  1. Funny I had to ask you..lol..Corbin Factory is about 70 miles from my house and I have ridden over there a few times to have them build seats for me, they have a ride up service...Mike Corbin is an awesome guy as well.. Looks great on your bike!!
  2. Great looking Motorcycle..What kind of seat is that?
  3. I don,t have any good pictures of My R.Corsa with the DyMag Magnesium wheels on her at the moment but this is one of her from a couple years ago when she was a little dusty ..still looks the same except cleaner and with the oem rear fender back on now.
  4. No..Although in the 60's when I was around 15 yrs Carlos and his brother did live at the end of my block and I would see them..but no..not hang out..:-)
  5. Just a couple local San Francisco guys from my younger days playin a little music
  6. I think all of us here feel the same way!
  7. Thanks.. The Magni system has grown on me.. When I looked back on the 17 years documented history of this bike with him as owner I saw that the original owner of this bike spent a great deal of time over the years trying different things ,tuning and tweeking this bike and the intake and exhaust system on a dyno to get it just right..and the thing runs very well ..so I'll not fuss with it..I admit was up in the air about whether they would stay at first, but when I look at them in the context of the Magni styles I do like them now. As far as the black drawing attention to the center of the bike... thats how myself prefer to see these bikes.. I like the rest to kind of disappear in the photo .. for myself the motor and tank is what appeals to me most about a V-11! Cheers!!
  8. The fires are impacting me and my family heavily..the smoke is awful and I have asthma..so cant open the windows or go outside..plus its been 90 degree's almost every day. The photo was taken on Treasure Island in San Francisco...the fake money was already laying there on the ground from someone else. Glad you are happy with the Mistrals!!
  9. I did one last year..All of my life I have heard I'm French/Canadian which surprised me because my last name sounds Irish..but I had read some French people have my last name...None of my Family other than myself and a cousin seemed too interested one way or another. So as a result of a Birthday gift from my wife, I Did the DNA tests..and sure enough..I'm about 92 percent Irish with a dash of Welsh on top....My best riding buddy ( Who I've ridden with for 40 years and is 100% Irish thru and thru ) commented " Well that explains a lot!" Referring to my great love for Guinness and Irish Whiskey...(It was a bit odd for a Frenchman I'd guess). Anyway good and bad but now I have more excuses to drink the Irish..Its in my Genes!! I cant help myself!!
  10. It opens all the way on my bike , but you may have to pull the rubber boot part of the nozzle back to fill..I always do it that way anyway because I like to see the fuel height while filling it..so that aspect doesn't bother me cheers
  11. I put the link to the one you need in the first post on this thread..it tells you the part number and all the models this one fits..doubt anyone would have one in stock..but AF! can get you one in about a week, they are good at shipping and ordering. If you tell em or any other dealer that it's for a Guzzi they wont have a clue as the manufacturer doesn't even realize its the same as these Aprilias https://www.af1racing.com/store/Scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=94017&sku=TW-TRT.00.640.17500.B&description=SW+Motech+Quick+Lock+Gas+Cap+Tank+Ring
  12. I would think that one thing you could do is take the screws that they send you which go in through the inside of the bag to attach the other half of the mount to the underside of the bag ,to the hardware store and get some screws which are that thread but a little longer to accomodate placing a matching spacer/shim of some sort the between the bag and the underside mount, rather than raising the tank ring off the tank raise the bag whatever gap needed ( probably not much..to ease the pressure off the chin pad?? . Just a thought.
  13. Sure...Pic of the ring..they are fairly un obtrusive, and Pics of Sport Bag and Daypack bag..they also make larger ones..I like them because they do not touch the paint and they are very secure...not sliding all over the place..easy quick release of your bag on and off when you want to add fuel. .
  14. I have one on my Rosso Corsa Lemans...Having owned a lot of Aprilias I recognized the cap . Order the tank ring for a 2002-2005 Aprilia Tuono...same exact thing..went right on in 10 minutes..Got it from AF! racing https://www.af1racing.com/store/Scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=94017&sku=TW-TRT.00.640.17500.B&description=SW+Motech+Quick+Lock+Gas+Cap+Tank+Ring I have the Quick lock " Evo Daypack" and the Quick lock "Evo SPORT" tank bags got them from Revzilla Love them
  15. Thanks.. I decided to just order new stuff rotor, caliper, pads from AF1.. Ive bought a truckload of Aprila stuff there. Cheers!
  16. The spools on the rear are fixed.. I rode it home 50 miles.. I rarely use the rear brake anyway.. when I fix it it’ll be right. Thanks!
