Spring broke on my '03 around 30k mile mark. It has the correct boss size. Took mine for its first spin last night. It isn't getting the attention it deserves.
I think anyone interested better hurry up. I do not know the owner or the bike but you never know, that could change.
That's pretty slick.Things to remember on the Scura: 1) Single Plate Clutch, unless already changed.2) Factory suspension setting were for a 150 lbs person and universally criticized. If you weigh more, you'll have to spend some money on springs and such. (this was mostly fixed on the later Ohlins-equipped bikes)
Kevdog...Your bike is the twin to my recent purchase. Got to start putting some miles on mine to catch up to others on the forum. I picked up mine two weeks ago with just 3175 miles on it. One thing...do you still have the original speedo? I know the ITI's are prone to failure. I contacted FBF via your info and still waiting for a reply.
There is something about a dual exhaust that just looks so beautiful. The single garbage cans hanging off bikes these days look out of place and you might was well put a sticker on them that says "waste management", you just need a lifting thingy to take away the recycling.That is my one big dislike on the Norge although the exhaust isn't too humongous, it still gives the bike an unbalanced look.
I don't know, spine frames just seem like girls bikes to me. Yea, sure they have strong motors, and swoop sexy lines, but that's what girls like. They want things that look good, so it happens to go good is not really a big deal. Seems like most the spine frame guys I now are just a "bit lite in the loafers," if you know what I mean. I'm not trying to say anything bad, but they do seem to be polishing their tanks an awful lot, just saying.Jealousy is a bitch...
Like almost everyone here, I weigh barely over 150.
"bit lite in the loafers,"
Well, the deal is sealed and I am the owner of an almost new 2002 V11 Lemans! Unfortunately, the fly and ride wasn't looking good schedule wise so I am having it shipped. The shift spring is still a potential issue, and I will need to decide if I should fix it preemtively or hope for the best. Thanks for all the offers of assistance and info on the spring issue. I'll post some pics me a ride report when she arrives. Woo hoo!Spam alert: This does mean that my 2007 Griso will be for sale if anyone is interested.
Good luck with your '02 LeMans! On a humorous note I was the one trying to buy his '97 Sport 1100i. As stated he only wanted to sell one of his Guzzi's. You snooze you lose. No hard feelings though...all the best with your V11.David
I was/ am a little concerned about the shift return spring issue, but decided it probably isn't a major issue.
David, I am glad there are no hard feelings. He preferred to sell the Lemans, or so it seemed to me. He said he had a pending sale sale on the Sport, so I acted fast. I was/ am a little concerned about the shift return spring issue, but decided it probably isn't a major issue. I am really looking forward to owning a spine frame.
you can probably set most of that concern aside unless your touring and don't carry the spare. just ride, if it breaks ride home in what ever gear you're in
David - You still looking? There's a Cafe Sport in Hollister, CA (South of San Francisco).http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/mcy/5127890761.htmlWant me to ride it to your house for you?
