Thank you so much for your help $200 bucks sound cheap for a new headlight. I'd grab it at that price. Phil
arveno Posted January 2 Author Posted January 2 I don’t have one . the bike is a cafe sport and I am adding the Le Mans fairing and the headlights that is currently on the bike is not the stock one .

Oh. That is a rather big flaw as headlights go. Since they are now rare Italian works of art, I suppose that 2 bills is not all that bad.

It doesn’t mean they will have it for sure . chances are it might not be available anymore. Only after placing the order, they will find out …..

Only after placing the order, they will find out ….. Pretty common these days for Guzzi's of this vintage. Even cycle parts like Brembo callipers are advertised on websites and I know they haven't been available from suppliers for years. If you get a refund in full without transactional losses it's ok but I've been nailed with losses on the refund that's why I ask them to confirm with their suppliers that they have stock before I order and pay. The V11 is now getting to the point spares wise where it's not really the bike to put a lot of miles on anymore. New part supplies have dried up and SH parts can be risky to buy and are getting expensive. Phil 4
PJPR01 Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Arveno…Possibly try Stein Dinse as well…they have a replacement for my 2002Scura so they may have something for your 2004 Lemans…always worth giving them a call… Good luck!! 1
guzzler Posted January 14 Posted January 14 I thought I heard something about Ducati Monsters using the same headlight some time ago..... Not 100% sure though. Maybe check that out? Cheers 1
