  1. **edit** this "news" was previously noted in another thread as noted below FWIW, here is an article from VisorDown that includes a low res and altered image of what is believed to be a future Moto Guzzi model It looks like it might be a sport bike https://www.visordown.com/news/new-bikes/moto-guzzi-teases-new-centenary-edition-motorcycle Cheers, Bob
  2. I've got the smaller model of Formotion and it has held on for years on the triple clamp with double-sided tape believe it or not. The batteries do not last long BTW - about a year in my experience. Very useful addition.
  3. Looks pretty good to me. I'd put some epoxy paint on floor, add lights and concentrate on re-building and re-mounting those doors (retain orig design).
  4. I hope they do create a new Le Mans - with a bit (5-10?) more horsepower but still air cooled
  5. Mine has always clicked up and down in its bracket too (but I never use it)
  6. I searched on Google for 'Guzzi leather key' and found many options to choose from.....
  7. I installed one of these on my 2001 Sport, has worked well. I would say this is quite a rare part at this point in time. Not very heavy either.
  8. Simple things first - pls check your battery connections (one might be loose and vibrate at a certain frequency)

  11. Thanks, I've often wondered exactly what that part is for.....
  12. Docc - I do not know if they stock parts....
  13. Docc - padajohn said he was seeking "service/parts" in his initial post
  14. Optimum Performance Motorsports is a MG dealer in Kirkland/Totem Lake (the "eastside" of Seattle). Here is a link Cheers, Bob
  15. I love that tip- thanks voycie. I have a full size Passat wagon that this advice applies. I spend my money on bikes, not cars.
  16. I put HyperPro on rear of my Sport and substituted Aprilia Mille shocks for the front end - handles like a dream. There a little wiggle on hard acceleration from the rear but I like it.
  17. My tailbag of this type was just stolen.... Do you have a black Moto Guzzi expandable tailbag for sale? This is the one with 2 zippers and the Guzzi logo that fits on the Moto Guzzi aluminum rear luggage rack using bottom straps. Thank you, Bob
  18. I am same size as you Kane and also have a Sport (orig. owner). I have taken several 1000 mile trips and would say it has been very nice though I did upgrade the padding on my seat (added small gel layer) after one of the trips. I only go about 300 miles per day. I use small removable soft bags and the factory rack plus factory tailbag. Now I have an Africa Twin and tend to use that for additional route flexibility on long multi-overnight trips.
  19. I ride a red frame with a 150 rear and feel it has a pretty quick turn in. I have the rossopuro cardan bar FWIW.
  20. So cheap - would not part with my V11 for that $ amount!
  21. Looks good in white. That is quite a large rear tire, I like the quick turn-in of a 150 on my 2001 V11 Sport FWIW.
