cash1000 63 Posted Monday at 01:59 AM Report Share Posted Monday at 01:59 AM Speedo finally died. Happened 10ks after leaving home on trip to Dunedin weekend before last It had been swinging wildly for a while so it was no surprise. Solution seems to be replace with new from Speedhut or get repalred. There is company called Parrots here in Christchurch that I know have repaired another V11 speedo with same problem. Can you get the parts to repair them yourself? I’ve found the video on youtube which gives some idea of what’s involved Motoguzzi V11 Sport Rosso Mandello 2001 Overhaul of speedometer and tachometer - YouTube Thoughts? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
docc 3,506 Posted Monday at 02:16 AM Report Share Posted Monday at 02:16 AM Did the fellow in the video only clean and lubricate it? No parts required? How many kilometers has yours gone, @cash1000? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cash1000 63 Posted Monday at 03:46 AM Author Report Share Posted Monday at 03:46 AM I've just replaced speedo cable & run with & without angle drives & speedo still misbehaving (Posted a couple of weeks ago) But to eliminate possibility will disconnect speedo from speedo cable and run bike. If cable still turns its the speedo? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cash1000 63 Posted Tuesday at 03:29 AM Author Report Share Posted Tuesday at 03:29 AM Done that. Its the Angle Drive that's broken. It didn't appear to be a month ago when I fitted new speedo cable. Must have been in process of failing Many thanks Doc for pointing me in right direction. Also found out I was fitting speedo cable the wrong way around Stumbled across fitting instructions when looking for new angle drive Moto Guzzi Angle Drive Replacement v11 SP 04768300-tlm gu04768300 gu047683 04 | eBay Yet to refit cable so fingers crossed it will solve speedo - tomorrow nights job 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
