V11UK Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 Guzzi's are renowned for achieving high mileages. Just wondered what V11's had racked up so far. Anyone in excess of 50,000 miles yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebulon Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 on of my friend with a 1999 V11now deal with the 85 000 km so around 53 000 miles if i'm right. no real trouble except a fuel pump & some relays in the first days Nothing surprising for a guzzi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callison Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 28,000 on my 2001 V11 Sport before I punted the neighbors car with it. No real problems except the cracked transmission case. 57,000 miles on the 1997 Sport 1100i before the valve guides went south. Lots of electrical problems with that beast. 28,000 miles on my 1997 California until the clutch plate broke. Probably a direct result of trying to keep up with a Sport 1100i, a Daytona and a few V11 Sports on Hwy 97 out of Prescott Arizona a few years back. They're reliable enough. The major thing to watch out for in the engine itself seems to be soft valve stems and aggravated valve guide wear as a result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
