gstallons Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 There are two different brands and two different sizes . Can you be specific ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motortouring Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 There is one from a used parts company in NL. https://www.boonstraparts.com/nl/onderdeel/moto-guzzi-v11-1100-le-mans-2002-2006-voorvork-2002/000001072889 Maybe they ship to Costa Rica :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gstallons Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Make sure the fork caps on your bike are identical to the one shown in the pics on the advertised forks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the best way to identify the different versions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gstallons Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Yep , trust me . I know after ordering all the stuff to reseal my forks . The gold anodized forks are of course Ohlins . The other ones are Marzocchi . Unpainted and painted . Early and late model . Look at the fork caps to be sure about the Marzocchi . The painted forks in the above picture are late model forks . There are no absolutes on this , so just go by pictures to match them up . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docc Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Also, be aware of axle variations. Early 40 mm Marzocchi had either a screw in axle and a nutted axle. Later 43mm Marzocchi had either a solid axle and a hollow axle, IIRC.... Seems that early forks had both compression and rebound adjustment and later forks, compression only?

gstallons Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Who knows ? as w/MG , there is one thing for certain , there's nothing for certain! Looking at my Red frame and Black frame bikes , the red frame has 40mm unpainted forks and the black frame has 40mm painted forks. I have a 43mm painted fork out in the shop and it has the different fork cap/adjuster setup from the others. These measurements are taken on the lower portion of the fork leg. Take pictures and measurements before you do anything. p.s. buy a parts manual so you can be sure , amused , entertained and thoroughly confused. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gstallons Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Whew . These bikes should be sold by serial number breaks , not model year designations . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
