01 Sport-What to check?

[daveco2]

I have my eye on an 01 V11 Sport. Anything special I should be aware of or that I should check - recalls, pawl springs, etc?

 

Thanks for any comments

This will be my first Guzzi.

Thanks for any comments,

A important thing to check is the "frequently asked questions" section of this website. A list of things to review on potential purchaes appears here: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=5692

 

Fun bikes if you enjoy getting your hands dirty!

Dave,

I would have a look at the torque arm to see if the bushings are shot, some died really fast. Also some cracked the plastic side covers really fast at the mounting screws, not a real problem, but an easy way to get a $200 price reduction, plus check for the usual stuff.

Cheers,

Jon
