Glad the press spared us the photo of La Bulb au Chocolate. But they just had to show us the X-ray of his Penis! Bloody Philistines! This photo reminds me of comic illustration of getting a bright idea....Perhaps evidence of intelligence of his Swadhisthana...I always knew mine had a mind of its own

I have searched the web, High and Low, for a full 15M ECU schematic, and all I could find was that it may exist at https://norme.orange.fiat.it/ and may have previously existed at http://norme.fiat.it/html/pdf/ Is anyone capable of obtaining it? This site was close, http://www.clubdelcoupefiat.com/tecnica.htm but not close enough I also found a PDF for a marelli 16F

I just had a good towing experience with Glenn's Cycle Tow. I highly recommend them to all San Diegans (or anyone needing a major tow in the US SouthWest) as they are truly a cut above. 24/7 619.454.4447 I am going to put their phone number in my toolkit. For most tows within San Diego it is a flat rate of $100, which sure beat the $65 plus $5/mile quote I got from a mostly car towing company. They were at my bike in less than half an hour(they are based in Escondido where I was stranded) They lifted it into the pickup with a crane. Strapped it securely (seven straps). And I learned one important thing from Butch (I presume the owner operator, but who is Glenn?): If you strap down suspension too tightly it can blow the seals!!! Of course some of you may say, 'well, DUH!!!' But for us ignorant mortals who thought tight meant secure, it was enlightening. The whole process was very methodical with straps tightened in sequence and released in counter sequence...more obvious stuff that I had never thought about. Now off to the garage to get more serious about my electrical charging problem.

A similar but safe solution would be to get some standard handlebars but mount them to a rubber mounted plate above the upper triple clamps. Sorbothane would be the ideal rubber Engineering it so that you don't lose steering control is the tricky part. The bolt bushings would have to have limited play, especially perpendicular to the steering axis. Perhaps if the plate were hinged on to the triple clamp so that allowable motion would only be vertical Guzzi makes rubber mounts, but I believe with a metal plate and sorbothane you could get better results.

A perfect example of relativist understanding (of two seemingly conflicting truths) at its best. BRAVO ENZO!!!

That would take a small miracle for Italy I'd say Brazil over Germany

I guess if you stretch your imagination, this might be the right smiley

Here is a funny one: Greg is such a big lame D I C K that even if he took V I A G R A, he'd still be a big lame D I C K!!!!

Why would one want LardEnzo repellant? Please don't beckon us to choose sides. I suspect you both could have handled the situation better and I hope y'all can bury the hatchet somewhere other than inside one another's craniums.

Plagiarist! PS Which do chicks dig more, your shaved head or your tongue?

"Why can't we just all get along?!?"

From the Tuneboy map, it only enrichens when cold. The brass fitting does have cooling fins, so maybe it runs cooler

That looks unhealthy. If yours was bridged like that, something is wrong with your bike, and should be fixed probably before riding But maybe the first service fixed it If it is like that on both cylinders you probably have one component that is seriously damaged like the engine positon sensor or the throttle position sensor of a bad relay or who knows what else.

I am not into chains and pain either. I think they are for posers and freaks who were abused as children,. Besides you can have so much more fun with belts and shafts, who needs chains Nog, you do wear leather and use other protection, right?

I change mine at every valve adjustment so that it gets a fresh crush washer and I don't have to risk over torquing the threads to get a good seal. Besides, a fresh electrode is a happy electrode. If you had irridium plugs, yah, you might as well risk your threads(it is not a huge risk, but still a risk) and get years out of the plugs. I just use the basic NGK recommended in the manual. Another place where you should "splurge" on your bike: When you change the fuel filter, change your fuel lines.

Booooooo!!!!!

Oh, perhaps you know from experience...You must have a Cycle Garden Guzzi Girl Calendar in the MPH customer restroom! PS you should keep your ammunition off the counter when TX is visiting the shop, unless you can afford to give it away

It probably won't make a difference. The ECU only modifies the map when the engine is below about body temperature (atleast according to tuneboy's interpretation of the map) (EDIT THAT IS WRONG. I READ THE CELCIUS READING AS IF IT WERE FARHENHEIT ) But I suppose if your sensor is bad, or the connection to it, it may always suspect the engine is cold. If the bike feels too rich(sluggish, worse especially at higher altitude) after warm up, the sensor could be bad If it feels too lean(metallic sound, pinging, surging, overheating, feels better at higher altitude), I'd look for another culprit.

FWIW The pinging on my tuning link tuned bike took about an increase ranging from 6 to 10 in a few cells around the effected ping zone that was about the same RPM as yours, but at greater throttle percentage. Looking for better, I went to tuneboy and reduced the ignition timing.

I only have the PCIII serial, but looking at the trim tutorial for the PCIII USB http://www.powercommander.com/tut_download.shtml There is no mention that it creates a second viewable table. It appears that to view the trim you must select a cell than go to the menu bar to Power Commander Tools and then to Cylinder Trim Values. But I am not sure if selecting the cells lets you modify the trim for each cell From their FAQ Does that mean that previously the cylinder trim effected all cells and not just the selected cell????

Nice description on why twins are a good thing

Nice Bike I think you should determine if it is draining through the ECU. Pulling the number one fuse when not riding may prevent your battery draining If it is draining pretty quickly I suspect using the optimate may help keep the battery more charged but not quite fully charged. An investment in an Ultimizer, or equivalent, may be a good idea I have the odyssey optimizer and it seems to keep me going pretty well. It comes with a quick attachment plug and mounts on the wall of my garage next to where I park.

Who knows? It may have been GOOD luck for the husband

You can also cut a tiny slit in the grommet and that will allow enough air in, and if you ever tip over, the fuel will leak out a little bit slower than no grommet, and less fuel will evaporate into the warming global troposphere
