Hi All, So sorry if this topic has been beat to death but as a very new member to the forum I could not locate any dialogue on it. My lo miler 2002 V-11 Le Mans has developed a wicked oil leak that appears to be coming from the alternator area. In an effort to be a 'good citizen' I took it to our local Ducatti dealer for repair. Sadly we have no qualified Moto Guzzi dealer here. The guys dutifully replaced the seal behind the alternator and returned the bike to me. After 250 kms. while heading to Sturgis I found that the leak was no better in fact possibly worse. I found an English blog that talked about this type of leak and they suggested that there is an o-ring behind that seal that could also be the problem. MPH sent me a new seal and o-ring that I now want to fit. However I need a little ground schooling first. For example: What direction removes the large nut on the alternator (clockwise or counterclockwise)? How do I lock the flywheel to facilitate the removal and refit? Do you locktite it back in place? What is the torque spec? Any other suggestions as to this repair or related engine front oil leak repairs? I love the bike, love my new Staintunes, love the MPH barbacks, Hate the oil leaks ! Snowbird
