Kane Posted July 2, 2020 Posted July 2, 2020 The bike made me think of your bike, docc. How many silver V11s — with a Stucci flyscreen no less— can there be in Greensboro?

I kinda doubt that bike exists for sale. The kind of ad that smacks of fraud. I could be wrong. Lots of other reasons why it’s half price.... 1

Maybe it won't shift out of first and the starter won't engage. Throw the guy a grand and fix the clutch connectors and put in a Chuck-designed Scud Spring . . . .
po18guy Posted July 4, 2020 Posted July 4, 2020 Here's a local Washington State example (2004, 4000 miles) that I just noticed. Dunno what his reserve is, but we'll see. Which model came with 1/4 fairing, Marzocchi/Sachs and clipons? The Sport standard? 6 bidders and 49 watchers. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2004-Moto-Guzzi-V11-Sport/184347509167?hash=item2aebf7c1af:g:8fIAAOSwFbFe8jT-
gstallons Posted July 4, 2020 Posted July 4, 2020 I was joking .......about the purchase . This would be ( if it existed ) an in person deal , with the understanding you might be getting a parts bike . 1

The V11 Café Sport had Öhlins, a flyscreen, handlebars, and frame mounted headlamp/instruments (like the Ballabio) . This bike is rather a mix of features. There are, notably, no tail cowl graphics to help identification. It is, however, a nice example of both the bike and a legit ad. Tasteful mix of carbon fiber parts and meticulous presentation of images with appropriate asking price. I would love a broader view of what is wearing the white walls! 1

With the distributor gone in that area there is little to no support and even less knowledge about those bikes there. 2

I know nothing about this bike, but for the asking price I thought I’d mention it: https://www.cycletrader.com/listing/2000-Moto-Guzzi-V11-5012974616 Good luck! Not a lot of information in the CT ad, but from the photo is appears to have about 21k miles on the clock. Based on the various fading and corrosion one can see, it looks like it has been put away wet ... or maybe just lovingly ridden in all weather It's only 60 miles from me, so tempting, but I don't need another project. 1
po18guy Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 Ewan is only 49? He had the "old man" pegs installed! Lightweight! I got 19 years on him and I'm looking for rearsets! 1
Kane Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 I don’t know the seller, but here’s a Breva 750 parts bike in SoCal in case anyone needs it: https://losangeles.craigslist.org/lac/mpo/d/gardena-2004-moto-guzzi/7159529025.html
