Ciao, Steve

I'm sorry John, I was thinking in the future when the bike becomes 15yrs old. You can aquire a collector plate earlier than the usual 25 yrs, if, 1500 units or less are made for that year, or the company has been closed down for at least 5 yrs. I managed to confirm my Laverda Jota production of 100 from Massimo Laverda, with a letter to ICBC.

Utimately, actual confirmed production totals would have to be released from Moto Guzzi public relations to take advantage of this. Luckily I have 9 yrs to work on it.

Post V11/Lemans production of 10,000 seems consistant to what I have heard from people who are in a position to know. These numbers are up from the V11/Lemans days, where total production including the 750's, and California based models, and all the variations of the basic V11 was around 8500 units. Taking that into consideration, one could surmise non limited edition V11 variants of around 600-800 units.

Hi, @laurent ! welcome to V11 LeMans.com! Certainly the right place for love, care, and feeding of your Sport!

Unfortunately, Steve G hasn't visited since 2011. Yet, there is another thread on this topic where members in BC reported success with the collector plates. Let me see if we can find it and post a link for you . . .
