  1. V11 Sport.. the last of the *real* Guzzis.
  2. FTFY
  3. Yep rear brake. My Centauro freaked me out the first time it did it.
  4. ^^^^^ I get mine from Aircraft Spruce.. I've never seen zinc chromate in a paint store.. it's dangerous if you don't respect it.
  5. She was installed by Todd at MPH (RIP) when Pete had it shipped out of N.H. to do the dual plate clutch, and many little things. She'll be there as long as I'm the keeper of the Mighty Scura..
  6. Washed the chook. She'd been complaining about bugs in her feathers since the Carolinas mini Spine raid. When she clucks, I listen.. she's kept me safe for many thousands of miles. 2017-08-18_03-06-47 by Charles Stottlemyer, on Flickr I hated to tell her she's going bald with age.
  7. You are likely to get burnt for that, Docc. Italian ladies tend to not be terribly forgiving of a wandering eye..
  8. As can be seen with the K line video, it's not rocket science. Just good standard machine shop practice, and no special tools, other than the rivet hammer, which is readily available cheaply.
  9. Shoulda gone red. Just kidding..
  10. Attaboy, Docc, and Scud. Btw.. this forum is priceless for V11S owners. Maybe a small donation to Jaap is in line? I've made the same pitch at WG. There was a guy stuck at a gas station in BF somewhere, posted, got his answer and rode off. A 10% donation of what he would have paid to have his bike towed to some dealer, and the bill from them would be cheap. I'll get off my soap box now.. but we all need to support this forum, it's the best in the world if you have a V11S.
  11. As Nike used to say, Just do it. It's a known issue..
  12. Uhh, you *do* have the supplementary ground wire, yes?
  13. We saw Susan when she was *very* young at the Indy jazz fest. At that time she sometimes sounded like Janice or sometimes Bonnie. Now, she sounds like Susan.
  14. For whatever reason, you are running way too rich.
  15. http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/appages/phnx-dblss-hose.php?clickkey=56085
  16. Try the 35mm film trick first.. http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19654 Or b bb buy (!) a tool from Motion pro, etc. *many* times that is all that is needed.
  17. No kidding. And.. will that $2000 module still be available? I know.. it's progress.. but the reason I ride a motorcycle is to enjoy "operating the machine." I want to be the guy that matches rpm, decides how much throttle and brake to apply, etc. Not some silicon based organism.. they'll take over soon enough.
  18. Uhhh.. CX100? C'mon Brad.. there's a story there.
  19. FWIW No less than Dr. John told Dave Richardson to use SG oil in Guzzis. That's good enough for me.

    v11 tool kit

    I could list what is in the factory kit if that would help you make up your mind..
  21. It's SG, though..
  22. Well, duh. That's been known for like what.. 15 years, now? They specd those springs for a 140 lb. Eyetalian guy. Maybe that guy in the ads that was wearing pajamas, barefooted, with his hands on her jugs?
  23. Thanks for the update..
  24. He was a better "musician" than most realize..
