Just got it firing!
On the very last ride of the season last year, I'm entering the local interstate highway, accelerating rapidly from about 45mph to close to 80mph ... very smooth, very strong pull from the Guzzi twin.
Suddenly, the smooth running Griso begins to "cough" "studder" and becomes a patient seemingly gasping for ... air? fuel? both? She will start and run very rough. When riding, the higher the RPMs the more she gasps for power... lots of exhaust backfiring...
Well, spring has arrived and the winter motorcycle gods did not miraculously cure my Italian mistress during the cold winter months.
Scheduled to arrive at the shop on Tues morning.
My non-mechanical mind, always in need of help, is thinking:
1. Fuel filter failure (happen to a DUC Monster of mine - same symptoms)
2. Bad fuel (the fuel was not recent nor had it been sitting for long period of time)
3. 02 sensor issue (checked connections, seem to be fine)
4. ___________________?????
Any other suggestions for this non mechanical-minded Guzzi rider???
