Just got it firing!
Hi guys!
I have a problem and maybe you can help my with...
After 2 years and only 4850km my V7 racer just "blocked" in a total engine failure at 80km/h and I almost crashed. (my rear wheel stopped instantly)
I had no issues before that and serviced it every year... Did it ever happen to anybody?
My mechanic says its pointles to open the engine since you can clearly see that a rod failed and cracked the case. (see attached photo)
I've sent an email to Moto Guzzi Customer care (we dont have a dealer in my country) and they replied after 3 days:
"Dear Customer,
Thank you for your recent web enquiry.
Let us kindly invite you to forward your request with a full description with VIN or Frame no. to the nearest official dealer in Hungary"
My warranty expired in august '15...but still I dont think its normal.
Now I'm thinking of buying a second hand engine since a replacement from the dealer is almost 5000 Euros.
What do you guys think?
