coreytrevor Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I've seen that sometime in the past. Lots of great tech information there that you probably wouldn't find anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docc Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Seems the beloved Dave Richardson (author of Guzziology) really liked the V11 Sport. Some great information I have never read before on the changes to the heads and new pistons. Referencing no less than Dr. John Wittner. As with so many web articles, no date stamp, though.

fotoguzzi Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 apparently written in 2000 since he rode a 2000 V11 sport and does not mention the Lemans version at all.. plus he called it "new". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swooshdave Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 As with so many web articles, no date stamp, though. He calls it the "new V11 Sport". The forensic scientist in me says this dates it to somewhere around the turn of the century. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docc Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 The archivist in me is curious if it was 1999. My Sport was built March 2000, purchased August 3 and was the second one in this state. Not sure if any "1999" made it to the US or how early in '99 they were rolled out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bbennett Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 By the way, Dave Richardson retired just a few days ago. He is in good spirits and seems genuinely happy to be starting his next chapter of life. Moto Int. in Seattle continues to be a very active dealership focused on Moto Guzzi and Aprilia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
