You chaps dream big! I’m feeling the need to put restrictions on monetary values here... We already have a thread about ‘dweam bikes wot i’d wuv to have pwease!’ (GIVE ME A MGS01 LORD)
I’m talking about relatively cheap bikes guys. Bikes that there’s no reason not to have (bar the space). Praps under the five thousand mark..?
Okaaay; perhaps this one is a more appropriate choice then (my first motorcycle, which I still regret crashing....)

How about this one: http://www.wendelmotorraeder.de/moto-guzzi-spare-parts-and-accessories-for-v11-models-c-30_3006_300602.html (not sure about the copy image location function though)...

My 2003 Le Mans Rosso Corsa which was converted in 2010 to dual ignition and a different camshaft to improve midrange response, by HTM Aachen, now approx. 30,000 Km (and..... not for sale anytime soon).

I have been using this one (http://shop.becker-technik.de/en/motorbike-lifters/24-central-lifter.html; see also http://www.mgcycle.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2995 ) for the past 15 years. Very simple and effective. (see also
)

Blast from the past: with the Rossa on the Nordschleife in 2016...

Thanks a lot Jaap; will drop them a line

Hello,
I am looking for the small round black rrubber cover on the brake/clutch pump to cover where the side mirror is normally fixed. Anyone knows where to find this (I tried Stein Dinze and Wendel in Berlin but they do not have it). Thanks a lot.

Thanks, will do! I plan to pull the tank on Sunday, so I'll find out then.
Perhaps this can help? http://www.wendelmotorraeder.de/coupling_ap8104192-p-3037788.html?ref=expl

Dang! I've had the pump outlet pipe break off once when trying to move some wiring out of the way...
Ouch; unless somebody can fix the broken pipe, this is a big issue (had the same issue a couple of years ago and managed to find a second hand fuel pump... these things cost a fortune).

16 years!!!
The Odyssey PC545 is the OEM battery. Why not just get another?
Thanks a lot. docc Your suggestion makes a lot of sense. After all those years I was. however, thinking something in the sense of: "Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. We have the capability..... Better than he was before. Better...stronger...faster." . Perhaps this does not apply to the battery for my Rosso

Ciao,
After 16 years (!) my OEM Hawker battery seems to have given up. I saw on the forum that some of you have replaced the Hawker with the Odyssey PC545, whereas I have also seen recommendations elsewhere for the Unibat X Racer 15. I ride my Rosso Corsa two/three times a year during longer summer trips; the rest of the time she hibernates in a cozy garage, battery disconnected. Thanks a lot.

I just bought my 2004 Rosso Corsa with under 2K on the odometer. I love V-twins and have always like the Guzzi LeMans, so finding this was perfect. The styling of today's bikes doesn't appeal to me much and this bike really is a beauty. I really like the sport-touring set-up and the premium suspension. Thinking I may lower the foot pegs and someday replace the cans with proper reverse cone mufflers. For now I plan to remove the bag racks and ride it!
A bit of a belated reaction, but, judging by the colors, this beauty does not look like a Rosso Corsa (even if it has the Ohlins front fork).
-
No Ti pipes; nu plaque. But, great paintjob and the Ohlins suspenspion.

I can recommend the Geelong Carbon Craft fender. Easy to mount and perfect fit (www.geelongcarboncraft.com.au)

Sorry to read about your mishaps. I took my Rossa several times on similar trips; only problems (so far
): several speedo cables; one rear view mirror that fell off on the Autobahn. I would think that your brake problem is highly unusual. Even during race track use, one can rely on the brakes. I still hope that you enjoyed your trip! -
Nice pics; like the AGV helmet.

New reply to old post
..Did you check with Bagster (French brand). I like their system with the tank cover. Bag is quite spacious. -
It would be great if these option bags would be interchangeable with the Teknos, but I have the impression that the mounts are very different?
-
Nice! But the space between seat and frame ... I don't know.
Probably a tall rider needing the leg room?
There must be more "elegant" ways to solve this? -

..... What Else? -
I'm inclined to agree with you here. I have a friend who put his wife through nursing school and bought her a great set of fake boobs...she left him six months later armed with a new career path and fresh paint.
I think the takeaway here should be NOT to sell the bike.
I doubt whether Kipling would ever have approved of b. jobs (or similar practices) -
Soooo, what's still good about this bike?
(Reasonably available) bikes you’d like to own!
