Hi all,
I recently picked an '02 V11 Scura with 4100 miles on it. My current ride is an '08 S4RS Tri Colore Ducati, and my wife is on an '07 1098S. The Guzzi is definitely a "different" ride, but nonetheless a blast to run around on. This forum has been outstanding in practical information on maintaining this bike (I have already stripped and repainted the engine block bubbling paint...it was a pain, buit it looks like new now. Thanks to all that contributed to those threads!). The Exhaust was removed and polished, and all the fluids have been changed. I have more plans for some mods (bar end mirrors are going on soon... I stole the old mirrors from my Monster and stuck them on the Scura for now).
I would like to know if anyone has suggestions on obtaining Carbon Fiber components for this bike. I am specifically looking for a CF piece to replace the stock rear seat cowling which is a bit dinged up. And, if there is a good place to order online or otherwise stock pieces for the bike (Air filters, oil fliters, cv boots, fuel filters, etc.) suggestions would be appreciated. It seems the "Guzzi World" is a bit lacking in aftermarket parts and suppliers! Even the dealerships seem a bit foggy to me. If any of these questions are redundant, forgive me... I try using the "search" feature on this forum, but it leaves a lot to be desired. Thanks for any and all the help!
