  1. I have been wanting in install a center stand on my 2000 V11 sport,these stands are rare as hen's teeth. I came across a stand from a Lemans 3, and was wondering if this could be adapted to fix,(this might be a really dumb idea). Looks like the Lemans 3 tire is only 110,where as the V11 is 170, so this in it self might make it impossible. Any input would be appreciated.
  2. I can certainly understand how something like this can get out of hand. When you build a better mouse trap the world will beat a path to your door. Hopeful some time down the road there will be a second batch.
  3. Any chance of a second run on these? As usual I'm a day late and a dollar short. Truly an amazing project, outstanding effort!
  4. Foot goose,Thanks for the info on Emgo mirrors, they look exactly like the FAR mirrors that Guzzi used. Desdinova, the Buell mirrors that you used,are they the one's from their 1125R with the built in turn Signals? Any chance you could post a picture of your setup?
  5. I am looking to see what mirrors will fit,and look right on the V11 lemans fairing. The original mirrors are hard to come by, so I'm hoping to get some idea's on alternatives that other folks have mounted. If you can post any photos of your mirrors, that would be a big help. Thanks!
  6. WOW, Thank you everyone for your input. I appreciate knowing the different ways folks tackle the task of brake fluid replacement. On a couple of my old /6 BMW's I've had the master cylinders freeze up from just sitting, be it Guzzi or BMW, none of these parts are cheap (when comparing to auto parts) so I'm trying to do a better job of doing regular fluid changes. Phil, thanks for the info on the fluid tester, and yet another tool I didn't know that I needed. Great approach to knowing the condition of the fluid, rather then guessing. I will look into getting one. Love this form ,a real wealth of knowledge!
  7. I came across these ,and wondered if anyone has used them,they seem like a great idea. I guess they have been around for a while, but I hadn't heard of them till yesterday. Think I'll give them a try, but I was wondering if anyone else has had any luck with them. Thanks for any input.
  8. Part Found! Thanks to Maxv11 for his help on this!
  9. Hello Stewgnu, thanks for getting back to me. I just found one two days ago. Turns out the guy that Max sold the speedometer to was the same guy that I bought my bike from on E-bay. Really great guy ,Bobby,lives in Oklahoma City,so he's helping me out. Small world!
  10. Hi stewgnu, any chance you have the speedometer/tachometer, mounting plate for the Ballabio, I'm trying to hunt one down.
  11. I'm in the process of mounting a Ballabio fairing on my 2000 sport and I'm missing the plate that the speedometer and tachometer mount into, item 12 in this parts breakdown, anyone have an extra they can sell? Looks like Guzzi p/n GU01764080. (Sorry for the different size fonts)
  12. Forgot to mention that it's listed on "Craig list", which all you Guzzi hunters probably already figured out.
  13. This one's been listed in Florida, a little over two weeks ago, 18k miles, looks really clean. Moto Guzzi Centauro 1998 - $5500 (Bradenton). Not sure what makes it a "sport"
  14. Can you please send me a photo of the wind screen, will you also include the mounting bracket, My e mail is vdickin@bellsouth.net Thank you
  15. Hello Blaine, Guess for $20 I'd be worth having in my tool box, and hopefully never needing it. If I may ask,why'd you sell your v11,looks like it was a Lemans,love the fairing. I'll PayPal you the $20 Thanks,Vic
  16. Does this include the tank mounting ring. I'd like to install it on my 2000 V11 sport. If so I would like to buy it from you. I can PayPal you the funds. My email is vdickin@bellsouth.net. I live in Jupiter,Florida, zip is 33478. Thank You!
  17. Beautiful bike! I could use the rear rack if you decide to sell the accessories separately. Thanks
  18. I'm new to the Guzzi V11 sport, bought a 2000 V11 about 3 months ago. Love the bike, but wanted to change a few things to better suit the way I like to ride. I'm in the process of converting from the clip-on's bars to regular bars and risers. Also with all the bug's we have in south Florida, I'd really like a fairing for better protection. I live in Jupiter,Florida the zip is 33478. Would you know about how much the shipping would be. This is a big item to box and ship,so I'm just trying to figure out what the final cost will be for your fairing. Love this form,I've learned a lot from it, its been a big help in my bar project. Thank you for your help
  19. Hello,just came across your listing. Is the fairing still available? My email is "vdickin@ bellsouth.net " THANK YOU, Vic Dickinson
  20. These kits are hard to come by, I'd love to get one for my 2000 V11 sport, but can't find one. There's a guy on Ebay that makes a really nice rear break lever ,and I emailed him to see if he might be interested in building this kit. He doesn't own the V11 so he doesn't have the dimensions to build one. If the drawings were available I think he might be able to build them. Seems to me from this form that there is a strong interest in people wanting a kit like this. Picture is the lever that he sells. From my emails with him I would agree, if we could get him the drawings for this kit we might be able to persuade him to make a batch, seems like a lot of folks, including me ,want a set of these. Should be a win win. Maybe with enough interest we can make it happen.

  22. I'm new to this party,love your form. Finally got my hands on a beautiful 2000 v11 sport. Love the bike ,but setting it up to better suit my riding style. I guess it's going to be near impossible to find one of these beautiful kits. Is someone still building them? Even if the drawings were available it would help in building a set. Any input would be appreciated.
