Hey everyone, new guy here. Very close to my frist Guzzi. Had some questions.
I've pretty much owned everything but a Guzzi in my time and am looking at a 2003 LeMans. 2100 miles. The only issue is that the bike has been dropped on the left side. Slightly bent clutch lever, small scuff on the farring, small scuff on the head protector? and the left can, and a slightly bent left clipon bar.
It apparently happened as the rider came to a stop. I've read the FAQ, so I'm aware of the standard things, and I've ridden the bike and it rides fine.
Is there anything I should specifically check for on one of these that has hit the ground?
I noticed some slight oil weeping from the valve covers, and some on the bottom crossover but that looks like from the last careless oil change.
Secondly, is there anyone who has compared the BMW R1100 S to the LeMans? I've got a line on one of these as well, but I'm leaning heavily towards the Guzzi.
Any info you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Jes.
