I’m not into cruisers at all but this clean - and good looking I might add - low mileage 2003 California EV may be of interest to some of you.

As long-as the Hydro recall was done that’s a smokin deal with under 4K..
id want to se receipts on the recall work and seem to remember there was more than one hydro kit.might be worth looking into who and when the recall was done.

Not a V11, but looks to be well cared for. The engine and gearbox should be familiar to us.

Totally different gear box, the Cali has a 5 speed

Skip, which one of you 3 rode two bikes? Or was one of them a spare? The trailer looks packed, did you have enough tongue weight?

Only part of it, the neck is still red.

Checked the valve clearance and adjusted them, in .17 and .20, out .18 and .21.
Now in .10, out .15 like in the manuel, also changed the valve covers to something less orange.
Good move changing out the red valve covers, looks better now.

Revilo I have some parts that might fit. Mostly from 2000 era California bikes but may be the same as used on V11. Ignition barrel and key, fuel cap with key, they don’t match. Left switch gear. Also a clutch lever and perch but I think it’s different than the V11. If you send me an email I can send you pics to verify if any of these parts will work. Might not be too cheap to ship to UK. I’m in USA. But you can have the parts no charge just pay shipping. Brad

I saw Zappa live in a small theater in Wisconsin.. probably only about 500 people in there. What an awesome show. FZ wore pink pants and no shirt. He had total control of that band tight was an understatement. Second best show I ever saw after SunRa and the Arkestra at Norma Jeans bar.. Space was the Place!
incredible.

I think the black Sport is almost as rare.. remember John Fish sold his after being on the market for a long time.. for $3000. Similar mileage I think.. Black at least as fetching as the roso ..

RM f/s near me.. I’ve sent inquiry, has the DS/UJ ever been greased, any trouble with clutch ? Waiting for reply. I’m not bowled over by it but might go take a look, about 90 miles from me.

This bike is not one of the first 300.. it does not have the carbon fiber exhaust, just the heavy stock V11 mufflers. 18,000 miles .. asking 4995. I think it’s a little high.. the extras, luggage and throttle mister don’t do much for me. center stand, yes that’s nice to have...anyone care to comment?

Old man buys bike from older man.(maybe). I‘m 69 but not fat. I can ride that all day.

Thank you Audiomick. I’ll save those pages. I see the RM has a different number but appears it’s just for the grey color.
im researching all this because I have a lot of Centauro parts and I’m going to look at a Rosso Mandello later this week. I don’t really care for the dark colored rims.
I’m aware of the single plate clutch in the RM and the owner states no problem yet. I do have the Centauro 2plate clutch including the flywheel that I could keep in reserve (if I get the bike) I see tho the push rod has a different number. I don’t have the PR from the Centauro, so would need one of those if I ever swapped in the clutch.
two more thing I’m not to keen on are the red rocker covers or the stock mufflers.
what do I look for on the transmission if it doesn’t have the added brace? Is it super important to add that and how much work is it?

Would a pair of Centauro wheel fit right up on a V11? I have the C rims but no V11 to match up. And I don’t have parts book to check numbers.

ooooh, wait . . .
The V11 TPS cannot be set with GuzziDiag. That must be done with a quality voltmeter . . . (jus' sayin' . . .)
YOUR RIGHT AGAIN Docc.. as usual.. its been a long time since i had my V11..., Buell, Ducati & Norge since then so i forgot a lot of stuff I thought I knew/.. still got that V11 envy tho. can you use Diag to set the fuel trim??

You should have fun with Guzzidiag.. setting your TPS becomes a snap. It’s not too extensive with the V11 but the things it can read and tell you on the later CARC bikes is pretty awesome.

Coming to a garage near me soon

They are enormous DB bags, (Dan Brown?) that were modified by the PO.. he did a fantastic job and it wasn’t easy. Cut and re fiber glassed smoothed and painted.
here’s another bike with the bags in original shape, note the bump out on the back which had some running or brake lights, he cut those off so the turn signals fit better. Aesthetically mine look a lot classier.
