I still have it. He can reach me at 11moto11 at gmail Ken

Located in Milwaukee, WI I’m the second owner of this well sorted bike. I bought this in 2014 from a guy that had it in a storage facility in Michigan and it hadn’t been ridden in a few years. I bought it basically sight unseen, trailered it home and basically pulled it apart and cleaned every single bit of it. This bike has been at every WI Guzzi Rally from 2015-2019 and has been on several long weekend trips without issue. I unfortunately don’t have the time to ride much anymore, so it’s time to sell. I’ve never laid this bike down, and it doesn’t appear that the original has crashed it either. It starts within a few seconds and runs strong and shifts easily. New oils and oil filter this year. Air filter was replaced in 2019. Valves have been adjusted as needed, TPS set and everything has been regularly lubed and fluids replaced as needed or according to schedule. Aprox. 20k miles. Purchased with bad odometer (original owner said he put about 10k miles on it). Has a Speed Hut mechanical Speedometer and tach on it which has a custom made GM speed sensor on it (see pic). DM for more info and pics Ohlins suspension and fork brace. Fork seals were replaced in 2019 when the tires were installed by Ducati Milwaukee. Battery is about 4 years old and has been on a Battery MINDer with desulfator. It’s as strong as ever. Meinholf fuel/air map on it and it runs great! Has a spare set of wheels on it powder coated in black with 90 degree angle valve stems. I also have matching black "pork chops” which I haven’t had time to install. The alternator cover has also been powder coated black, as well as the cylinder head covers. Cylinder head covers and engine crash bars Shad top box and Hepco Becker side cases with keys TTO engine block thermometer Oxford heated hand grips (best on the market IMHO) HID headlight (I have the original Bosch unit as well) as well as factory headlight mount. Current headlight mounts are from an EV model. Folding shift lever ADV Monster LED driving lights with remote (see pics) Fuzeblock for all added accessories Roper slopper plate Ducati Monster carbon fiber headlight flyscreen Pirelli Angel GT II tires installed in 2019 with less than 2k miles on them. I believe I replaced the rear brake pads then, and the fronts are in great shape. CRG bar end mirrors (I believe I have the original mirrors). Pazzo adjustable levers Gold handlebars have been painted black Aftermarket exhaust crossover (I think it’s Stucchi). The original is included with the sale

$400 Shipped CONUS. I'll put them on eBay soon if nobody here wants them. I'm done with loud pipes, so I went back to the factory units a few years ago. They do sound amazing! Good overall condition, no road rash at all. They could use some good polishing to look great again. They are the stainless steel round version. Pics are too large to post here, so pm me for pics.

I have the GT2's on my V11 Sport, and I don't like the way they feel on grooved pavement. Haven't ridden much with them, but they seem acceptable on non grooved pavement. I really did like the original GT's. Ken

This would be the "bullet" connectors on the left side of the bike. There's a pic towards the bottom of this thread. Check this as well Ken

Simple things to check: 1. Make sure the hose on the new fuel filter isn't loose. If it's an external filter, it'll be easy enough to check. Might as well make sure the flow is the proper way as well. I'm sure you did it right the first time, but it doesn't hurt to double check. 2. Make sure nothing crawled inside your exhaust pipes or intake. 3. Did you fill up with gas right before this happened? 4. Make sure the throttle linkage moves freely with the throttle. 5. Check the fuel overflow hoses that connect to the underside of the tank. I don't know what happens if these aren't connected 6. Check the coil connections if you took the tank off. Hopefully you didn't bump a wire loose. If you have guzzidiag, you can test the FI and the TPS with it, as well as check for faults. That would save some time vs. testing everything manually with a multi meter. Hope this helps, Ken p.s. crank sensor is on the left side of the bike towards the front of the engine. 2 bolts hold it in, and it's oval shaped. I don't remember where the connector is, but you may have to lift up the tank a bit or remove it. I replaced one last year on a EV side car rig with Chris Collins, and I think it was somewhere under the ignition or behind the headlight on that bike. Ken

Thanks so much, Marty! I just ordered the Moly dry lube and Kluber 30PTM. Should have them both on Friday. Ken

Now that I have your attention, I had my wheels powder coated, and I was wondering if I need to put grease or anything on the cush drive rubber bits. Thanks for your prompt response, Ken

After using the BatteyMinder 12248 on both my bike batteries this winter (Odyssey in V11 and AGM in V7C), they are good to go. As of last fall, neither would hold a charge for 1 week. After leaving them connected to the Batteryminder for 2 weeks each (in desulfation mode), both bikes fired right up after 1 month on sitting in the garage while being connected to the bikes. Ken

Was it just Jones Spring Co. or was it part Joens Big ass truck rental and storage? Or Jones Good Ass BBQ and Foot massage?

Just ordered some...Thanks!

I remember those days in grade school, and it made so much sense. We should've just made the transition then. FWIW, it's nearly impossible to find an all metric tape measure in the states...I've been searching for more than 20 years. Ken

IIRC, Pete Roper mentioned not to run a wire directly to the battery. It was something like that if the wire burns up, it will cause more problems. A hefty wire directly to the engine block was his recommendation. Ken

This thread has saved my Odyssey battery from my V11 and the AGM from my V7 Classic, so this lengthy thread is worth it. Last November neither battery was holding a charge. They're both doing well as of now. Thanks to docc and all of the others for their info! Ken
