Hmm I don't know if I really want to answer that cause depending on who's it is someone is going to be a tad annoyed due the their bike being off the road and in pieces.

I guess someone will have a good reason for not joining next weeks cruisy ride

Well I know what it ain't and its not a Harley.(not and EVO or older anyway)

Too much metal for a jappa.

Looks to clean to be an old Guzzi.

Why have you dropped the sump pan Dangerous??
These usually aren't the bits that go wrong on Guzzi's (from my miniscule experience)
Must be something else??? But I think not.

Sorry not from down there so don't know who.

Yup lots of bolts and sump comes off....just to change oil filter on our beloved Guzzis.
It's called Italian logic....yup, a contradiction.....

Interesting system, but then I guess the bike would be built in such a way that one does not have to pull the engine out of the frame and spend half a day on the task.

I really should have picked it was the Guzzi when I saw http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=60367

Righto oh ya bunch a smart arsed bikers...
Its the guts of my V11, I was performing a oil filter change. Now unlike Pauls old dunger (MG blocks havent changed in 3 decades) The later MG has a large cap in the sump which you remove to acess the filter.
But the wankers that were working on the bike last did the filter up so tight I had to remove the sump just like the old days.

The oil filter in a Guzzi sits inside the engine just under the crank submerged in oil, weird aye so primative but very easy to work on as was setting the valve clearances.:2thumbsup
