igor

thanks

Hi Docc I think i start to understand , tell me if i'm wrong . To find this 6th gear not only the harm lenght should be adjusted but also the piece attached to the arm and entering the gearbox seen on the first picture ? thanks a lot for your help and patience . Igor

can it not be adjusted by removing the starter , making the 2 nuts left and right of the little arm loose and turning the rod/arm in one direction or the other to move the gear pedal up or down ? thanks

waow that seems a lot of work to adjust the shifter . remove the swingarm ? i was speaking about the nut bolt closest to the gear box on the second picture you see the end of the rod hidden behind a roundish cap sorry not very use to moto guzzi and mechanics . thanks

hello docc , iwas wondering to adjust the shift lever . i manage to loose the bolt on the right side , should i take off the plastic cap on the left side to able to reach the second bolt ? thanks

yes the fluid level is fine .

the seller told me he has put this : Castrol MTX Full Synthetic 75W140 is it recommended ?

the seller told me that he changed the gear box oil . could it be a wrong oil ?

interesting thanks

hello docc thanks for your reply . i'll try the adjustement , then eventually fresh fluid . can you explain me what do you mean with " It is notable that the V11 shift mechanism benefits from "preloading" (introducing foot pressure to the shift lever) before releasing the clutch for the gear change. " ? foot pressure ?

thanks for your reply so it's just a gear shifter adjustement ? small chances of having a problem in the gear box ? someone told me is almost impossible to have the 6th gear problem , happens mostly with lower gears ? thanks a lot

hi thanks for your reply , is it possible to check with the frame number which model it is before i start fiddling around with it ? what do you mean by the down stroke ?

thanks a lot i'll try to check this

hi everyone i'm from belgium and just acquired a v11 le mans from 2001 ( says on the first registration papers ) when i look at specifications for this year model , it says 6 gears i only have 5 gears on mine , could it be an earlier version or is it possible a faulty gearbox that cant reach the 6th gear ? thanks a lot for your replies

hi everyone , just acquire a v11 le mans from 2000 . i have a problem with the speedometer : the trip km works but the overall km stand stay stuck . Does it make any sense to open the unit and try to fix it , maybe a resistor or other electrical parts is faulty , or is it a common issue that is not easily fixed ? thanks a lot . or maybe someone has a spare one laying around ;-) the one with the white background
