[Chris von Stein]

Icant change the riding mode from Turismo on my 2016 Audace. Anyone else have this issue?

Funny
Last night I took mine out of Turismo and into Veloce just to make sure it still works being I've only used it once since I installed the GTM kit. Today my arms hurt and my voice is hoarse

Have you tried with the bike running, but stopped and in neutral ? Peter

Did you manage to change it? basically with the engine running give the starter button two quick presses the first press highlights the mode and the second press changes it. It can be done while riding but the throttle has to be closed.

The Starter button? Wont that just grind the starter? I havent tried that. I do it with the odometer showing right?

Once running the starter button is no longer able to be activated . You must push it when running to change modes . Peter
It sounds kinda creepy , but that's how it's done , grit your teeth and try it !

Please… For the millionth time… Invest some personal effort here… Read your Owners Manual!!!

It doesn't matter what is showing, odo, time etc. etc. just start the bike and after a couple of seconds press the starter button again and you will see the engine mode highlighted, press it again to change it, to the next one and give it another second or two to be accepted.

Got it, thank you very much!

Hi Scott , many thanks for the info . I’ve gone through my manual back and forth till I’m blue in the face and no mention anywhere of the above pages . Also the page numbers and appendix don’t even correspond . Very weird I’d say . So once again thanks for the posting that cleared some concerns for me . Mines a 21 Audace FYI

I don’t know what to tell you friend. I certainly didn’t make a fake Owners Manual.

I recommend that you download the correct manual in PDF format, for your motorcycle based upon your VIN number. You can do that on the Moto Guzzi site.

Then, you can search the electronic PDF version and I’m sure you will find it.

Manuals Motoguzzi

Oh crikey, not criticising or doubt on your behalf Scott , merely an observation and very grateful for your info , much appreciated mate . Clearly I’ve a different manual . Cheers , Chris

 

[scottmastrocinque]

I didn’t think you were. Thank you.

I just gave you the hyperlink to get the latest and most correct PDF manual for your motorcycle based upon your VIN number, in electronic format, directly from Moto Guzzi, so as to help you.

Enjoy.

I have a printed service station manual as it is called by Moto Guzzi. Not an official manual but I believe one that was printed and bound from the PDF file. You are welcome to it, just pay postage.

It is not uncommon for Guzzi to delete some used info in the next years book. f n stupid. Example is v7 I book told you how to change maintenance in speedo and the 16 or 17 didn't.

 

[scottmastrocinque]

It does seem that many manufacturers make their manuals rather wonky of late.

Maybe it has something to do with having so many versions in so many languages, etc. The cost to produce and maintain these things has got to be rather large and it is just a pure net loss to the bottom line as the prospect of selling physical copies to recoup the production cost, no longer exists in this digital age.

I really cannot blame them honestly and I’m grateful for what I can get out there for free.

I ordered a product from Italy yesterday. I has a miserable time going through all the steps. It was obvious that they were trying to satisfy various types of addresses around the world and ways of doing things. Near the end of the process the option of using PayPal came up and that solved all the issues, hopefully.

I know where you’re coming from. Tried mine in Veloce after installing the GTM kit had to double back and pick up the wife after she shot off the back . I can still hear the screams.

That was very kind of you to loop back and fetch her. I probably would have just pulled over and waited for her to catch back up. Ugh, the inconvenience of it all.
