Have you inquired about pricing? Price range from $30 to $100 on that Alibaba link you provided, probably depending on amount of units ordered. MDI sells them for 70 bucks a pop right now out of SoCal with a phone # and email you can reach them at. Unless it’s significantly cheaper, I would think twice about ordering from overseas...

Got a little package in the mail today... Beauties!! A million thanks to @Chuck and his S&H crew for all their hard work and @Lucky Phil for all his ingenuity..

Without any intention of hijacking this thread and turning it into a relay one, I will just say that I spent a lot of time researching suitable relays alternative for the v11 and I would be wary of any relays offering on ebay coming out of China... The ebay vendor I got the Omrons from back in December is still offering them, albeit at twice the price I paid for them.. I think they've learned the value of what they're sitting on.. https://www.ebay.com/itm/162517009426 Aside from the CIT's @docc posted above, here are a few more alternatives I found: (Disclaimer: Even though I haven't tried these, all specs suggest they would be a good alternative for the V11) https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/picker-components/PC782-1C-12S-R-X/12352866 https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/panasonic-electric-works/CM1-12V/647128

Just my personal observation after miss Curiosity pushed me to check that listing.. I know, I know, curiosity killed the cat

I highly doubt the relays on that listing are the real thing, made in US Omrons that is. Omron label is obscured in picture and no mention of it in description either. In fact it states "unbranded" in "Item specifics"..

Definitely not a frame mount front fairing. Photo #8 in the CT listing clearly shows the fork mounted headlight brackets..

Beautiful bike! Welcome to the hive Sam!

PerSnickety... Damn, I had to look it up!! For a minute I thought, that’s the sound of your engine with loose valve lash... Where else can you enrich your vocabulary with technical terms as such?! Love it!

Magnificent!!!

On the older model, the computer cable with USB-A plug was attached permanently to the interface and you needed an adapter to connect to a tablet or a phone. Nowadays a lot of laptop have USB-C ports as well, so I guess they upgraded the interface with a USB-B port to plug in the proper USB cable directly, eliminating the need for any adapter. Note that Lonelec sells the different USB cables separetely for a couple of bucks each so you could essentially make your interface ready for all type of USB connections. I'm not sure that you can run GuzziDiag on an iPad, my understanding is that there only is an Android version for mobile devices. I could be wrong though... it's happened before... Edit: No Android version of GuzziDiag exists at this time. If you want to run it on a tablet it has to be a Windows tablet.

Here is the direct link to the “Guzzi” cables. https://www.lonelec.com/product/guzzidiag-3pin-interface-cable-kit/ All you have to do is choose an option for the cable to plug to your computer/tablet/phone. The original cables came with USB-A plug attached for standard PC connection. I’d go for that, you can always use an adapter if you want to plug into a tablet/phone.

To do a TPS adjustment, you need to loosen the 2 screws that fasten it to the throttle body and rotate it until you read your desired output - 157mV. It's pretty sensitive, we are talking micro adjustment here. Only loosen the screws enough to allow rotation while maintaining some tension. Your output might jump around when you tighten the screws back so you might need to rinse and repeat until locked in. And definetely read and follow docc procedure in Decent Tune-up: https://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?/topic/19610-decent-tune-up/

One could fairly easily fabricate their own fender eliminator /license plate holder /tail tidy or whatever you wanna call it... Here is an interesting idea/drawing that could be implemented as is or used for inspiration. Fender Eliminator Bracket.pdf

Yes, fun memories with that car… Then I finally had to scrap it when the fuel tank developed leaks due to rust… Enjoy your GTV!

That was my dream car as a young driver… I had a ‘74 Alphasud, the poor man Alpha Romeo. Great fun to drive but I it literally just rusted away.

Premium prices even considering the shipping is included. But then it comes from the motherland...

If you already have the powder then by all mean, use that.

That is great, thank you Chuck! Take your time, finish your flying machine, no hurry on my side, don’t just go take off into the sunset... On the finish side of things, would it be possible to have a satin black instead of flat? That’s how I’m having all my little parts that sit in the background refinished.

OK, let's close that deal, I'll take two to make it ten. I personally would prefer mines in black, powder coated if possible. IIRC Chuck made a run of powder coated ones, otherwise I'll take them raw as I have a bunch of parts to send to the PC. @Chuck? And thanks to everyone who raised their hands for this!

눈빛만으로 알 수가 있지 어떤 세상을 살아왔는지

I’m telling the truth, very, slowly 내가 다가갈게 천천히, 아주 천천히 손짓만으로 알 수가 있지 너가 얼마나 착한 애인지

After this highly entertaining and educative interlude where we learned about the virtues of multilingualism, the pitfalls of ear twisting accents and the benefits of immersion when trying to master a foreign language, we will resume our scheduled programming... The forum pages are again loading normally, it must have been a temporary glitch, nothing to worry about. Carry on

About 20.7 liters(~5.5 us gal.) with 5 liters(~1.3 us gal.) reserve according to the manual.

I hear you Docc, what sounds like a good idea seems a little risky with a 500lbs bike... I would not try that solo.

Hear, Hear good people. The Lucky Phil engineered/ Chuck developped shifter extented bracket is not dead! If you want to own a historic part, spawned from a community of dedicated preservationist of the mighty V11 Sport and smooth out yer shifting in the process, now is the time to sign up... Thanks @Chuck
