That sounds like classic V11 "heat soak" made worse by the ECU always starting up and running a rich map for the first 4,000+ rpm. This effect is exacerbated when the plugs/valve adjustment/state of tune has aged out from the last service interval . . .

There is such a thing as horrid pie . . .

What about adding, to the ethanol-free fuel, a product like "Sta-Bil" fuel stabilizer?

I don't read music, but I see a lot "whip-chow" . . .

Haha - yeah, "music is just A-B-C-D-E-F-G" as some smartaxx musician once told me. But, like, NEVER in that order. I thought neurophysiology was complicated. Until I picked up string instruments.

So, as long as they are in the specified range, the trigger has the same outcome? In other words, there would be no "tuning" effects to setting it close versus furthest out in the specified range?

So.... it induces or it doesn't? Not like you can get more or less induction by setting it closer or further?

Pretty excited to listen to/ watch some new video of Anika Nilles playing with RUSH . . .

Oslo-Bergen-HAMAR !! SpineRaid

Hey Ali Fra! Thanks for checking in! Once you get re-settled, there is another V11Le Mans waiting for you . . .

This next part is pretty sketchy . . . (depending on the interwebs to translate US south'n vernacular into Dutch ) . . . Y'all come now. Ya hear? Kom allemaal. Hoor je het?

Just magnificent!!! Did Moto Guzzi have a name for that stunning yellow besides just "giallo?"

Looks like a @gstallons question . . .

World Spine Raid next year!

Just a gentle reminder that a "Spine Raid " is (loosely) defined as an > idea < that involves two, or more, spine frame Moto Guzzi, in any combination with "Spine Raiders " (Moto Guzzi spine frame enthusiasts) who may, or may not, attend with a SpineFrame Guzzi, various springs, relays, fasteners, grappa, Islay Scotch, Märzen bier, Kentucky Bourbon, multimeters, special tools or other creative encouragements. Have yourself a Spine Raid, where ever you are! Get There. Bring Tools.

I don't know if the clutch cylinder is the same internally as the V11, but I've had the internal spring break into pieces a couple times. There was excessive lever play and the engagement range was affected ... The last time I found it like this: First time, along with rebuild kit:

Thanks for the shout-out to let us know. I hope the new owner finds us. There is no V11 ownership requirement to pop in and enjoy the community, @thumper!

If it were a Ballabio, there will be original headlight/instrument brackets that would mount to the frame instead of the forks. Also, handlebars (not "clip-ons") . . . .

Looks like a pure and true "Sport" rather than a converted Ballabio. If it is, indeed a converted Ballabio, it is very nicely done! Looks like a great score! Love the high mount Titanium canisters!

Gorgeous Sport, @105Gunner! That has a lot of cool things going on!

Do you have a digital volt meter?

Hi, Dell! What is the make/model/age of the battery? What relays are in it?

@Gmc28, I hope my effort to help set up your thread came out okay. Sometimes that can be messy. I did try to add back your second photo, but it does not look like that came through.... Looking forward to your V700's progress!
