  1. I had Apex adjustable clipons on my V11 Le Mans so I know they work with the fairing and you can move them higher or lower, I ordered them from the USA from their website, order 54mm clamps
  2. Hello Bryan the Nero is looking good hope you are loving it, I just picked up this nice Greenie, 13k miles and never seen rain

    Hi Ti

    Have a look at Ventura luggage kits, works for me

    Parts Bike

    The tubed bracket is part of the Ventura rack fitting kit, do I get a prize?
  7. Same pushrod when I did it .
  8. Simon, I am not getting much interest in the Cafe Sport I have for sale so I'm seriously considering breaking it for spares, the Ohlins suspension and engine are worth quite a bit, although it would be a shame as there are not many in the UK, if I go this route I will put your name down for the clutch assembly which was recently renewed.
  9. sold
  10. It happened to me and other V11s the same day in the Spanish mountains after a lot of downhill bends but never in the UK
  11. Ventura V11 fitting kit, sport rack and pack rack, £100 for the lot, 07976 849955
  12. Cost £80 and there's a choice of colours inc all black, one small issue the rubber seal around the outside won't fit in as there's not enough gap with the Oberon, Phil, will the seal fit in on the MC kit?
  13. Half turn to unscrew it and yes I realize that you can't lose the stock filler but it looks so cool
  14. Oberon part number 0421 listed for Aprilia and Triumph fits the V11
  15. They are mistral and came from teo lamers in Holland. They call them stirup high mount and there's a set on ebay
  16. Fitted this leather seat cover found on Ebay UK for £44 any colour you like it just staples over the stock cover
  17. Mine broke last week on the way to Germany, it didn't even make the Dover ferry, I tried ordering from Gutsibits and they did not seem to have one listed for a Le Mans with ITI speedo without the angle drive, the top connector on the ITI cable is smaller than the Veglia ones, so I ordered the one for the early model that has an angle drive and ITI speedo, as I had a new angle drive in stock I just fitted it with the new cable and it's fine so far

    I've had the Apex adjustable clipons for a while now and they are spot on, I have the clamps facing backwards to bring the bars closer, fit them above the top yoke just like the stock clamps, I had to drop the forks about 10mm as the Apex clamps are deeper, you will need a longer brake pipe also, order 54mm clamps and 4inch risers
  19. I picked up a complete assembly on ebay you will also need the deep hub. Gutsibits had a used clutch a while back. To buy all the parts new is over £1500
  20. No problem Stew, just like buying shit, and you don't need the key
  21. Ok I have had no reply from Oberon so after doing a bit of research I have bought a cheap cap just in case it didn't fit, it is for an Aprilia Mille up to 03 and some Triumphs, as you can see it fits fine, it cost £30 from the Bay
  22. I've got these on my Nero, you need to order 54mm clamps http://www.apexmfg.com/all-products/apex-clip-ons/apex-3-riser-clip-on-set
  23. 2005 Le Mans Nero Corsa in the UK
  24. You can find a good standard V11 Sport for £3k, the V11 Le Mans can be found for a bit more money and has a good fairing for touring, that's why I have one, these bikes are basically the same spec, pre 2001 they had a narrower rear wheel, silver forks engine and wheels after that black, then you have the limited edition bikes, Nero Corsa, Rosso Corsa, Scura, Tenni, Rosso Mandello, and Cafe Sport again basically all similar spec but some have Ohlins suspension, the Cafe Sport and the Ballabio have normal alloy handlebars the rest have clipons If you want a limited edition V11 you won't have much choice in the UK, I paid £6k for my Nero and that Tenni for sale is top money but where do you find another one, that said a standard V11 Sport will do the same thing for less money. Hope this helps with your decision
  25. Scott, buying a Guzzi is not the 'sensible thing' to do, you buy one because you want one not because you need one, if you have any second thoughts then buy a Yamazuki and you will never break down and it will run smooth forever without getting your hands oily, it is my Cafe Sport you are thinking about buying and it's difficult to compare it to others cos it's the only one for sale in the UK, I am not trying to talk you out of it but I think you should know what you are getting into.
