Enjoyed that, thanks

[Single malt - what are you drinking?]

I'm fond of Cardhu and 15 year Dalwhinnie but I do like a few Bourbons too.  Buffalo Trace is a current fave. Cheers!  Marty

 

Plus one for the gentle flavours of Dalwhinnie

I love the innovation even if the aesthetics are questionable

Yep, support a top bloke and a superb resource   

[THIS will be my next Guzzi]

Thanks for the links but now I think it has to be the ercole

 

[THIS will be my next Guzzi]

Fair play to you   it would be a bit steady with this power plant

 

 

You might like to look at Fellini's film La Strada with Anthony Quinn where Quinn use an Ercole as his home and transport for his travelling show

 

 

Although I might just have this wrong http://www.motoguzziercole.it/film.asp just looking at the engine.

[THIS will be my next Guzzi]

I had hoped to see a couple of the popular Ercoles in the Moto Guzzi museum a couple of weeks ago. There was only this baby one on display

[Oil leak]

I have not used any RTV sealants for the last 20 years since I used it on a Yamaha TR1 v-twin......

 

Ye Gods that takes me back, had one to satisfy my craving for a non Harley v-twin.   Fully enclosed rear chain was a big attraction.  Brand new they were selling for amazing knock down prices. 

[V11 Le Mans Center Stand Kit]

Wil Mahler at TLM says they don't have one to fit '03

 

Looks like fabbing one up is the only Euro option now.

[V11 Le Mans Center Stand Kit]

I've just emailed them to find out

[V11 Le Mans Center Stand Kit]

Teo Lamers has a V11 Sport stand listed at EUR200  - would cost you more to get that shipped from Europe.

 got the linky Andy?

[V11 Le Mans Center Stand Kit]

I've been looking for a centre stand for a long time. Would be useful to me. I've just asked a mate if he could put together a batch. Any thoughts on what people would really be prepared to pay?

Still running the original in my 04 registered (03) RC

[Recent Replacement Headlight Thread ..]

When my original lamp was cracked I replaced it with a Cibie unit. Got a bodge point for using RTV silicone as a fixative. Did the connect by relay trick to improve voltage to the bulb and now have a far superior light.

 

 

[Motobits vs. Motratech Peg Relocation]

My knees aren't bad, I just like to be comfortable and of course I'm left handed.

[Ewan McGregor on V11 Tenni]

Course he'll read it, welcome to the club.

[New helmet - flip-up?]

Shark Evoline is next for me.  Hopefully will replace both my Arai tour and HJC goldfish bowl

[Wow! Britten VS Raceco Guzzi]

That WAS impressive. Thanks for posting

[Lowered Pegs]

What about the MotraTech Foot Position Relocation Kit? Is this a good option? I see one for sale in the classified section on this forum.
