    The Sacred Screw, the elusive 4.8, my story

    Hello Tris I would strongly recommend to take out the throttlebody. Its also a good chance then to clean it. I fixed it in a vice and the with a calliper you can make it very exactely. A digital calliper is in that case better, because you can set it in any position to zero and then turn up or...

    Breva 1100 --> Ignition --> cable to internal/external plug

    Hello Does anyone knows why the 2 cable from the double bobine ignition cannot be exchanged? I found in a guzzi document: To avoid fast wear of the platinum electrodes of the internal plug, it is important not to switch The high tension cables on the bobine (cable with red marking –...

    Relation between Throttlebody and ECU, Breva1100)

    Thanks John for the confirmation. I was thinking almost 1 year about this strange sentence in the manual. nevertheless, I have the feeling that to find again the right position of the altered sacred screw is almost impossible. I think, to win in the lottery is much easier.

    Relation between Throttlebody and ECU, Breva1100)

    Hello I still wonder why Moto Guzzi writes in the manual of the Breva 1100ABS, that if the sacred screw has been altered, the whole throttlebody AND(!) the electronic must be changed! I understand that the throttlebody must be changed but why the elctronic (ECU)?? Only because of the TPS...

    PC-V Breva 1100 ABS --> problems and missing map

    I agree with you. Problem is, there is no one near here. We had lot's of problems in Switzerland to find someone who is importing officially Moto Guzzi. The few remaining, are from the "old-carburator-school" and they told me, that they either do not have the equipement, or they do not have the...

    PC-V Breva 1100 ABS --> problems and missing map

    Hello Todd Thanks for your help. I sent you a email. The installation of the PC-V is correct, I checked it. The calibration of the throttels I could make it, but not until the end. The software of the PC-V is rather strange. The green numbers (displays the rpm, throttle and so on) are...

    Breva 1100 won't idle and runs like sh_t

    Hello Zibell Thanks for your answer and help. I did yesterday exactely what Graham wrote. It is quite ok now! I must say, that the main reason was, to safe petrol. In fact, if everything is well balanced, the petrol consume is much lower. This morning, for the same 50km, my breva1100 needed...
