  1. a little talk about it.- https://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19358&hl=%2Bangle+%2Bvalve+%2Bstem&do=findComment&comment=209254 it.- https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001P4ZOL0/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=AZYXKYQHQPWSD&psc=1
  2. really, parts included? specialized equipment. the man's credentials gotta count for something. Who else does this sort of service, the dealership? re brace... thanks, email sent to Don
  3. "full on refurb" specifics on that procedure would be interesting indeed where'd you get the brace? I need one which way did you go with image posting? they look great
  4. thanks for the follow up report
  5. Interesting. Is Valeo the mfg of starter that comes standard on our bikes?
  6. Could be replaced gauges. And with the '02 carryover bikes there was likely varying parts bin mix n match. Could be Staintune polished stainless cans? Prices? I'll take a shot.. Good condition... 4k is a good deal. Under 5k might be acceptable. If it's nearby and the owner seems the caring sort.
  7. the manifold nipples are open? that will cause the problem
  8. Welcome Gavin. Looking forward to the adventure
  9. I don't know if this is the case but it could be caused by an offset motor. My K1200 RS rear was offset 10mm ( I think) making left cornering a bit sketchier than right. Were our motors offset for the 5.5 rim? Also, if your front tire is worn you'll have less tread on the left side.
  10. Finland looks fun. Home to Steve and the seagulls
  11. yup, great idea. those hanger brackets look easy to make and unlimited positioning options
  12. Gorgeous! She sounds like she could eat your soul!
  13. a pic from a vendor site ****SOLD*** I'd say it has a 3-4" rise over stock. top to base is 15 1/2" has some minor scratching and fogging/haze. It ain't perfect but not too worn. 2 indoor and 2 outdoor photos I'd like $40 for it, and whatever shipping is to you. I will pack it nicely!
  14. there was a thread some time ago regarding those rotor buttons. oxidation can make them stuck. remedy is to make a bolt/nut set up to clamp the button, and spin it with a drill. It won't work on my '00 but will on the '02 which has through holes.
  15. Looking forward to seeing you both. Made me check my reservations Bill. Maybe Wait just doesn't recognize some of us as Guzzisti
  16. thanks for posting and translating this. I wish I could read the comments section. I'm liking this bike concept so far. I've been looking longingly at a Duc Scrambler X Sled
  17. you could fab a small bracket and attach to the hanger so it doesn't touch the can. on the bracket, mount the Lafranconi guards
  18. the one in Cincinnati is ...um... no longer there
  19. lol...tempting, but honestly, I'm with ya on the tires Dave. I'd pick her up fer sure. No surprises.
  20. if you ride it back pack some relays for the trip. If the owner hasn't done it already, you'll want a new batch of Omrons anyway.
