This is an Immaculate Red 2004 Moto Guzzi V-11 LeMans. It truly does look brand new; there's not a mark on it. It has around 6500 miles and has always been kept under cover inside the garage. I never planned to sell it but "things happen" (lost job) so it's your gain. I will be happy to send any close-up pictures that you request. My philosophy regarding selling is that it's stupid to miss-represent something because the buyer will eventually see it; why waste their time and mine. This bike really is immaculate!! Following are the original manufacturer options or add-ons that the bike has: 1) a Power Commander III computer which allows precision dyno-tuning at virtually any good bike shop, 2) ThrottleMeister bar-ends that act as vibration-reducing weights and cruise control, 3) Moto Guzzi luggage rack that can be mounted on the rear, 4) Moto Guzzi shop stand that holds the bike vertical with the back wheel off the ground, 5) a nice fitted nylon cover (I always put a cotton sheet on before the nylon cover), 6) original tools and manual, 7) extra spark plugs, quality oil, etc.. 8) a brand new Metzler “dual-compound” rear tire that I haven’t gotten around to installing. I have moved to Pensacola Florida. The bike is in a car hauler trailer. It's under cotton sheets and away from the corrosive air here! You can call me at (704) 572-1511 with any questions. My email address is kkietzman@gmail.com. Again, I'll be happy to send more pictures if you want them. Take Care, Kim[/font]

Hi Ya'll, I just got a 2004 LeMans and am wondering if there's anything I can do to improve the sound of the factory mufflers. The bike only has a few thousand miles on it so I'd rather not layout a lot of money for new mufflers at this point if I don't have to. I don't need lighter ones and that seems to be the big selling points for after-market mufflers. I just want it to sound as good as it looks and performs! I'm quite handy if there's anything I can do to improve the sound of the originals, that would be my first choice and your suggestions would be very welcomed. Thanks a Lot, Kim

Dan & Tom, Thanks a Lot for the pointers. I added a chock to the front so the steep angle under the fairing held her in place. The pegs in the rear worked great. Can't wait for it to warm up so I can go for a ride but I'll be fine with polishing for quite a while. Thanks again, Kim

Hi Ya'll, --- I'm traveling cross-country to buy a 2004 LeMans this weekend and was hoping someone could tell me the best locations to attach tie-down straps. I'd like to put some anchor-points on my trailer before I leave. I plan to torque it down to compress the suspension a bit and don't want to do any damage before I even get it home. I really appreciate your help. --- Kim
