  1. No, but the salvage value for an 01 is $2850. The fast bikes/burnout/extreme riders steal these bikes, do their crazy stunts, destroy the bikes and move on to the next one (you didn't think they use their own bikes for those underground videos did you?). It happened to Paul Quadras Sport 1100i two years ago. It was pretty bent up from being wheelied over backwards. It didn't even make it very far from where he lives in S.F. The bike was totalled. Sorry I don't have better news. Yours may turn up unscathed. I certainly hope so.
  2. Granted the Breva 1100 engine is a bit long in tooth for an MGS02, it would be better than nothing. If there is to be an MGS02 with that engine though, it will have to be an entirely new chassis to accomodate the newer (hopefully better) six speed transmission and the shorter engine block which will affect the front-rear weight bias of the bike. In short, I don't think it'll happen anyway. If Piaggio is clever, they'll get Danilo Mojoli involved again and revive the water pumper.
  3. Carl's Guzzi schematics will be going away towards the end of June while I move to Oklahoma. They will show up somewhere else - eventually. I don't know where, and I don't know when. Warts, errors, crossed lines and all, now is the time to download what you want if think you'll need them during the "off" months.
  4. It's in Oklahoma in storage and I can't get to it until mid August anyway. JRT - are you serious? I'm not sure that it's the best looking fairing for a V11 Sport and it is really large. Kind of old fashioned even. I think it has an eight track in it...
  5. The tach takes its signal from the ECU. There are a couple of connectors in series with the tach on the V11 Sport. One of them may be your problem although the only time I've ever experienced the connectors as a problem was when I was putting the tank back on my Sport 1100i and somehow separated the connector. It could just be a dead tach too
  6. Yeah, I noticed him too! I envy the Euro contingent their proximity to great bike racing.
  7. The Evoluzione thingy (same as Mike's GB module) is a DC-DC converter. It took the battery voltage and boosted it to something like 17V or so (very cloudy recollection). As an input to the entire ECU system, this probably wouldn't be good (for the ECU especially) and it probably wasn't all that kind to the injectors and maybe even the fuel pump. For the coils, it probably didn't really do any harm. Depends upon where and how it was wired into the system. I'd say, coils only - ok, anything else - rethink just what it is you're trying to accomplish. Even with coils, there may be a problem. If you take the transformer ratio of a coils input to output, it should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 1666:1 if you're getting 20 kilovolts from a 12 volt saturation voltage. A change to a 17 volt saturation voltage is going to yield an appreciable 28 kilovolts - but the coil insulation may not be capable of handling a voltage that's 8 kilovolts outside of its nominal specification. It may take a while to break down too, rather than doing it right away (such is the nature of things high voltage - take it from me, I used to be an electronics tech on an 18 megavolt linear accelerator). If it broke the coil right away, you'd just be sitting there fuming about having to pay a ridiculous price for another coil. If it broke in the middle of nowhere, you'd do just a little bit more than fume...
  8. Wow, the dual silencer version has the cross-over waaayyyy back there!
  9. Some of the MSD's are quite power hungry and the somewhat puny MG system may not be able to keep up with the electrical load. You'd just have to do your specifications appropriately. However, the advantage to the dual plug stuff is that the Guzzi combustion chamber (as I understand it) is not a very ideal one and it's difficult to get the flame front cleanly across the entire volume. That's where the dual plugging excels. Just doing a better job of lighting off the mixture in one spot will probably not give as good of results as lighting off the mixture from two locations. I suppose the best analogy would be burning down a forest. It'll burn down faster if each end of the forest is set on fire at the same time vs just one end. MSD's probably work best in combustion chambers where the spark plug is central to the ignition volume like on the 4 valve engines. And again, since I am by no means well acquainted with this stuff, I could be completely wrong.
  10. No experience with one. They were offered by Evoluzione for a while, I don't think they do anymore. As far as running them on a standard Guzzi (the GB may be wired differently), I think I would modify the wiring so that the voltage amplifier was not running to the injectors and the fuel pump.

