many here use photobucket but this forum won't accept mine (fromPB) shot on my phone, but will accept from PB if I shot on my Cannon. go fig. I have also been successful about half the time using copy paste, if it's small enough. sounds like you've done as much as you can do for now. good luck with it. thanks for the info. inquiring minds ya know....

Were you able to disengage the clutch or did the wheel not lock up? Thankfully it went without catastrophe. Was anything leaking after? I will follow with interest. It seems an unusual failure.

what's the red wire for docc?

the axle bolt tightened puts everything where it belongs so it's first. the pinch bolts keep it there.

very nice work. I love the logo. I can't wait to see the new Goose project!

hope that fixed it. when tracking a problem and blowing fuses, I think one of these comes in handy. auto reset fuse (breaker) I didn't buy this one... went to auto zone. http://www.delcity.net/store/Maxi-Fuse-Breakers/p_152.h_187700.t_1.r_IF1003?mkwid=sIDeGB8L5&crid=38094426869&mp_kw=&mp_mt=&gclid=Cj0KEQjw2ua8BRDeusOkl5qth4QBEiQA8BpQcFbVhyD5KdX_f3d2AikNATPwHG_2iTrcJ-M-1rS-DtIaAoml8P8HAQ

wow, I wonder what a Greenie would look like as a LM???? Beautiful bike LPhil.

dang docc... sorry I lost track of that. research back on. pm soon

Oh! Oh, my! That! ok that's gross besides, it's Italian.... everything has a purpose

Scud- breath deep. It could be something besides the gasket surfaces. That seems like a lot of oil for just seepage. Maybe something else was disturbed/cracked/etc during the plate install. Drain plug issues? I only suggest because it usually winds up being something stupid simple for me. Anyway, it's just a a hunk of iron. It will be sorted. And shop fail is better than road fail.

That bike will look great with or without the fairing. No doubt the LM fairing was perfectly designed addition for the Sport. An ideal combination of modern and classic that will only get more attention and appreciation with age. You see where I'm going with this.... as has been indicated, you are starting with the best iteration of the model. That said, you can always put it back.

HRC. I'd recommend getting a small coiled steel cable with an attached in line combination lock for your helmet. There are several brands and they pack away quite small. I can carry mine in my jacket pocket easily when not using a tank bag. They are made for bicycles I believe(and what not).The cable unwinds to about 3' and will pass through my jacket sleeve, helmet visor hole, and through the forks under the upper clamp. Everything rests at the front of the tank. I carry an extra for a friend now and then. I'd hate to lose my Vanson, and had a friend get his helmet stolen.

I asked this last year. Seems logical. The single plate clutch is a completely different unit. You have 3 choices as far as I'm aware. 1. replace flywheel with a new oem aluminum. (not a good choice). 2. replace clutch and flywheel with a dual plate and steel flywheel. 3. find and replace with a RAM low inertia single plate unit. (has steel flywheel). RAM clutches are not easy to find. I "think" the 5 speed RAM will work with your clutch gear. Read all the threads on here regarding this problem. Start with this one: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19510 Keep us posted on progress.

I wouldn't have had the courage to change the color of a 'special', but I couldn't think of a better color to change to. Viva Coppa Scurra

wow. thanks for sharing that AZ.

sorry. I shouda included a 'graphic' warning

It was not easy for me to tell if there was a gasket there in mine. I used a tool my dad made many years ago. An ice pick with an ever-so-carefully bent tip. About 1/4" & 90 degrees. My Yamaha had 2 sets of gaskets in when I changed them out.

stole this from another site... left - starter ring. center - clutch plate. right - part of aluminum flywheel.

Why not try the Ti ECU (without Power Commander) before changing anything else? Yeah, that's the next step for me. The allergic reaction to changes I've made could hopefully shed some light for Roy's diagnosis. I'll swap that out this weekend, and after some miles, report back.

To add to the speculation, The Tenni has recently developed a sneeze, though I called it a cough. Rare, but there. When hot and upon rev from idle. Before: (ran perfect) stock cans FBF Xover, BMC filter, PC3, dyno tuned. After (coughs) same as above but swapped in Stucci for FBF, and added MG Ti cans. not the Ti ECU, no changes done with tuning yet. Done about 150mi. since swap. Still runs great. Just the sneeze. Obvious to me, a response to the cans. New tune in the very near future.

The new RAM flywheel is steel, instead of aluminum.

very nice. I like the pipes too.

Tenni 121 12700. mi. no problems

the price when I ordered was I think, 580. The new price was 600 something, but when they got the presumably 'last' 3 in, they took it off the available list. All 3 are sold I believe. Couldn't hurt to check with them and see what's up. I got the impression they were tired of dealing with the uncertainty of availability. MGCycles may not be the only vendor to have received them recently. Doesn't seem right, just making up 3 units.
