O.K. so here i am in the ass end of the world with no help /guzzi agents [South Africa ] I am the proud owner of an 2013 Cali 1400 touring with 3500 km on the clock. She goes beautifully, But-- while left hand header pipe looks brand new, the right hand header pipe is very blued,[ I do not have a problem with blued pipes, in the good old days blued pipes meant that you were a hard rider!] I would like to have both pipes equally coloured , how can i set up the system to equalize the the combustion proccess without all the fancy computer link ups ? AND, is there a way of removing the blueing on the r/h header pipe??
Thanks,, Charlie
 
Congrats on the 1400. Hopefully you'll add your info to the Registry page.
The single throttle body offers no real adjustability, and relies on the map data for "offset" between cylinders. It's crude and doesn't work well as you are seeing. I have a solution HERE that is expensive but has proven to work amazingly well as the Dyno run charts show in this section.
The blueing can be removed with a good metal polish. Google is of big help with products you can get locally or via mail.
