  2. Just like it says.I'm looking for a service manual for a 2004 v111 lemans. If you have one to spare I want it. let me know what you want for it.Thanks Mike 440 623 3356
  3. I have two of them coming from Harpers. I hope to have them by the weekend.I was told when I bought the bike I would have to be able to use my tool box! Scud sent me a link.Any other input on this job?
  4. Scud, it seems all I do is thank you. It looks like a pretty straight forward job. Now I gotta find/get the spring!
  5. Hi,so with the help of some very cool people here on the forum I did get the part I needed.Only problem is there is a bigger problem.After installing the shift lever I find out it wont shift!! I'm guessing its the return spring.I understand that this is a weak spot.I cant find here on the forum on what must be done to change the spring.If that is not the problem I would guess it's a real tranny issue. I starting to wonder what I got myself in for. My first post on here was about buying my first MG. A little more detail on that. It's the second one I paid for!! The first was a scam on oddle. This happened this spring. The Lemans was at Port Galvenson Texas.The whole thing was a very well put together SCAM. I'm out 3800.00! The FBI is trying to catch the bad guys.I'm out the 3800.00 though. So lets recap.Buy a Guzzi get ripped out of 3800. OK life happens,I put that behind me. Buy a beauty of MG here on the forum. Drive it home,it runs great! I'm soooo happy. Ride back and forth to work a few times.The little shifter thing goes south.OK, I get with the Guzzi dealer.He tells me a 20 dollar part cost 140.00 and I can't have it. OK I get the part.put it on and now it's a 8 dollar spring!! Comon!! Anyone in the market for a beautiful Lemans? It sounds great!! Just dont ride it.LOL
  6. The local MG dealer just called to tell me my order will not work.The part is on back order in the USA! Just thought I would let everyone know. This sucks!!
  7. Ok.Ill post more pictures. Tom M said he got 12k out of his shifter.My bike has 12 on it now. The P.O. said that all the after market on the bike was on it before he bought it in 2006 with 2000 miles on it. I would guess the shifter was put on just after the first owner bought it. I have the stock shifter and pegs. The after market a good 1.5 to 2 inches away from the bike. With my size 14 shoe I think I'm going to leave the after market on it.I'm going to have the part in question made out of billet I think.
  8. I'm looking for the bolt that goes from the spline to the the shifter.Mine broke.It's pot metal.I'd buy yours or if you can tell me where I can get one ASAP that would be great. Thanks Shiny Mike 440 623 3356. [ edit: I ordered it from the dealer.Hold on to your hats! 134.00 plus tax = 140.40 out the door! ]
  9. OK. My car my 17 year son drives is 2004 Grand Prix GT,My collage girl has a 2007 PT cruiser.I bought it but it her car.My driver is a 2010 Ford Escape fwd STICK SHIFT! My toy car is a 1978 black Grand Marquise with 42000 miles on it.Pretty nice car! Then there is this. My wifes 2011 KIA Sportage. I dont like it in my drive way! I hate JAP cars.Un American or something.I dont know. The kia will be gone by fall. Yea yea I know there built here.
