Looking at the datasheet for the TE Superseal 3 way connector, the dimensions do not match the Delphi connector for the TPS on the Caspers breakout harness. Looking further into Delphi, I see this Metri-Pack connector, but can't find a dimensioned drawing. This does appear to be the correct connector for our TPS. https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Aptiv-formerly-Delphi/12162280?qs=TcI%2BB%2FoBdJs3bmRc88sY3Q%3D%3D Best price, on the female connector, I have found (even has the green seal): https://www.eficonnection.com/home/product/delphi-3-way-black-metri-pack-150-2-sealed-female-connector-2

Ah, yes. That extra relay is so well mounted and aligned I did not realize it had been added!

I am glad we not the only ones to pull off seats to connect diagnostics . . . Which always gathers an interested crowd . . . -
Nineteenth South'n Spine Raid 2023 Tennessee USA
docc replied to docc's topic in Meetings, Clubs & Events
Even four weeks out, I ran out of time for the Kentucky SpineRaid. Got that sorted now. I will need a new rear tire before the SSR XIX. And, well, you know . . . that slippery slope that goes with a tire change . . . -
What is this secret 20A/35A relay, @MartyNZ ?

Once again, @Kiwi_Roy's sage wisdom:

Very cool! Thanks, @gstallons! Even paying a few bucks for a new connector to get the seal could be well worth it. After treating all of the harness connectors under the tank with Caig DeOxit, the bike would not start. Taking the tank back off , I found one of the large connectors reluctant to go back together (from @PJPR01's post, now I know why!). Used a carpenter's clamp to reseat the connector and zip-tied. Yes, I would like the replace that seal, as well . . .

Lots of relay discussion dating way back to the beginning. The very first action my dealer provided for mySport, when new, was a larger Start relay (#1/front). The early V11 (1999-2001) uses the weaker (N.C.) contacts of that relay to supply all power to Relay#2 (headlights ETC). Later V11 send all of this through the Ignition Switch (another kind of potential problem). Under-rated relays have been known to fail in the V11, perhaps especially #5 (Fuel/Ignition) in the back of the stack; likely why the previous owner of Art's Sport has tagged these two relays. "Best" relay currently available is probably the Pickers Components rated 25/30. The CIT 20/30 is probably fine, yet on the early Sport that 25 amp N.C. rating on the Pickers seems good insurance . . .

Your relay mounts have been mucked with. Plus, the "STA-RTR" relay is normally in the front. Might still be, since labeling the relay itself is bad procedure as soon as a relay gets moved.

Nineteenth South'n Spine Raid 2023 Tennessee USA

Perfetto! It will be fun to gather at the pavilion and try to recount all the different Guzzis Bill Hagan has ridden to South'n SpineRaids since the first in 2004 . . . -
Perhaps perfect timing . . .

What year is the long tank Sport, @Guzzi-in-Vancouver ?

How about a red tank protector? https://www.motorstock.it/en/tank-guard/5259-moto-guzzi-tank-guard-red.html

Plausible deniability.

Nice improvement! Takes the black valve covers back toward the originals (shown here with a little extra red on the Joe Kenney headguards) . . . Seems your "black accent" silver Sport already has the exhaust hangers changed to red . . .

A triple-digit parts bike! Know that the clutch/flywheel of your Tenni and the LeMans differ and the "clatter" with clutch action will be inverse . . .

Maybe more like, "undeniable patina " . . .

So, @Tomchri, you think you will change the fork rake back to original on that hyper-Greenie?
