docc Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Moto International in your neighboring Seattle should be a good resource for you. Yet, I was thinking the "mother lode' of V11 parts went to HMB-Guzzi in Germany. Perhaps that was only a rumor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vuzzi Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 TLM (www.tlm.nl) in the netherlands has most parts and a good web-shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Jaap Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 "Good webshop?" No, it's the worst in it's kind! Not user friendly, not logical. Search functio is even worse... If I want to order parts I go to http://www.collmann.eu/index/index.php (german only) or http://www.wendelmotorraeder.de/shop/index.php?cPath=1_8 (also german only) After that I give TLM a call for a pricing! and a lot of the times I end up buying with them, because they're nice people!

dave Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I like the site http://www.mgcycle.com/... it seems to be well organized and nicely located west of the atlantic ocean. Prices are generally fair if not always the lowest. Harper's MG on the west coast has offerings as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Hagan Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I like the site http://www.mgcycle.com/... it seems to be well organized and nicely located west of the atlantic ocean. Prices are generally fair if not always the lowest. Harper's MG on the west coast has offerings as well. I certainly agree about both of those, tho never quite thought of Kansas City as on the west coast. . The former's website has gotten exponentially better over past couple of years, and the latter is making progress, too. I usually start, tho, with MPH out of dealer loyalty. Bought my Norge there, and Todd is super responsive. Jim at Rose Farm Classics also seems able to find most everything quickly, and I am starting to lean toward him because I got my Griso there, and he's close ... well, by Guzzi dealer standards, anyway. Oh, and, Dave, that pic of your V11 is stunning. Who did that paint work? I keep talking about redoing my Norge in Carabinieri livery, and that sort of look on a finished product may move me off the dime. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twhitaker Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 If you are looking for suspension upgrades there is Todd Eagan, RacerX on this forum, at http://archive.guzzitech.com/ He's the Power Commander guru and I believe he also deals with exhaust upgrades.

dave Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Thanks Bill! I did the paint work myself. I buggered it the 1st time by using a flex additive that just made it look like plastic... sanding that out was bad, I almost gave up. West coast What's a thousand miles amongst friends?

Well, to be honest, I never use the webshop to order, so I don't know about that interface, but you can see what they have, and they have a lot. I then go there or call them on the telephone and ask to send. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more like 1600 miles, it's 1,000 miles to the east coast tho.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
