  1. the 1100 Sport has the clunky 5 speed.. the v11 Sport/LeMans has a sweet 6 speed.. both have 1064cc motor.. CPU also different.
  2. I have used the Harley TPS in both a V11 Lemans and Bassa.. I highly doubt you could tell any difference WHEN RIDING which TPS is installed. for me it was a no brainer $42 vs $300+
  3. this one NFS, I tried to get it but he won't let go.. HIGH miles but a good one.. dig that Quat D muffler..
  4. That looks like a Sport not a Lemans.

    Rear hugge

    back in the day there was a guy making simple plastic panels that fit in the frame to plug the vital areas and then you could just remove the hugger. I did just that.
  6. wish I had a real table lift.. [/u rl]
  7. check the mounts where the front frame down tubes bolt to engine for cracks if it was crashed.. also where the kick stand mounts to sump spacer.
  8. on my Guzzi's I never saw anything that needed cleaning inside the TB's.. on our Mazda Tribute yea, the butterfly got all gummed up and made the throttle pedal hard to push.. a rag and carb cleaner is all I used.
  9. Just for kicks here's another video from the I cycle derby this year.. disclaimer: I'm not involved with this hooliganism in anyway.
  10. it must be winter..
  11. I know of that Champagne V11 and it's pretty pristine.. the owner (Alan) flew in to Mpls and I drove him out to Wilmar Mn to buy it.. He then rode straight home to Co. when we started it up, oh my lord that sound..GLORIOUS! I was kicking myself for not being the buyer. w/under 10k miles the price is right in my book and if I had $$, I'd get it..
  12. reverse cones look better, mine had a raspy NASCAR TYPE SOUND. oval sound better deeper tone.
  13. what he said!
  14. I was thinking Norge or something newer than a V11..
  15. for me? there's Bob Dylan and everything below that is second shelf.. I maybe said that 9 pages back..but that's alright ma I'm only Bleeding..
  16. or, just ride and clean when it bothers you.. you won't loose enough oil to matter between changes.. mine misted from the timing cover gasket ever so slightly..
  17. you have a square fin big block.. the round fin is from the past, it's about the shape of the cylinder barrels cooling fins. the small block is the 750 in current bikes like the modern V7. there was a BB 750 in the 1970's like the V7 Sport.
  18. you host your photos on line somewhere like Smugmug then link the pic by pasting the code.. on smugmug calle dthe BBcode. dream bike I already had and sold in a moment of weakness.. XB12 XT,
  19. looks gold to me..
  20. all battery tenders are not equal.. if it's sat on trickle for 4 years , suspicious.. get a load test but I don't think the bike would run right at all if battery shot. more likely the magnets in starter have come unglued.. I hear they can be repaired.
