Not firing
4000 rpm, no power. Feels like fueling. checked the pump, changed the fuel filter. same thing. at exactly 4000, it bogs. checked the clutch switch. checked and cleaned the map sensor. restored the stock ecu map, removed todd's pc/autotune fuel package, swapped the wide-band sensors for stock. ...same thing.
gave up and brought it to the dealer. new coil. injectors check out. one week later, they are still talking to piaggio italy.
meanwhile, i picked up a ktm 1290 superduke gt. it's a revelation. an upright, razor-sharp wheelie-pulling "touring" v-twin bagger with 175 hp and 106 ftp torque. blindingly quick. no hanging throttle. ignition switch seems pretty solid. warped heads seem unlikely. the austrians seem pretty serious about their engineering.
after a reasonably happy life with 4 guzzis. i may be done. i'm getting too old to dick around with the quirks in the current batch of guzzi's piaggio/aprilia offerings.
and with the ktm i'm learning to ride again. my apple watch is congratulating me for getting my heart rate up.
I hope i'm not just chasing a new pretty girl, but piaggio has got to come back very strong in addressing this latest problem if they want to keep me in this abusive relationship.
end rant.
i'll keep you posted on the resolution.
