    Wow... I was selling them for $10 each to do a bit better than break even. Thanks for posting the quote - I'll go ahead and get my order placed this week.

    Can I still get in on this? If so, I'd take 2.

    Already had the spring fail but fixed it with the updated version & have had no issues to date. However, a little insurance never hurts. :lol:

  2. Been pretty busy at work these days but recently got out for a ride on the new LeMans.

     

    The weather lately has been absolutely fantastic here in North Texas and made-to-order for riding the bike. I sent a text to James & Pat to see if they wanted to meet me at the Koffee Kup down in Hico for lunch and pie. Unfortunately, Pat already had an engagement with 3 Twisted Sisters in the Hill Country & James called me when he got my text to tell me he & Wayne were in Hico at the Koffee Kup already!! Thanks for the invite buddy!

     

    I left my house at 8:30am and 465 miles later I was back home in time to catch the Mavericks play and relax with a couple of glasses of my favorite nectar from the Isle of Islay while singing one of my favorite tunes... "I love scotch. Scotchy, scotch, scotch. Here it goes down, down into my belly.."

    I took a very round about way to Hico and one of my favorite stops is in Forestburg where I like to grab a burger at the Forestburg Country Store. Forestburg has a population of about 1200 people and the Country Store is the town's grocery store, feed store, hardware store, restaurant/grill, gas station and general gathering spot to meet & gossip.

  3. Hello Everyone!

     

    Thought I would take a moment and introduce myself. Been a member of your fine forum for a week or two and happened onto the site as a result of my search for V11 LeMans information. In about a week or so I should be the proud owner of a V11 LeMans of my very own! Pumped!

     

    I currently ride an '07 BMW K12S which has been a hell of a bike! Apart from trail riding, it does everything well and makes for a fantastic hyper-sport touring machine & getting from point A to point B & back is big time fun. I graduated to the KS from an '02 K12RS which was my first bike and also a fantastic touring machine. But I made the mistake of test riding the K12S and that's all she wrote.

     

    The Guzzi will be my second bike and I was inspired by my riding buddy who has a 2000 V11 Sport that's pretty sharp. Once I got interested and began poking around for information, I discovered the LeMans.

     

    Anyway, glad to be here and I hope to learn a thing or two along the way.

     

    Update!

     

    I did get my LeMans... an '03 and I couldn't be happier.
