I see Chuck, and guess RK would have checked the crank sensor for swarf? Pretty sure the myECU would still use the crank sensor? if me I would try going back to an original ECU and start with the basics. The 98 EV was a pretty reliable system, no?

On the 98 computer box there is a trim dial in the housing, may be covered by a plug. If someone messed with that the ride ability can really suffer. About 1/4 turn in the wrong direction can make it buck stutter or seam like your running out of gas. It should run ok even if the TPS is at 133 but if you can't get it to the 157 number maybe your base setting is wrong. Did you set TPS with both throttle stops fully out? you can get the Fuel Injection supplement at thisoldtractor.com which can show you how to read fault codes that can be flashed on a small red LED usually under a side cover or near the battery. On the cal 1100 the red light was on the dash. one other thought and easy to check. The crank position sensor (right side of bell housing) can accumulate "swarf" pull it out and clean that off, there might be a shim or two under the flange so don't loose that.

Thanks for the price Pressure,I have similar from a Centauro, in nice condition, just in case someone gets interested I'll sell for less than that.

Thankyou for your expertise Docc.. I'll be sure to not sell to anyone with a V11. what I have is a DS from a Centauro

Care to say how much it cost? Since I have a used one I'd like to sell And could use some guidance on the value.

$5,000usd https://sondorsx.com/pages/metacycle

True but I'd rather know if my battery is charging over the oil temp, when is the last time you heard of a Guzzi with too hot oil?

A volt meter would be more useful.

I like the Motard more.

For reference, here is the Scurra FW

I. Pretty sure it will but I'm not an expert on that.

I have a complete clutch and flywheel from a Centauro if anyone is interested. full clutch with FW 8 pounds w/ring gear 11# pretty sure it would work in any big twin accept the 95-1998 California's with the flywheel sensor.

Just a reminder, the front zerk fitting on the drive shaft is tricky to get at. But don't ignore it. get a Roper plate right away if it doesn't have one yet. im 5'10" had 2" bar risers and it fit me perfect. Sadly I traded it for a Miata in a weak moment. But I got the better deal, later sold the Miata for a bigger profit that should have been illegal. then got a Buell, torq monster and it had a similar character to the Guzzi. I'm waiting for the perfect V11 at the perfect price to get back on someday. notice the chrome, None! Oh wait the rim around the tack and speedo was chrome I think. Oh, I added those beautiful chrome mufflers to shine it up just right.

They could call it the Rhoad Island.

If you both have the same bank like Wells Fargo you can just do a transfer. If not the same bank I'm pretty sure you can send money with your bank via something called Zelle or Venmo. there is also wire transfer from Western union. Escrow.com will hold the money until your agreed upon terms are met and delivery takes place, then you ok the payment.

Thanks for a good laugh

Are you sure? Scrap around with a screw driver or punch. Sometimes they are hard to see.

Why not just get an after market disc?

I think I said the price was $6k. It's in Minnesota and the V7 in background is an 850t tarted up as a V7 Sport. he wanted something like $8k for that, I thought way too high. Ive kind of lost track of the bikes and guy, maybe can find out did they ever sell if your really interested at $6,000 send me a pm

Disagree, my V11 Bassa was a real nice bike for a cruiser, true not a sport bike but beautiful in its own way. I had two in white as well..

Fasteners on a Guzzi are nothing, try doing a belt change on a Buell.. I seem to remember at least 13 different tools to do the job.

Kill switch?

"briefly up to 6000 rpm" why just briefly? These motors love to rev.
