Hi guys i really need help with my guzzi v50 mk2 please i have run out of options.
I am from South Africa and around here are not many people that can help me or give me advice regarding my bike.
So basically it has been fully restored to the T by my stepdad over the period of about a year and a half as waiting for parts from Germany and UK takes a looong time to get to South Africa.
Ok so the problem with the bike is that it is only running on the left cylinder and i mean ONLY! It starts quite easy and idles fine on the one cylinder and i know this because i can literally keep my hand on the right side header even after riding the bike around the block, Now and then it would shoot out a flame on the right side but thats it.
I have replaced the OEM coils with brand new ones from Gutzibits and the spark seems to be perfect and strong on both sides. It has Bosh OEM electric CDI ignition x2. I have swapped the two CDI boxes around and same problem the right side is not running. I have cleaned the carbs and adjusted float level probably 15 times. I am running out of idea's as i dont have much experience with these old bikes.
Everything Mechanical is new on this bike, pistons,rings,re sleaved,bushes,seals just to name a few.
Please if you have any suggestions or questions please get in touch. I am sad to see this pristine condition bike just sitting in the garage under a cover and need to get it running to show it off.
Any advice will be much appreciated.
