  1. Hello Guys, The virus of the V11 is under my skin so I have another question. When I'm looking for parts for my V11 I saw that they are very expensive in some cases or not deliverable anymore. But secondhand is OK in most cases, so the question is from what kind of Guzzis have the same: - engine block, crankcase , cilinders and piston - camshaft, cilinderhead - gearbox - transmission. An exempel is the speedometer unit in the gearbox. What other Guzzi has the same. I know the list of replace units from other brands on this forum, but I could not find a Guzzi comparison Futhermore are there possibilities to mount a big bore or a 4 valve ? Especially from a other Guzzi model? On my V65 I mounted a 4 valve Lario-head and it's running much better. But I can't find 1-2-3 something here in the forum, so I think this is much more difficult . Thanks
  2. Hi, Anyone have an idea if I can install V11 Sport engine into Daytona 1000? Anybody have done that before? Is the engine's mountings position the same? My old Daytona engine seems to be in dire needs of new parts - lots of them...been thinking might as well find an used engine. In the cafe racer building fever!
  3. Two weeks ago I started having issues with my 00 v11 sport. It would not start. My bike sits outside with a cover, we had a big rain and I figured there might be something wet. So I let it sit for a couple of nice hot dry days and voila, it fired up, with a bit of effort but it did. After that it would not fire up unless it was sitting in the sun for a while, so I figured maybe the humidity and cooler morning weather was creating some kind of short in a wire or something. So I would just wait and then ride. After a week the bike seemed to be normal again. I rode it a three days ago and in the middle of the ride it started bogging down, giving it gas would not accelerate and finally when I would hit the clutch it would die. Parked on the side of the road, waited 10 seconds or so and it would fire back up right away like nothing ever happened. This happened two days in a row, once per hour ride. We had another rain yesterday and it got a bit wet while it was outside when I was at a friends house. It has not been able to start since. The strange thing is: it turns over and I have the clutch in and cut off switch off so the basics are covered. The pump comes on. The battery is fully charged. I have new spark plugs. The K&N air filters have been cleaned and oiled recently, but I tried with these off and still nothing. The bike had a power commander but I took it off so it's back to standard and it did run while it was off. Bike riding friends and a couple bike shops (who don't want to touch guzzis) said it could be a wire shorting out or water in the fuel filter or the tank. Has anyone experienced this before? Suggestions from symptoms?
