It looks like a fair number of Guzzisti from the region will be descending on Freedom for this event.
I was just about to post this and glad someone beat me to it. Steve Walker from MGNOC has put the word out on his list too. I need a new oil filter for the Scura anyway.

Perhaps to convert your Sport to LeMans trim?

I know the bike it came off of and the seller, but he didn't ask me to post this, and I gain nothing by it.
(It's from Sweetbaby Ray's old LeMans.)
I might be interested the big question would be the price?

In Arkansas we have some of the best roads in the US. Two mountain ranges and few people. About 350 miles from Birmingham to Ozark Mountains.

How many are members of MGNOC ? It's not large , but you get a newsletter and membership list. The same quality people as this group comprised of people who can change their own oil,etc......
p.s. I understand there is a MGIOC(sp) honk if you are a member there also!
I have been a member for about 17 years. Always good information but like with Guzzi in general it is an old guy club (includes me I guess). If I look at pictures from MGNOC events 18 years ago few people have gray hair, pictures now have almost all gray hair unless they shower with extra strength Grecian formula. Still some dedicated guys, many of which can field strip a Guzzi in about 14 minutes.
Gas Mileage

My 93 Cal III I.E. gets 47-55 mpg us. My old LeMans IV got 45-50 mpg us. The best I have ever gotten out of the Scura is 42, worst is 34, mostly stock just a PC III added. All the fuel injected Guzzis got 50 mpg until 98 when the EV came out and low 30s were the norm until some riders started figuring out it was the new sensor in the valve covers that were added to the system, foiled it in various ingenious ways and got back into the 50s. Breva riders I talk to claim they run in the 50s and so does a Norge owner I know. The reports on the new 1200 Sport all put the fuel mileage at an average of 44-45 so I think the V11s just get poor mileage. Has anyone tried foiling the temp sensor in the head? Mario
