Just like to say.. the bike isn't bad.. just needs some tlc... you wait she's going to come out if this sweet. The potential ofa great bike is right there at our fingertips. She's going in to the mechanics on Wednesday. Definitely mechanical. . Air intake Valve... will update you once nutted out

My rear brake reservoir is on the right side attached to the frame as shown in pic

Took a comparison pic of under seat. . Corsa with battery.. my cafe sport without. . Starting to think the frame had been rebuilt. . They're totally different

Hi Owned a v11 cafe sport for just over a month now. I'm in Christchurch, New Zealand. Friend. . Also, a guzzi owner, knowing I was bike shopping after having sold my kawasaki zephyr 750, showed me guzzi for sale.. half joking.. then I text back. .I own it! Now teach me how to look after it...I love her.. and once running sweet plan on plenty of long road trips. I have been riding for around 6 years. . Started riding a harley 1100 when living in the usa.. moved to something a little lighter. . Yamaha 650 classic.. then moved back to NZ... bought a cheap old bike after a couple of years. . Honda Ft 400... then the zephyr.. now my guzzi. There's another post about the issues with her. . But hasn't put me off.. Think I'm a guzzi girl for life

Cheers Andy, Finally got her out for a ride today. Nothing too major, some cosmetic things I've got to sort out, like no dial on the odo to reset the counter. Definitely a miss when sitting around 3k rpm. shes actually a lot tidier than I expected..I am thinking she needs a new battery..will chuck this one on a charger see what it reads. But all in all for the money, I've got a great bike!

Thanks D for the introduction, I finally got the validation sorted to set up my account..will say Hi briefly as I figure out how this all works. I see you've already put up a pic of Xena
