    Hi Mike,

    i contact you as I saw your message on the forum about the search for a right hand Tommaselli tube for the handlebar after you noticed it was bent. 
    i have the same problem and I cannot find a replacement part as Guzzi in a does not provide the spare part anymore here in France.

    i am looking for an alternative or a second hand part. 
    Do you have any idea please ? If any good part available in the US, I am ready to have it shipped to France...
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Ben.

    I did find a used Rh Bar from a private seller.Have you tried Peter Macolme?

    He is rebootguzzispares2@hotmail.com.uk

    www.rebootguzzispares.com

    He's a Guzzi Breaker.

    I have bought parts from him in the past at reasonable prices

    Good Luck

  2. Well,the Bearing puller didn't work.I ended up having to split the outer race of the needle Bearing and removing it that way.

    Not Fun in the Least.I do need to replace the washer behind the Needle Bearing.Is it a fairly straight forward job to  get to ,

    by removing the flange to get to the Washer?

     

  3. I took your Advice and Removed my Rear Wheel assembly again to Lube my Needle Bearing and Found this.

    When i rotate the Needle Bearing i can feel the Notchiness so the Outer Race is no Better.

    My Bike,2004 V11 Lemans has around 20,000 Miles on it.

    I have a New Inner Race and Needle Bearing on order.

    I also ordered a "Blind Bearing" Puller  hoping that will work.

    Thanks Again for your Advice.

    I wouldn't have known about it otherwise.

  4. Hi Everybody

    I have an 04 Lemans that i'm reinstalling the Rear Wheel and Differential.

    THe problem is that when i Disassembled it the Spacer and   Washer fell.

    I know where the Spacer goes,but the Parts Diagram makes it look like

    the washer goes between the Diff and the Rh Swingarm,which i don't think is right.

    It's a Thin,Large diameter washer with an inside diameter  larger than the Axle.

    Any help would be appreciated as i'd rather not put the bike back together

    until i'm sure where it goes.

    Thanks in Advance

    Mike

  5.  You have a Valeo D6RA starter.The same thing happened to my carb Sport.What happened was the magnets in the starter housing shifted because the adhesive let go.One magnet rotated with the armature  and got caught between the next magnet and the Armature.Go to WWW.euromtoelectrics.com

       They sell Magnet kits that come with dividers so the magnets can't shift again.I also bought a Starter Tuneup kit.Came with Brushes,springs ,brush holders,bushings,you name it.

       The kitchen sink is still working fine also

             Good Luck

  6. Hi.

    Does anyone have a RH Handlebar that will fit  my 2004 V11 Lemans? 

      I noticed mine was bent after i removed it.I really don't want to spend $212

     for Tommaselli clipons,and i'd rather not have to wait 6 weeks.

     If anyone has one left over from an update,let me know

               Thanks

             Mike.

      

  7. Two Months after i registered the bike which was three months after i bought it,i got a letter from my DMV saying they couldn't give me a title until i got it inspected by DMV.They issued me a Salvage/Rebuilt title.

      So,to answer your question,it must have been in an accident.

       I didn't see "salvage" anywhere on the title  that came with the bike.

     I wish i made a copy.

     Mike

  8. Does anyone know of a good Frame shop that can straighten the frame on my 2004 V11 Lemans?

      I pulled the forks off and rotated them against each other,They're not bent.Removed the swingarm and it's not bent.

         Thanks ahead for your help.

  9. I just joined the "Broken Shift Return Spring" Club on my way home from work today.Managed to get it into 3rd gear.

    It's a good thing i only live 5 miles from work.

    Anyway,i was wondering what it entails replacing the spring.

    I think i have a shop manual for my bike(2004 V11 Lemans)somewhere around the house but it might be quicker to visit the Factory and watch them assemble one.

    I didn't really study my bike to closely tonight as i had to rearrange the order of my bikes so i could ride my Sport 1100 while i'm working on the V11 .

    Thanks for any support

    Hi Mike

    Ive been in there a couple,2-3 times Im over in Accord if you need help.I may also have an extra spring.

    Basically the procedure is,

    Disconnect battery

    Take off shock remote

    Take off starter cover

    Dump trans box fluid save it if it's recent,replace if it been more than a couple seasons

    Take off connections to starter

    Disconnect neutral switch

    Remove starter

    disconnect gear change linkage

    remove the 11?! bolts that hold on cover,may have to tap off with a rubber mallet and yer in

    Take note of the position of the section gears there should be two indents to indicate alignment

    Yours may have extra bracing that Guzzi added later,mine doesn't

    Some info from one of my expeditions,with dumb newbie questions,that was about 4 times ago and the clutch was probably the reason why it shifted badly,but hey I can get the cover off in about 15-20 mins now :homer:

    Hi Michael.

    Sorry to not get back to you earlier.I bought a spring just from reading comments.The day after it came i pulled it apart.not too bad of a job.I think it was in 3rd gear when it stuck,so i thought i could leave it there when i put it back together.I couldn't fit the cover back on so i put the tranny in Nuetral and lined up the marks on the gears.Still wouldn't go back on.Lesson learned.I noticed that the shifting forks were sliding because my bike was not level.After i leveled it,piece of cake.

    Thanks for you help Michael.

    Oh and i live near hudson.

    i used to race down at Accord Speedway with my brother and buddies in the 70's
