Jap In OZ Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 Just took it for a blast,a friend of mine has this airplane maintenance shop..i just had to make this pic Hey Jasper, You be carefull with that loud Guzzi on Texel, I am not kidding when I say that the combination of sheep and Guzzi doesn't work! The sheep got scared than it scared me and we both ended up in the barbwire! The sheep survived a bit better than the scura, the scura still has the battle scars to show for it! (then again the sheep is probably Shoarma by now!) I lived on Texel for about two years and there are some good roads amd some nice skydiving to be done there as well! Ciao Jasper PS That bike of yours is bijzonder hip!

Ciao Jasper PS That bike of yours is bijzonder hip! omg!!...same name ...both drive guzzis...lived on the same (small) island...scary stuff. I ran over a sheep once with a motorcross bike here on the island... the sheep just f*cked off <_ ..while my bike and me where going nowhere..> The roads here are just like the Assen track...fast smooth corners.. no speed cameras..

mille108 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Posted June 23, 2009 but in the end they nailed you! Yes after many many moons,they cought me..it was a big event for the local police. Unmarked Police car..... 170km in a 80km zone... big fine.. almost lost my licence for a long long time.. So nowdays im looking more in my mirror than on the road...
JohnO Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Your bike looks fantastic. Bike porn at its finest. I have a '96 Sport 1100 and want to remove the fairing. I prefer the naked look and also like round headlights. If anyone can tell me what I need to do this, and where to get the parts I would appreciate it. I know I need headlight brackets and a 7" round headlight. What size brackets? I will also need to move the gauges higher, so they need to be mounted on something. Thanks.

I will also need to move the gauges higher, so they need to be mounted on something. I've been considering the same. I think gauge mounts are trickier than the headlight. Centauro front stuff will fit but is not easy to source. Someone said the V11 headlight bracket and stuff will fit the Sporti forks too. When you're done you will need to fix the rear too...
mille108 Posted September 25, 2009 Author Posted September 25, 2009 Nice weather so preparing the old girl for a ride
peterguzzi Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 Man! Just as on Motor forum: my deepest respect for the build of this beauty
mille108 Posted February 6, 2010 Author Posted February 6, 2010 Thanks, Im in south america now enjoying the sunshine. The bike is stored on a heated floor in my house... because blank aluminium and moisture dont go well together.. When im back in europe we wil start on the subframe and swingarm.. all the material i allready have so its only a matter of designing and building the d#mn things...
Slavomir Musilek (R.I.P.) Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 thats very nice! Any link please? How do you open the tank?
mille108 Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 thats very nice! Any link please? How do you open the tank? Thanks The gas cap is a pop up one.. You push it in twist it and it pops out The gauge is this one.. Only the older type but the same functions MGL TP1
sharperdill Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Where did you get that headlight? Is it just a standard 130mm Benelli unit? Headlight and Acewell digital rpm/speedo..
