fastaussie Posted March 28 Posted March 28 (edited) throwing out some feelers to see if anyone has my preferred set of exhaust mufflers for a 2002 V11 Le Mans. anyone got a set of these for sale? in excellent condition of course, whether new or used. i assume the matching ECU is necessary also, and i'd love to have that as well if so. looking for them at a normal or slightly upsweft angle as shown in the following images. thanks heaps gentlemen... p.s. to only be paid for with PayPal 'goods and services" of course, so don't bother to contact me with any scam attempts. p.s.s. is there some leeway with adjusting the angle of the mufflers? i see three distinct angles below. middle position looks best to me.

The ecu isn't necessary it will run fine on the std ecu mapping so don't pay for that. The last 2 images are the same setup with the high mount pillion pegs and adaptors. The images are taken at different angles and makes it deceptive. Phil Edited March 28 by Lucky Phil 2
fastaussie Posted March 28 Author Posted March 28 thanks heaps @Lucky Phil, i appreciate the knowledge. i missed the different passenger pegs. is there a different finish on the pipes also, or is that just lighting?

Just the golden colour they eventually go to after use. I have some pillion high mounts I think I can sell you if you need them. Phil 1
fastaussie Posted March 28 Author Posted March 28 thanks mate, i'll let you know if i require them @Lucky Phil. different mid-pipes required, or the mufflers have some flexibility in the angling?

activpop Posted March 30 Posted March 30 (edited) I've got those Ti cans on my Coppa. They are called racing mufflers and seem to be the quietest pipes of all my bikes. Why is that? On my Ducatis I had Contis and they were truly a racing muffler with straight thru flow and limited baffles. What's the story with these? I always wondered what a Guzzi would sound like with Contis on it. Edited March 30 by activpop 2
Lucky Phil Posted March 30 Posted March 30 The first point is the Ti mufflers have large volume and the crossover style makes a difference. Contis were the original Ducati Supersport performance mufflers. They had a louvered inner straight pipe and no packing material. They would sound like a Ducati on your Guzzi but with a softer sound (less sharp crack) due to the softer cam timing of a BB Guzzi compared to the Desmo cams. 4
Pressureangle Posted March 31 Posted March 31 One of the most beautiful things I've ever heard was some sort of loop frame Guzzi with a hotrod engine and Conti mufflers. Reno, NV circa 1980. 2

I can remember one of the first moments that I started getting interested in Moto Guzzi. It happened here. https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/2382203#map=16/-37.72292/145.04858 I was walking from the sports fields back to the uni, about where the La Trobe Sports Stadium is, and saw and heard a Guzzi going along Kingsbury Drive towards Plenty Road. It was probably an early Le Mans, that was in about 1985, and quite possibly had the "competizione" Lafranconis on it. The sound... Edited March 31 by audiomick 2
Tomchri Posted March 31 Posted March 31 New Titaniums on. Shoud I put them back in the original box from Guzzi and? No, what the hell, be nice to hear her going, SOON. Frost at night and and icredible amount of dust. No more than ever, those Black and Decker cars have no idea about swalling dust. Cheers Tom. Sent fra min SM-S906B via Tapatalk 4
