fubar guzzi

want to buy 96/2001 any condition for parts

Evening Mr. Low Ryder,in relation to the fuel injection(from hell)the temp sensor was the 1st thing changed,after that everything.This year I didn't make the Okie or Cedar Vail,I bought a Honda to get around on-----next year I'll take that just so I can make it there+back!!!!!!!!!!!

Morning all,thank you Chuck you summed it up well----no offense taken,you tell it like it is.The MY ecu is set up much the same as the oem ecu,the 98 model has little room for computer repair while the MY ecu is much the same as a latter model, it must be set up by lap top+ there is no manual fuel adjustment as on the 98 model.The 98 is different from all other models(97-99 etc.). Jefferies MY ecu will explain all that is needed to set up ecu----I CANT OPERATE THE COMPUTER--- I can set it up turn it on thats it----what I need is someone that is familiar with guzzidiag+can operate a lap top----now,forget guzzidiag+go to Jefferies MYecu it will explain all needed to know,both systems are VERY similar.I bought a new Dell lap top RK said it wouldn't connect so he used his own,that's when he found the oem ecu to be defective,time did not allow further exploration. THANKS TO ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT

Hello Doc,bike runs-starts everything---it just does"not run right,it is not roadable.

I've tried two years to make my 98 EV roadable, the problem is the ICU----I cannot figure how to do Guzzidiag.I changed out the ICU for a MY ICU so now all that should be necessary is to connect the computer to Guzzidiag/motorcycle. I have computer +all connections ,I cannot do this ,so, is there someone in the Tenn. area that can bail me out????????? I will trailer the bike to desinated place third week Feb.2022

Tomorrow I'll try again,I doubt the tps sensor is bad unless I broke it over torquing it.The shaft is ok I played with that a while back trying to get an extra notch like a timing chain,however the tps is not in anyway similar to a timing chain.The wiring harness that I use I totally trust ,but I will check it just to see! thank for all you do.

Took it all apart + the throttle blade is open all the way(87)-----volts are0.000 open/0.000 closed-------Mv are 381.0open/229.5 closed What's next to test ???

YEP!!!

Well boys,now are we havin fun!!! The tps is new with two miles on it----the one I replaced was nine months old with about 20 mi. on it,the 2 I bought came from ca cycle the other 3 came with the bike from the po,of those 1 was the Davidson type+ one I took apart just to see how easy it is to do-----trust me on this one it is very difficult to take apart. I sent to England for the tps cable testing harness,I think it would be difficult to screw that up ! My lovely ev has42000 mi.,of witch I did 10,000 myself,+I would guess was brokedown 12 times minimum (I've owned this magnificent machine 26 months . Tomorrow I will start over as I have done many times before,starting with oil change,probably # 12 with about 30 mi. of riding. Fuel finds its way into the oil + that isn't good,(I'm talking a quart/quart +half over full). As always thank"s for the advise-----I try all tips

Yes Phil youv"e got it!!! At wot I get o.ooov???? or about330mv ???---- I can adjust the stop screw cept the idle is very high(3000). Took it out today (2 miles)it ran ok,have to wait for warmer weather to road test----Now the tps is clockwise max +,seems to me it should be the other way about 10mm from the end going counter clock wise------confused yet???? thanks for your help

I've worked all day on the tps---- I twisted the tps clockwise as far as possible + a little more,I got my 157.3 on the tps---I didn't fair so well with setting the stop screw,I gave it all it was good for but nowhere near the 378 I need. I started engine + found idle to be about 3k---turning left stop screw c/clockwise 4 turns put it close to1200 rpm as idle ----getting it sorted I think I've got it,until I can ride it I won't know for sure if its fixed. Last I checked tps was 220mv----It runs good in the garage I hope I cured the 6mp gallon problem. Thank you all for posting + your help

Docc.I've tried that + it doesn't work. I'm thinking I'm rotating the tps too much at a time.I've had it set several times before but not this time.The tps should not be rotated to the max(I belive). Lucky Phil,I'll get back to you in a couple hours gstallons----- you hit the nail on

I just finished this post + hit the wrong button so I would guess it's filed into cyberspace??? I'll make this one much shorter===98 EV seems I can't adjust tps to 157mv I only get 133 + run out of space.If I remove one holding screw from the tps I can squeek a little more assuming I settle on 133 I can only get about 330mv to set the throttle stop I should have 378mv here.Please take me by the hand + take me through this====I onl;y bite GUZZI'S nothing else,unlike my dog,thats a story for some other time!!! Thank you

The speed-0 is just a plain one,no gps. I like to use the maps + stuff plus the fact i can't see the little square box that indicates everything.I had a horrorable time installing the Speed Hut stuff, if I was to do again I would rebuild the old gauges.However Speed Hut is very good about warranty work so what the hell. I am presently TRYING to figure out a way to install a fuel gauge----if it can be done I will use a Speed Hut gauge for that because they will custom build it for me. Have a great weekend Docc

Hi Doc,you have an inquiring mind, 1st time both speed-o and tac had defective control board issues ----this time ,I don't know as yet,it's only been 6 weeks but,don't go away there's more -----both units do not light the face,the tac totally does not work,+something else I can't recall at the moment +one of the little square things that(do not) make the instruments light up,all but caught fire.I only have 4 years of warrantee left,I hope they can hurry !!! Other than that -----Life Is Good!!!!!
