  1. Today
  2. Ha ha I'm just about to replace mine this week hopefully. The current Pirelli Angel GT 2's have 18,500 kays on them and still handle ok..... My last ride to the office was cold and very very wet and still no slips slides etc and my ride home on the fun twisty bits were also wet and still no moments but I reckon they'll go downhill quickly from here! Bloody phenomenal really and will look to put another pair of these on! Cheers Ps I also run a 160/60 on the rear
  3. So, yes, Tenni had a black seat (like all other V11), but were delivered with a brown (faux suede) seat. I would consider it a good sign the brown seat has stayed with the bike.
  4. That might explain the black seat. Look at the photos here. The site is not 100% reliable, but when the included photos are of the right bike, they are apparently mostly catalogue photos. The ones in this article confirm what I thought, i.e. that the Tenni should have a brown seat. https://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/model/moto guzzi/moto_guzzi_v11_le_mans_tenni 02.htm EDIT: I see in the ad that the original brown seat is included. I wonder what condition it is in...
  5. Neither am I. As far as I know, the longevity is in a direct relationship to the compound, not the tyre size.
  6. Thanks for that one! I wondered why those graphics but I understand now. Art
  7. don't love the design myself either, but this is the reasoning for it:
  8. I certainly do: 160/60. Not sure about the 160/70 on the short frame Sports. Pretty sure I've never heard of 130 on the front of a V11. Plus I'm really not convinced a bigger tire will automatically provide more longevity. (Just a reminder that all LongFrame V11, 2002-on, have a 5.5" rear rim that were delivered with a 180 while many find a 170 nicely suited to the larger rim.)
  9. I noticed that 170 size tires have just about dried up. You guys seem to like 160 on the red frames?
  10. I wonder why they did not make it completely Tenni green? I think it would have gotten more appeal; at least more appeal to me! When I look at the close-up pics, I get the feeling this bike may have spent time under the weather. You see the chromed rings around the instruments? they seem pitted. 8k is reasonable for a limited production bike. Maybe a tad overpriced for a market where Tenni does not immediately ring a bell.
  11. As most of my riding is freeway, I'm looking for higher mileage tires. I'm a huge fan of Kenda, such value. I purchased these and am now wondering if fitting these may not work. Even if they fit the rim proper, will they clear the fenders. Shall I give 'em a go, or swap for Kenda KM1 models? https://powersports.kendatire.com/en-us/find-a-tire/
  12. #135. 10,600 miles. looks clean, fully serviced. down in Florida, Daytona Beach... https://www.cycletrader.com/listing/2002-Moto+Guzzi-V11-5031402917
  13. I agree…and just being there and seeing them live is well worth it. Every live version with its mistakes and innovation is memorable. I wish I had seen them more often…but it didnt happen in the past. Opening song…Start me Up!! When you get 70,000 people all singing and enjoying the vibe…it’s a good feeling!
  14. Wow. Love how they turned out. I'm partial to this green and they did a great representation of it. It will perfectly cover the HD logo on one of my jackets. Thank you again sir.
  15. Yesterday
  16. My hematologist explained to me that the USA subsidizes most drugs for the test of the world. We also develop the most.The "Crusty Senior" medical plan limits insulin to $35 copay. I use about one pen yearly. Celcene corporation comped my 1 million+ in an experimental drug and paid for all scanning and other coasts, during a clinical trial and long term study of a then-experimental drug. So, I am ambivalent about the entire situation. However, when I see the federal billions in waste that "might" be used for retiree health care, I need something stronger than Tylenol... PATCHES! Now to find a new jacket to sew them on!
