Hi, my name is AL. I was happy to find this message board! I've been riding for the last 30 years, and I guess I've had about 20 bikes. Just had my Lemans CX100 delivered five days ago. Was given to me by the leader of our old motorcycle club The Shrews. It needs a lot of work, but I'm excited about the project. I believe the bike has been sitting for about 20 years. It had a blown final drive from what I understand, and the guy who took the final drive, and was supposed to repair it, ended up losing it. Starting to do my research on what parts may be compatable from other models, so I can first take care of the Final Drive problem. Got three books delivered yesterday which should be helpful in the project, Guzziology, Haynes Manual, & CX100 parts list/diagrams. So far I looking at a 2001 final drive assembly, which I think will fit, but unsure about driveshaft compatability & lenght. But hope I can figure these things out with the books. I will make any final drive questions a separate post in the Tech section, if the books do not answer my questions, and probably will. But since I'm already into my Guzzi story, and if you have any general suggestions, I'd definately like to hear them. I'll be posting some pictures of the bike in my next posting.
Thanks, AL
