots are afraid of nothing!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmholtz_resonance That is fascinating science. I had thought the turn-down snorkels were simply to reduce intake noise for regulation concerns. Now, I simply must find the write-up on increasing the bell mouths with heat and a glass bottle. Personally, I would be concerned about using the correct glass bottle . . .

I think we'll take this great topic up in 24/7 V11 to get the best traffic . . . Dream bikes you would like to have
