antonio carroccio Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 Jim, why don't you forget about it. There will be no MGS. Moto Guzzi has stopped the production of this bike. The engine is no longer available and the chassis is a too complicated story to tell. ASK YOUR MONEY BACK! Buy a Griso, man. I love that muscle bike.

helicopterjim R.I.P. Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 OK but I am going to put my V10 Centauro motor in it and have the fastest griso of anyone!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al_roethlisberger Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 OK but I am going to put my V10 Centauro motor in it and have the fastest griso of anyone!!!!! 37084[/snapback] ...bah .... unless you bore the 4V(like the MGS-01), the latest 2V iterations(especially with mild massaging) are coming within striking range of the production 4V engine of Centauro/Daytona vintage, and are a good bit more tractable in the low/mid range according to most owners I've known that have both....

Guest davidb Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 is there a big bore kit for a v11 sport? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbiekb Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 Unless i'm missing something (i'm hoping Zeb or Paul chimes in on this), I can just simply place an order for a heated up Dynotec motor at pretty much any time and drop it into my chosen Guzzi of choice right ? I was salivaitng at the idea of one of those in a Nero Corsa with some OZ wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helicopterjim R.I.P. Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 Maybe someone will buy you one for your birthday, eh? Or at least the OZ wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbiekb Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 one would think that would be a perfectly reasonable gift for Ingrid to get me. Instead of my birthdya trip to the MV Agusta/Ducati/triumph/guzzi dealer i am stuck at home waiting for her to get back from showering (plumbers are working on our water) , apparently someone needs to stay home in case my surprise present shows up ? Maybe she did buy me some OZ wheels. if so i hope they're gold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al_roethlisberger Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 Robbie, it sounds like you lead a very "tough" life Happy Birthday And yes, you could by a "hopped up" motor, but I believe they are several thousand built, and if you went for a high-cam 4V motor, you'd have to do some creative fuel tank modifications to get it to fit in a V11 body from what I understand. But anything is "doable" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbiekb Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 ah see there you go just wait, i'll buy a Nero and turn it into a 4v behemoth just so that i can indulge in wheelie contests with jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
