[Finally Bit The Bullet and Purchased A Lift]

$$$ 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.

[Enjoy life while you can.]

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!

[What did you do to your V11 today?]

Testing out the Guzzi launch control?

[What [music] do you listen to? Share your favs]

Pretty sure Derek is Butchs nephew.

[Original battery?]

I was "shocked "......  to see it too

 

think its earned a good long rest 

[looking to purchase 2002 V11 LeMans]

Not too many bone stock V11s....

 

Any added accessories?

[Original battery?]

I know,right

Pretty amazing though.

 

I dont remember ever getting more than 6-7 years  tops out of the Yuasas I generally run.

[Original battery?]

Finally getting a chance to to go thru the 03 Lemans I bought in October.

Got the battery out to have a look,its a Spark 500 with a  on the label and a stamp of 09/02.

Bikes always started good for me,units on the Tender now.

[Faded Techno bags]

Just wondering what products/techniques folks have used to refresh the Tekno bags.

 

Thanks.

[Right side Left side]

Right!

If you switch sides weep/drainhole will not be on the bottom of the T/S lens.

[Bar Risers V11 LeMans]

I have the adjustable 54mm Tomaselli clipons  from MG Cycle,very nice.

Half the price of the MPH bar risers.

[M4 mufflers]

Seems to still be a few  Mistral choices from MG, as well as MIVVs if you dont mind the style of those.

[One year shy of 60?]

Couldnt help but notice some of the birthdays being celebrated today.

Only a machine as beautiful and charismatic as a V11 could have devoted owners from 13 to 110 .

Many happy returns

[Intermittent no start.]

Also likely culprits are the two bullet connectors residing under the fuel tank.

Take apart ,clean up,solved similar issue on mine.

[Bags Wanted]

Looking for H/B frames and/or bags.....or would definitely consider a set of Teknos.

Thanks

[Lucky Phil extender mod]

[Fantasy time]

[Introduction Thread]

Docc,in the Great White North its Imperial gallons(litres) and kilometers  and poutine,back bacon and maple syrup.

Of course around Vancouver its more like sushi,yoga and B.C. bud.

But we like our Guzzis.

[Introduction Thread]

Cyborg,did you get the red frame tractor in Squamish I saw on CL?

[Gone Guzzi]

Thanks doc,that was my fear as well.Is there any realistic remedy for this sickness or will it worsen?Other than this rather glaring flaw the bike is nice,but now I am thinking of taking a pass.

[Gone Guzzi]

[Gone Guzzi]
