Hmmm... we better ask more computer savvy people. Perhaps your download has not been installed yet?

Nope.

Further riding this afternoon and I find the change from the #008 O-rings to the 4mmx2 metric made no difference. Seems the #008 will work fine as far as I can tell. Just make certain the O-rings are fuel compatible (preferably Viton, although Nitrile/BUNA-N is probably fine. Nothing from the ACE plumbing aisle! ) My bad running issues look to be down to a bad TPS setting . . . Close, but no good.

@velofish took his ad down here after he reported the bike sold. wildguzzi links never work for me, either . . .

McMaster-Carr usually is not horrible on shipping ($39 is horrible!) For sure, that was not some kind of expedited shipping (overnight or 2-day)? With taxes, the O-rings here were $1.54US each, so right at three bucks to take care of a V11. Bringing a little SpineRaid swag with me to Kentucky . . .

Haha, yes, indeed! A 2mm cross section with a 4mm O.D. would have no hole would it? I sourced these at a local rubber&gasket supply, but here they are, in Viton, at McMaster-Carr: https://www.mcmaster.com/9263K163/ I see that they are more reliable reporting the dimensions . . .

Pretty sure I should have gone with these GG from MGCycle, instead of the SHH. My bad . . . https://www.mgcycle.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=110_122&products_id=1604

My "OE" Brembo pads should arrive in a couple more days from OPP Racing, Washington USA. I had to remove the Brembo "Sinter" pads after just 80 miles. I could already see/hear the rotors scoring. YMMV, but I have had very poor results (excessive rotor wear) from HH rated pads on my V11 before. It seems the OE pads, and our rotors, are rated FF. Certainly not "SHH."

I added that link to your last post, @audiomick, and declared that post the "answer" to this thread (at least for now) . . .

I see a "Z" number in your Stein-Dinse link and recall your saying that is an "outside supplier." 7,60 Euro instead of 21,19 Euro for the Moto Guzzi part number . . . https://www.stein-dinse.biz/product_info.php?products_id=464485

I'll bet this fellow, @nakaimoto, can't wait for the "shipping soon!"

Correct metric air bypass screw O-rings in Viton, 75 Durometer,(4mm O.D. I.D. x 2mm cross section), compared to the (U.S. expedient) #008, the inside diameter (I.D.) is especially suspect (loose). The #008 (right) is visibly undersized, yet so very close. Correct metric O-rings installed in mySport, now, and awaiting a check ride to see if this issue introduced the nasty hiccup/cough/stumble/hesitation at various new rpm once warmed up, or if I jacked up the TPS setting with my last "Tune-up." >unscientific< comparison shown in thousandths of an inch. Original Moto Guzzi green O-rings shown top, left ("probably" Nitrile). Opening, and zooming, the higher resolution image clearly shows one is damaged.

Big, smelly people come around the Guzzi breathing heavily. True, this NEVER happens on my Honda . . .

All just lively conversation!

Wow, y'all have taken this so beyond "fishing" . . .

FWIW, the original part number 01114300 intake rubbers, linked below, on US eBay. (Pretty sure the replacement number 01114390 remain available from more common sources at about half this price.) . . . https://www.ebay.com/itm/383010683551?hash=item592d373a9f:g:o48AAOSwPYZU-JRE&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA0EOUxhiB5hKymZNss75N9HTp8sHrB696so31bKbWImC6B8e2MxYA1L3YJ2eXLtWJ5Q70hZiOCi4pn5r9zkSpI9rJKtZ5242WUfB3sgJiLYLD6ivipgFvvVFoqm275oIs2opWP4K4oNZixdrM6zcG9pzIesq0zNVx6TJS1oJA04cSnW%2BWbo2FpATEol77ilzcUHBfu4X06a1ZAdqjNzFWezcI00%2B5NhvhMZwluGSJKRf5VL1NppdZb9EPn%2Fr4fyC9woslJDHPDW0OWyT4%2FzVdjLA%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR5L_mNr_YQ

Unlike some other Guzzi, the V11 does not get it's timing trigger from the flywheel, so (as you say) the position would only affect the markings (D/S) used to position the motor for the valve adjustments.

Great plan! For best outcome, combine the Lucky Phil Shift Improvement(s) . . .

I will always remember this version of the Quota at my dealer when I bought my Sport. It has always captivated me, yet the height/weight seems unwieldy for me. While I have not ridden one, I recall a pair of them struggling on switchbacks in the West Virginia hills/"mountains". One of them had grounded a "pannier"/ hard side case, that had pitched him off. "Dr. John's DirtBike" . . .

"I'm here for the pain."

That appears to be a pain panier . . . "bread basket" . . .

So, this is an alternative to the 2-cable set we were previously sourcing from Lonelec?
