  1. I have installed the 54mm Tomaselli clipons on my 03 Lemans. Excellent quality, about 2-2.5 inches more rise, very adjustable for clearance with the fairing. Had to reposition the brake master res, used stock cables and brake lines. Make sure they are threaded to accept the OEM bar end weights. Much better on my neck and wrists. YMMV
  2. Out for a ride this morning, noticed some exhaust popping on decel, closed throttle. Found a crack close to the head on RH pipe. The bikes an 03 but after one too many go arounds with the front crossover I had the pipes welded shut a couple months back. Hmm. Wondering if someone might have a spare RH (or a set) lying about. TIA
  3. 32 in. across on mine. Congrats on new to you V11. What model is it?
  4. SEM Color Coat #15013 Landau Black Auto stores, flexible spray coating for vinyl, plastic, carpet etc. Two light coats, very nice result !
  5. This Sunday June 18 Waterfront Park, West Vancouver. Anyone local interested in flying the flag ?
  6. Do a search on the bullet-type electrical connectors under the fuel tank,possible cause. Rossa Corsas all dual platers AFAIK. Welcome!
  7. Not the content one hopes to see in this thread. Indeed a sad and scary pic. Hoping you are OK. Details please, when you feel up to it.
  8. As Thelonious said (pretty sure he was referring to Guzzis) "You gotta dig it to dig it, you dig?"
  9. Cafe Sport =04 longer frame + Ohlins
  10. Theres a lot to like there.... love the valve covers.

  12. Bummer...... Haven't used it before but heard Time-sert works well,much better than Heli -coils.
  13. The Guzzi racks are labled 3 kg. max. I have used a tail bag when packed 10-12 lbs.with no issues.
  14. Harpers has a couple online for the sport. Black or silver, 2 sizes.
  15. Installed reverse cone Misrtrals( sound pretty good) and freshly powder coated brackets/rails for Tekno bags. Bags sit 1/8 inch off the pipe Trying to think of a solution to raise the bags up at least an inch, maybe just ditch hangars on bags altogether, obviously fairly quick on-off is preferable. Anyone run into this before or got a suggestion? TIA
  16. Probably a little different up here. I've had collector plates on bikes and the only stipulation is the the machine cannot be ridden to or from work more than 15% of the time. Pleasure use is not limited. Requirements for "Vintage" plates are different,and I believe these are limited to travelling to displays/ events. Its (Collector) about 65-80% cheaper than the regular rates we pay to the government monopoly(ICBC). Not sure if it would be the same for Shaun in Ontario,but as Scud says the challenge is proving the build numbers for the year/model.
  17. Almost seems like the II's are even scarcer. The real II's, not the EPA emasculated CX-100's.
  18. With side extensions mabe you could utilize the MG service stand, and not require a chock.
  19. $$$ was a consideration when I was looking... I ended up with the Princess Auto one as well,(kind of the Great White North version of Harbour Freight) Once I installed a chock as per DonG, it does the job pretty well. Were $$$ not important the Handys seem to be the choice of most of the pros.
  20. Thanks for sharing this with us. Your strength is inspirational and puts things in perspective for me, and I'm sure others as well. Better days ahead!
  21. Testing out the Guzzi launch control?
