The first time you go from 1st to 2nd you will not regret what you have done. Mine is homemade and my linkage just clears the frame . It is difficult to find N but all the other gears are just a click away. I installed a new linkage rod w/one rod end that has l.h. threads . I can set the shift lever to any place I want w/just a couple of turns and I am happy.

The Stelvio is at the AIM Expo 2024 (the Xcape too) The price of the motorcycles is insane! we are close to 20k now!

Time to part ways with this fantastic motorcycle. I'm just too into the ADV scene and want another lightweight DS option in the garage. Here's the rundown: #603 with just over 24k miles on the clock. I believe I'm the third owner. Purchased from an L.A. area owner in 2014 w/ the following: - Receipts from Moto Guzzi Classics, and Motoservizio in Signal Hill, CA as well as Evoluzione Cyclesports in Simi Valley. - High compression pistons w/ related gaskets, Stucchi crossover, Mistral Ti cans, fuel pressure modifier kit (fuel injected Ducati p/n 90200_00), PC III. - Carbon rear fender, black color matched tail section, CRG mirrors. I've done the following: - Roper plate, Scud spring, Lucky Phil shift link extender, adjusted the shift mechanism and it's glorious. Shifts are precise now and buttery smooth. Many thanks to the forum. - Ghezzi-Brian CF belly pan, re-upholstered rear seat and seat pad. Black head guards. Plugs and wires immediately after purchase. - Lightened the Ohlins fork springs from 1.05 to .95, Rizoma clutch and brake reservoirs, GRG levers, new grips, Li-ion battery w/ tender. - Sorted what I felt was a "thin" clutch throw / engagement with some thorough clutch bleeding and the issue has been rectified. Nice "long", controllable engagement range. No leaks, no peeling motor paint. Some chipping on the porkchops, but no scratches of scuffs on the body work. Sticker on the tank is covering the area where the Nanny State sticker were and the area below the OEM decals is visually different than the rest of the tank. Veglia tach needle is a little faded and dances a bit on throttle blips and shifts, but doesn't swing wildly. Fires easily, runs very well, no leaks, and always puts a smile on my face when I ride it. All shop work performed on this bike by EDR Performance in Beaverton, OR. Bike will sell with clutch and brake fluid flush along with fork service and new fork seals (complete 2/18/24). Final drive was recently serviced, O&F are fresh. Diablo Corsas have <250 mi on them. I'll go back and review all my receipts to see if there's anything I've omitted. Owners and service manuals, original tool kit. Additional set of the black OEM silencers, too. Additional pics or answers to your questions. Just DM me. Would like to see her go to an enthusiast.

You might want to look at the year model in the heading. Phil

2-2000... solid flanges. Thanks...

I can't remember how easy the injector connector is to reach but I will try this today (provided I have my noid lights here and not at work) to verify this. Leave it to MG to do something like this ?

This would be really interesting to confirm. When new, mySport would dribble fuel from the bottom of the throttle body shafts. Guzzi authorized a warranty replacement of the entire throttle body rack including the injectors and TPS. Once installed (another story), my dealer told me that if I pressurized the system (turned the bike on and off) or started and ran it briefly, it would still drip. and they did do. Of course, early on, I was starting the bike bike up ALL THE TIME just to hear it or show it off!

Hmmmm. I will have to hook up a noid light to the injector harness and see what happens

By fuel pump switch I assume you mean the "kill switch"? I always pull the fuel pump fuse to eliminate the shot of fuel that goes down the intake ports every time you cycle the ignition switch. Phil

As far as that goes, I read something to the same effect in the German forum. It was regarding a Nevada 750, and I had problems connecting the Breva 750 (same motor and ECU...). The problem was, I could connect to the Breva following the Guzzidiag prompts for "ignition on" etc., but when I started the motor, the connection broke off. Following reading the suggestion to start the motor first, I thought about it a bit, and decided to try "start motor" at the point where Guzzidiag says "ignition on". That worked. That means: connect everything up. Start Guzzidiag. Select "connect" ("verbinden") from the menu. You get a pop-up that says "turn on ignition" or something to that effect. Rather than just turning on the ignition at that point, start the motor and then click on "OK". That worked with the Breva. I expect fully that it would work with a V11 that has the same problem (connection breaks off when the motor is started), but can't check that because the connection with my V11 works without any problems. And if this problem shows up, and this solution works, spare a thought as to why the voltage drops during starting enough to break the connection. I haven't sorted that with the Breva yet, but I reckon there is something fishy there...

Very interesting bike! Nicely done, Sir! I am curious about the wheelbase and fork rake of the Centauro frame (?) BTW, you can create an Album in Member Galleries to share more pics of your bikes without the resizing issue . .

Well, reducing photo size is nearly as much fun as rebuilding gearboxes😂 Heres my baby, hope image quality hasn’t suffered too much!

The V7 Corsa and the Mandello S are both feeling a little sporty... And we're all wordering if a new LeMans is in the future. I dropped in to GP Motorcycles yesterday. They have a V100 in all red. It's striking...

Did anybody notice the new tangential spokes on tubeless rims?

I just spent the prior evening reading/re-reading all 56 pages of this thread, and although it has been said many times; Scud and Chuck deserve a huge "thank you" for all the hard work and perseverance to see this project through to the end. So now with a few years in production, and it looks like at least 10s of thousands of miles of real-world use, it appears that we haven't heard of any of the improved springs failing?
