Hi Brian. Do you have any pictures of your bike? I love Cafe Converts. Mine is at: http://barrpublishing.com/lemansvert.html Although it has a sidecar on it...

Hi Brian! That must make at least 3 of us in this group. No electrical problems - my main gripe is that, whatever fuel I put into it, there's always pinging,...
Are those bubs on the Lemans-Vert? I'm looking for pipes for my bike... trying to figure out what things cost and where to get them? I'm a Guzzi Newbie......
Did you try a Lead additive ? i've been mixing in Octane Boost and a Lead additive.. or substitute... and my pinging went down a little... mine was only...
What's all this talk of go-fast shenanigans for Converts? Are they really cafe-racer contenders? Anyway - guess what, the Convert isn't the first 2 wheeler...
I've never changed a Convert clutch. The clutch is definitely the weak link in the Convert powertrain. It's a multiplate dry clutch and requires removing and...
How can you tell your clutch slips? The converter slips too - can we tell the difference? Why would the mechanical clutch slip? Surely it hardly does any work?...
One thing I found about the exhaust on a convert is if it's too loud it sounds like s@#^. I had a 850 T3 that sounded good with loud mufflers, but the...
-yea.. i was looking at those mufflers... and figured they wouldn't sound all that great.. but the price is right... i'm hoping they get the nice lafranconis...
My convert is no cafe racer, however I live in the state of West Virginia where it is twisted turns to get anywhere. ( I love it ) I ve had many bikes...
The only time I use the clutch is to back up with the bike running I even wired around the clutch switch. I just hit the starter and when it fires i'm off...
But, that of itself wouldn't improve pinging, would it? Are you still using standard ignition timing point? I fitted elec ign also, and it improved starting...
Hi Foxy, It is quite good isn't it? I'm no racer, but find the Convert is easy to ride. I think that can be translated as good handling! The only thing lacking...
That is one neat looking bike! I am not a convert owner yet. I have 2002 White EV that I am setting up for touring. The Lemansvert would be a neat bike for...
Well... I love my convert... didn't think i would like a Automatic... but it's great!!! I was in roanoke with mine 2 weeks ago... welcome to the club.... ...
