Hi Meinolf Iam trying your links to check my Co,,, but thats not easy,,, for a guy who is not a computer guy... Is a donation the right way to go, to get going ? Im not a cheep charly, but what is a fair amount ? My computer is saying something like, cant open XDF files ? I would realy like to try this link, instead of starting the bike, its snow and cold up here in Norway at the time. A step by step for computer dummies like me would be perfect. Havent found that on the forum. A clutch job is like having a great desert compare to the interweb thing. Any advice will be highly apreciated. Thanks Tom

When I look at my I plate after about 30000m big difference to doccs plate, picture included hopefully. Any Else out there with loose friction material,,,, Better rivets ?? Inspection camera is on the list. Have 400m with the new clutch now, all perfect. A little heavier on the lever with 5 red springs, but good feeling and save trips to the Tarzan factory. Error file to big to upload.......[docc-edit: added photo of Tom's intermediate plate / hosted by ImgZeit] Tom. Norway

Docc I put in the original clutch, ended up paying around 750$ with the tools. Main point for me was an 8 hour drive, and then having all the parts I needed. Bike back on the road few hours later Tom. Norway

Can you guys rest my mind thinking about modifying push button instead of the rod,,, havent seen one, ( only for the 2plates ) but will it be weaken;d to much ? Soon finished docc. tom Norway

docc I found a guy over here making the tool to take off the gear hub, you need one. I bought one about 85-90$ tom

Led experience. Yes its bright as H, but like Luhbo said, a matched headlamp + bulb = expensive, will work. I installed 4 H7 Leds in my 93 Audi S4. the ones with fans seems to have shorter life. So 350$ later, and dont mention the hassle installing,,,, wires , boxes. It was great in the garage, except can bus error, wasnt supposed to happen with those bulbs. Had to install resistors,, and they are getting HOT, mening V HOT. The point, they only light up like 20feet in front of the car, and in rain, real bad. So Phillips EXTREME vision 130%, 55-60watt worked a lot better in my case. tom Norway (we need god light up here)

Like docc explained, no kranking, bullet connectors. Im absolutely no electrician, just a little common sense, and try to follow advice. Omron relays made my day, they even weigh more. Mouser.com. I made it, so will you !!

Fotoguzzi Took starter out yesterday, starter gear All dry, and no oilmess inside, no cat smell. No oil from weep Hole. Scud was explaing about the springs, 50 - 50 hard and soft, which In my case seems probably correct. Dont think the friction plates are gone after 49000km
-
Problem solved,,, at least I went thru all conections before my relays showed up. Wish there was a picture of everybodys face ( smile ) when things are solved. New omrons, fuel pump going Thanks for all input. Tom Norway

68C The file was to big to upload,,, meaning Im lost, but its made by Eureka chemical compay.

Hi 68C Lanolin oil, made from sheeps,, bæ bæ, made for US army, to protect ballast tanks on big ships. Its been used for undercoating cars to. I always used white acid free vaseline, but this oil doesnt dry, and it spreads in all directions, like I told Roy, spray it inside your car door, and it climbs upwards, impresses me, and of corse non conductive.
-
Roy GOT the switch out perty easy, open it without breaking it with old drilling hands, I will look at it tomorrow. Lanolin oil from bæ bæ,sheeps, invented for US armyfor ballast tanks on ships. It climbs, doesnt dry out, spray half of your CAR door, shortly it climbs to the top of the door. Thanks Roy
-
Thanks guys. Kiwi Roy, I will try to follow your advice, just waiting for my relays. S stand switch is gone for sure. Now Im trying to open the ignition switch, not funny.
-
Update. Did take my tank of today, went thru all connections with Lanolin, a little loose ground on the left side of the frame. But all the same, no noise from fuel pump. Ordered 15 Omron relays today from Mouser.com in Sweden 32nkr - about 3.20$ a piece. They had 672 in stock. The side stand switch is definitly not working, easy to check. But since my fuel pump is not priming,,, RELAY ? Hopefully relays at the end of the week.

Thanks to you all for replying to my problems. And to gstallons,,, clutch problem. I did change the fluid, the clutch feels fine when put in gear, no dragging, but experiened ONE time dragging at an intersection. I just turned the wheel at the clutch lever,,,,, problem gone... The clutch is slipping when Im heavy on the trottle in 4th - 5th - 6th gear. The little I have tried the bike,, I have felt a little shaking 2 times,, in 1th gear, taking of. Does this bike have the scary alu fly wheel ? What did I observe yesterday, my fluid in the clutch reservior has turned quite dark after about 70 miles. The last owner says he didnt have a problem with the clutch,, may be he was a 3 - 4000 rpm guy,, and I a 5 - 6000rpm guy. What clutch package are the most recomended today ? I will try with the relays first, my relaybase are all vaseline, and all the pins are visible. How about getting rid of clutch lever switch ? Problems shall be solved ! thanks again tom.

A little quidance into the Guzzi world please. Just imported a 2003 Le Mans Rosso Corsa from Denmark with 49000km or close to 30000 miles But she wouldnt fire up the next day, cranks over, some times a little faster, found this forum, and some reading. Messed around with the relays, and fuel pump going. Then fires up, but could stall after 10m. then I could ride for 50miles, no problem. Stops for coffe, 20min, not firing,,, playing with the relays, hear nothing from the fuel pump,,,, and after 10 trays, she fires. then stall after 500 yards, starts up again, and could run for 5miles, fires up again and run ok the rest of the trip. New AGM 13 Ah, in the prosess of ordering Omron G8HE, checked ground on tranny, ignition switch just oiled with lanolin, (non conductive) have to take it apart probably. The bike puts a smile on my face just looking at it, so any tips will be apreciated. The clutch is slipping to when I do use her,,,, later, probably single plate ? Thanks tom christiansen. Norway