Without going into Adobe elements and subtracting the background stuff, it doesn't make for an entirely good image. Interesting how the "code" buttons will encapsulate this stuff and yet the code for a "smiley" still gets through. My guess is that using the code button just substitutes a non-breaking space for a standard one so that multiple spaces don't get collapsed into a single one. I should probably try to re-size it though. Kinda large as is.
  12. Keep the rear box upright or it'll decorate your floor with oil. Another tip from the slow learners corner...
  13. Well, I did say shouldn't, and this is a Guzzi, so against all probable logic - anything becomes possible. Now, if I could just find that old electronics encylopedia, I could look up the impedance of synthetic air...
  14. All the other fuse circuits shouldn't have diddley to do with the ECU fuse, but you got me to thinking (a habit I seem to have gotten out of) on the TPS. I don't need to look for smooth operation of the TPS (and indeed, cannot do so with my DVM as that is a task best accomplished by an older analog voltmeter - which I don't have), but by watching the voltage on the TPS wiper, if it suddenly jumps to zero volts while twisting the throttle, that would logically be the culprit. Oh crap. Logically. This is a Guzzi isn't it? The fuse is probably blowing because I'm not using genuine synthetic air in the tires. Actually, the fuse blew five times yesterday. I lost count. Once was at a very low speed. This is weird stuff.
  15. Six lines??? I'm flabbergasted. Couldn't do that myself. However, setting the "Guzzi" eagle in "code" mode and setting up the spacing sort of clears up what Dave was trying to show. It took me a while to figure out that preserving spaces and such required something more than just hoping the browser would show it correctly.
  16. blew two more fuses going home. No more riding FrankenSport until it starts to behave.
  17. I have no idea what anorak is but I do remember (vaguely) getting blitzed on 3 shots of Absinthe once. And only once.

  19. Yup, I had an Amstrad. First computer I ever bought. 2" floppy drive. Weird little system running CPM. That must have been somewhere around 1986 or so, can't remember exactly. I have a friend here in town whose daughter designed the Macintosh !!CX. She gave him the engineering prototype as a gift (with the full 8Mb's of memory back when that was worth about $8000). No serial number, but her initials are on the motherboard in with the circuit traces.
  20. Wanna buy a Rabid Transit fairing?...
  21. I wouldn't attribute this to Guzzi "character". It sounds like someone mixed up some parts at Veglia when they put the speedometer together. Like the wrong faceplate. When it got sent to the calibrator, they just looked at the faceplate, saw "MPH" and started magnetizing the eddy current disc to make it read correctly. It probably took a whole lot less magnetizing than normal, but by God, they got it to read correctly! It's pretty likely that they don't check the tripmeter as they're more concerned with the gauge accuracy and it doesn't take too many "miles" to set the gauge so there wouldn't be much to read on the tripmeter even if they did check it. They're bound to run on the assumption that the gear set matches the faceplate, but apparently, just occasionally, sometimes, it isn't so
  22. I rode the Fuse Blowing Bastard to work today - it's my birthday dammit and I wanted to ride something with more panache than the California. Blew the ECU fuse twice. Once on a very narrow mountain road with loads of crazy California cage drivers blowing by at about 50 mph a foot away. Okay, so now I know my heart still works. Wished like hell I could figure what's causing the fuse to blow. New TPS on order.
  23. I'll bet it wouldn't. I've had one in the shed for two years and still don't have the cajones to actually see how it would look on a V11 Sport. Somehow, I just don't think it would look right. I'm going to suggest looking at Pichler Motorcycle fairings.
  24. Hey... wait a minute. I used the Classic under Mac OSX on my Mac G5 dual 2Ghz computer with 2.5Gb of memory and 350Gb's of storage. It's got Yellow Dog Linux on it too and the 23" Apple Cinema screen. Oh how I long for my old Retrographics 640 terminal or a Tektronix 4025. Not.
  25. That's probably two of us here that have ever had an Amstrad.
