Thanks Scud,
Payment sent for 2 springs !!

Hi Guys, I know I'm late to the party on this one, but I'd be in for two springs if they become available. As far as I know, my 2003 LeMans still has the original... I would like to replace before the inevitable happens, and would like to have a spare as well.
Looking over this thread I can appreciate all the work that's gone into this, thank you !

Received mine last week -- Thank you again for your good work !!

I'm in for one !!

I saw these while surfing the web for V11 luggage. Are these an older style Cortech ? I don't see ones like this from them now. I thought they looked good and functional too --

MGrego, with the MPH risers I find that there is less pressure on the wrists especially riding at slower speeds (city riding).
Also which is obvious, your not bent over as much. Definitely more comfortable than the stock setup.
I'm going to look into those -- I took a nice tour through the Ozarks this past weekend with lots of twists and turns throught the mountains -- my shoulders and palms are quite sore from all the pressure on them !

Bought this one on Ebay this weekend and it came with the MG Tail bag. Can't say I love the tail bag as I think there is better quality from third party makers like cortech, etc. but the build quality, fit and finish of the rack itself is amazing.
Regarding the tail bag you don't love, if you wanted to sell it I might be interested --

Looks great !
I like the "custom" hardbags, never seen another V11 with ones like that --
How do you find the MPH bar risers ? I was thinking of doing that to my V11 lemans...

Two plates received this past weekend !
Here is one about to go on my friend's Sport (no trouble installing), my LeMans is soon to follow --
Thanks again to Tim and Pete !! Two more V11's upgraded !!

100% of the problem was the Stucci xover. It is not built properly. Up against the stocker and the FBF it was obvious. The left side of it was welded on about 10mm to the rear of the right side, causing the left can to stick out further from the hanger mount point, and farther rearward, and throw out the center frame hanger alignment. I cut 10mm off the left rear to even it out. That, and some shifting on the head pipes, got me within 5/8" of the left can hanger strap being perfect. Since the symmetry was now acceptable, I used a 5/8" spacer at the back of the strap, and all is looking good. I mean looking reeeeeally good. And the sound is glorious.
I had the exact same experience recently installing the Stucci crossover. Wound up cutting off about an inch of the real left to get the muffler hanger to line up -- this after trying it on and off about a dozen times...

I recently found an unused Stucchi crossover on e-bay, I combined the crossover with some exhaust headers from an '01 sport. This allowed me to delete the sagging forward crossover on my '03. I think it looks better too. I had to cut about an inch off one side of the crossover to get the muffler to line back up into the right position. It's heavy gauge metal !

Thank you for keeping us updated --

I'm in for two plates --
One for my '03 LeMans, and one for a friend's '01 Sport.
These would be sent to Missouri.
