Problem is that in midsommer lots of people are on vacation. But If you do it on the weekends you mention I could well be visiting Ireland for the 2nd time.
Sometimes there are complete keysets for sale. Try www.rebootguzzispares.com or ebay: http://www.ebay.de/itm/MOTO-GUZZI-V11-LM-V-11-LE-MANS-SCHLOsSATZ-ZUNDSCHLOSS-/180710254052?pt=Motorrad_Kraftradteile&hash=item2a132ba5e4
I have a complete set that came off a '02 V11 LeMans for sale if you're interested. Don't think they're any different from what you have on your V11. Send me a PM
Somehow media coverage Sandy got over here wasn't as huge as Katrina got a few years back. Don't ask me why. It's a good thing when artists get together and raise money (and awareness) for whatever good cause.
The concert didn't get any attention over here. At least not that I've noticed. Can't speak for other European countries.
Don't know the guy, he comes from a part of Holland (upper North) where there is nothing to do, nothing to see, the people are surly (?) and the roads are all straight.
Didn't see or hear anything. What was it for? Some sort of relief concert?
Talkin about Billy Joel; Yesterday I saw him appear on the TV show Cafe Racer (Discovery Channel). He talked about choppers and how he didn't understand why people made their already dangerous hobby even more dangerous by riding contraptions that don't handle and hardly brake (and make you look silly...)
Ever wanted to ride on Assen track? The Valhalla of European motorsports? Here's your chance.
The combined dutch Italian bike clubs together with CRTHolland organise the Ital Trackday.
If you're interested let me know
Keith, thanks for the small paint scheme change. I didn't notice it at first. You are right, it looks better. Maybe a project for next year.
Dead battery after six months of only starting but not running the bike.
The tail will look clean, but the sound of the QuatD box is horrible and it ruins the line of the bike; the horizontal line of the sump does not continue in the QuatD. And more importantly: you lose horses ánd torque.
I would reconsider! But the G-B kit: nice to see yet another one on the forum!

It's relatively straightforward. You need a pre 2002 (red) front subframe and the 4V throttle bodies. You can use the V11 wiring loom, only the connector to the TPS is different. The 6 speed fits w/o problems.
