Guest cfc Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 Has anyone had any experience with "Magni" fairings of any kind. They look good. Just bought my freinds '01 V11 sport (only 1700 miles. 1st Guzzi was a '70 Ambassador I let go ten years ago and forgot how much I love guzzi). The uncontrolable desire to constantly #^@% with suff and modify, drew me to Magni. Any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve G. Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Having never put one on my bike I can't tell you the fitment quality. I have seen a couple around where I live and can confirm that "1", I love the look, and "2", the green color does not match very well, and the handlbar is quite lower than the stock early V11s. Ciao, Steve G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gio Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 As an actual owner, 1. I have no hesitation in recommending the Magni fairing (was a little tricky to fit) 2. In fact the stock green is a perfect match... Gio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big unit Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 I have the Magni fairing fitted and I love it. The riding position for me is not radical, I'm 5'11. The black matches perfectly with my 2000 V11 I have clip on mirrors fitted. I bought the bike with the fairing already fitted and this was a good selling point to me. I think it gives the V11 a modern classic look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steve_W Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 I think it gives the V11 a modern classic look. Agreed, and I think Ducati wishes their new Sport Classics looked as good! I noticed what look like Staintune mufflers. How's the sound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's the sound? 34301[/snapback] They are Staintunes and sound great, not to loud but have a nice deep tone which I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oldtoolie Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 I have the Magni on my V11 -- installed by previous owner. Looks great and coulour matches. Warning: the mirrors were not installed and I tried to do it myself. Had to drill the windscreen to do so and ended up with cracks. Wish I had installed bar end mirrors instead.

Guest davidb Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 I sent mine back. there was two different colors of green (they told me later) and I have the light one. fit was terrible as the plastic wind screen holes were really stressed. I was going to try to repaint and match it, but the paint was 175$ and the fairing was 300$. it wasn't worth it to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
