  1. Finally got around to downloading the GuzziDiag software, and decided to embark upon the standard tune-up as described by @docc on these pages. TPS was reading somewhere close to 300mv so definitely required some adjusting to reach the desired 157mv spec. Discovered a fault present for the air-temp sensor and figured I might as well get one here prior to pulling the tank. In hindsight I should have ordered a fuel filter as well, but pulling the tank really wasn't too bad. Best part of the tune-up was finally getting my idle down around 1-1,000 RPMS and outside of a slight hiccup around 3k r's she's running damn good. Inquired with Beetle on a MAP and hope that will fix the stumbles and improve the rideability even further. Can't say just how much I appreciate all the great information on this thread. It has made my V11 ownership experience that much better! Cheers all.

  3. Hi everyone, I'm a proud member of the group and also run a store in which we are bringing more upgrades for Guzzi models as time goes by. The product can be found in the following link https://elefantadventurebikes.com/moto-guzzi/moto-guzzi-stelvio-clutch-slave-cylinder/ We now have the Oberon Performance Clutch Slave Cylinders mostly for the Stelvio but they are also compatible with the following models: Moto Guzzi Audace 1400 2015-2017 Moto Guzzi California 1400 2012-2017 Moto Guzzi Eldorado 1400 2015-2018 Moto Guzzi Griso 1200 2007-2017 Moto Guzzi Norge 1200 2010-2016 Moto Guzzi Sport 1200 2008-2013 Moto Guzzi Stelvio 1200 2008-2017 Thanks for looking and let me know if anyone has questions!

  4. I did... The dreaded 150 miles limit which I have tested several times in the remote area of Texas. 200 miles would really be ideal.

  5. I haven't done it yet (no not that, playing with the map...) but I've read a lot about it, and spoken to Beard, author of Guzzidiag, about it. You need Tunerpro only if you want to alter your map. Reading it out is done with IAW reader, and flashing a new map is done with IAW writer. What you didn't mention: make really sure your battery is good, particularly when writing. Better still, connect a charger. Also make sure your laptop will last the distance. Better still, use the power supply. If something (bike or computer) runs out of power whilst writing, you risk turning your ECU into an attractive paper weight.

  6. In the schematic I'm looking at, it appears that the taillight and the turn signals have a wire in common. That is the wire that comes from the ignition switch and supplies power to both fuse 6 and fuse 7. Fuse 6 supplies the taillight and fuse 7 supplies the the turn signals. You could check for 12V at the input side of either fuse (red and gray wire in the schematic). If no power is present at the fuse, you may need to clean/inspect the wiring in the ignition switch.

  8. Thanks for the quick reply @audiomick. I definitely don't want to alter the map so sounds like no need for the Tunerpro for my purposes. Good call on the battery; I will throw it on the tender overnight and then keep it charging tomorrow for both the read and write operations. Fingers crossed this map does the trick because outside of the slight stumble issue this bike runs like a champ!

  9. I don't know if many have watched the talk show, but if they did at least for the frst few seconds, then hopefully they will now know how to say Guzzi the right way!!!!

  10. After several days of riding, I am happy to report the tachometer works like new, looks like new, and is steady at all sustained rpm; the speedometer is a bit fluctuating at low speed, which I am guessing is due to the cable not turning smoothly in its sheath. As soon as speed goes above 20 mph, the phenomenum stops. So far, I am very happy with the Quota. Of course, it is not as smooth as the V11. It is really jerky in 1st gear. The autonomy seems to be better than when I came back from Arizona. But that needs to be confirmed. I managed 47 mpg to and from Brenham.

  12. You did screw out all the screws and everything to make sure the butterfly was really completey closed? Just asking, because that sounds about like what I saw before someone reminded me to completely screw out the fiddly and hard to reach throttle stop screw.

  13. https://elefantadventurebikes.com/moto-guzzi/moto-guzzi-stelvio-clutch-slave-cylinder/ This link is to the Stelvio /etc part. @EAB, can you source a clutch slave for the V11 Sport/LeMans spine frame series? Otherwise, can this slave be fitted to the V11 6speeder and use the extra hydraulic connection for the bleeder upgrade line that brings the bleeder up under the seat of a V11 SpineFrame like the later CARC bikes?

  16. As much for my own clarification as yours My understanding of circuits discussed: Assuming you find no power going to fuses 6 and 7, and even though the Hi/Low beams work, the IGN switch could still be suspect because the wire pair (1 and 2) work thru a different contact than wire pair 3 and 4. A broken wire (or dirty contact) on 3 or 4 would cut power to both the tail light and the turn signals. I don't think relays are involved as they are not used in the tail light or turn signal circuit. The schematic I'm looking at may not apply to your bike, and I'm often wrong.

  17. From memory.. always suspect with me I fixed one like that with a broken solder joint at the ignition switch. Green wire, I think..

  18. To test for power from ign switch to fuses: remove both fuses from fuse holder. turn on key. set meter to DC volts touch black lead to negative battery terminal. then, one at a time, touch red lead to each fuse terminal. 1 side of each fuse should have 12v present. If not, you may have ign switch issue.

  19. Before you start , do your headlamps , horn , dimmer switch , etc. work? There may be a problem at the 10 pin connector going to the switchgear . Don't worry about this yet. Alright. It is time for you to start thinking . * # 1 new flasher installed . still no flasher. Get your test light** and see a. w/KOEO , is there 12v at one of the flasher unit connectors ? Y. apply 12v to the other connector (orange wire) to see if all the turn signal lamps light up. they should. If so you still have a bad flasher unit. Install a good known flasher and retest. N . go back to F 7 and check for B+ at both ends of the fuse. B+ ? Y , the problem is between the F 7 and flasher connector. * w/ea step , verify, verify, verify. You don't want to proceed until you are sure you pass/fail your current test. You don't want to waste your time rushing through this procedure. ** use a test light . Not a LED test light . You will learn about them later.

  23. Forgot to mention that yesterday I got to sit on a Guzzi V8 that was in the small Piazza where the statue of Carlo Guzzi resides. This Piazza was where they had a display of about 20 old Guzzi race bikes and some were started up for the benefit of the crowd including the V8 and the 500 Bicylindrica. I cheekily asked the custodian of the V8 if I could get an image of me sitting on the bike and he looked a little shocked that someone would ask such a thing but then happily agreed. So on it I sat and my wife got a few images. This is the bike.

  24. Hey Phil - That looks like a great adventure. I got close to Mandello once, but not close enough. I had a rented BMS GS - and chased a Moto Guzzi Stelvio up the Stelvio pass. Gearing up for a 500 mile ride across central Nevada tomorrow on my Stelvio.

  28. The weathers been so bad here, as summer rapidly recedes in the rear view mirror, that I was confined to the workshop this weekend. Greenie sump & timing chain covers off for powder coating, Roper plate to be fitted, tatty belly pan, side panels, fender etc to be resprayed…just hoping the paint shop does their job with color matching this Guzzi green

  35. I purchased S563 new in Mexico City around 2005. It now lives in Quebec, Canada with ~ 4 000 KM, all original. "World" version, not US compliant. I have changed the transmission shifter spring (~ 1000KM) and the rear wheel spacer (~ 3000 KM) due to related problems. Many thanks to the forum sponsors and members; great information and advice over the years
