Please tell us about the first ride...

Too bad! To be honest, I counted on you both.

Not me, I've gone over to the dark side...

A few smilies can make a difference. Cheers!

Talk to MZNYC. As they say over here: "It's his party!" and he can use the V11LeMans.com logo freely. There is no money in it for me. And because it is hard to see if you are just pulling my chain or being serious please let me know off board...

Now that's funny! :D

There really is no "old logo" stuff anymore. I produced exactly as you ordered in 2007 (?). So no resurfacing of old stock!

Yep, but it wasn't an angry letter, but a friendly warning. If the design calls for a Moto Guzzi logo it will be incorporated.

FWIW, MZYNC came with the idea and I support it. My t-shirts have shrunk (?) quite a bit and I need some new apparel My shopping list: 1x Long sleeve XL black 2x T Shirt XL red/black 1x Fleece pullover red

For God's sake, a V11 clutch rattles. Period. Not every technical topic needs to end in a discussion. @RH Can't you take something for granted once in a while? Boy, I wouldn't be surprised that you wouldn't call a table a table if you didn't have credible sources. Lighten up!

You mean this: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=5774 ? If you try the advanced search, older topics will show.

I like orange and blue too, good combination, but not on a bike

I received the same press release. I thought the Furia kit was already available for a while. It has been on their site for a long time. Still waiting for the Sport Monza kit...

TX!!! Good to hear from you again! How are you doing? Btw, I think your above post is supposed to be a reply on the "dementia test" thread?

Lex, sorry to see you go! If you will, send the files to me, I will put them on this site. jaap v11lemans.com

Impulse buy. Good choice! Welcome to the forum.

Hi Lemmy, welcome to the forum! My 2 cents: First of all, ride the bike, it's a heavy bike and completely different from a 125. Not really a city bike in my opinion, but great for weekend trips. Saddlebags are easy to fit. (I use Oxford bags myself) There are plenyy of people who have fitted panniers. But don't expect them to fit right from the shelve. The V11 series are or will be classic bikes so in that area you will be satisfied. Also test ride it with your wife, not everyone is fond of the rear seating position. I'm 1,95 myself. I'm a bit cramped, but you will get used to that. It really is a bike you'll have to modify to suit your needs. A handlebar already makes a huge difference, and you have that already I see. When the bike is sorted properly, it's reliable and it will get you home. Moto Guzzi still suffers from a bad reputation that originates from the 80's. Maintaining the bike is quite easy. I do most of it myself and I'm not really gifted with two right hands... Parts are not difficult to find, a good dealer still can get you almost everything you need and there are some dealers that sell online and ship worldwide. And there are after market suppliers for lots of stuff. And, if you can't source through regurlar channels, the forum classifieds are a great source. (There is also a german V11 forum) Good luck!

I'd be up for it, if it weren't for the distance (I get serious saddle pains after 1637 miles in one day) and the gas prices.
