Just got it firing!
Hi all! I am new to both Guzzi tech and forums in general. Also new to Guzzi ownership so all round, be gentle!
I live in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia and bought my V7 Racer second hand from a Triumph dealership down here. The bike had 1600 k's on it and I was told the first service had just been completed by the dealership.
The bike is running rough to the point of stalling when cold (should mention it has the Arrow pipes) and popping and farting when throttling off at any temp. Dont mind the popping and farting as long as it is doing the bike no harm.
I have been told by a registered Guzzi dealer that it is a sensor in the injection system and that it wont be right until the bike is hooked up to a Guzzi diagnostic computer.
The shop I bought the bike from told me they could service the bike and that if I want the problem fixed I will have to pay for them to tweak the sensors without hooking it up to a computer (as they have none!). My option is to do a 6 hour round trip to Devonport in Tas and take it to the dealership that has the computer. A little grumpy at the shop and will take the issue up with them but want an opinion on whether I am ever going to get the bike right without the correct diagnostic computer hooked up.
Anyone???
