  1. Correct ! At least I can't feel any difference between a V11 with 1 or 2 crossovers. Cheers Tom.
  2. And what did we do back early seventy's mounting a new double exhaust on a 440. Putting stripe of white chalk on the pipes and go for a spirited drive. The spot on the pipe with most evidence of heat was where the crossover was mounted. Seemed correct at the time. Crossover on the headers, NOISE reason. Cheers Tom.
  3. No negative effect one mine, and easyer to get the alternator cover of. Cheers Tom.
  4. More rpm, she is getting enough fuel. Had some black exhaust staines on my RCorsa, different mapping, better, but not easy to get high temperatures at the end of a V11 exhaust system. On the pork shops, may be fumes from airfilter box, intake pipes. Mine will get spots, greasy/oilish . And l don’t have any obviously leaks. Just clean and be happy. Sounds like she is running good, since this was your only concern. Cheers Tom.
  5. English enginering at the best. Had a wodden 44 feet Norwegian fishing vessle with a straight 8 14litre Gardner LBX. Possible to start by hand, speed brace. 2 heads, both with decomp. All internal parts were #, possible to change any lube on the camshaft. What an engine. Sorry now pictures here. Cheers Tom.
  6. Quite a stable of maintaining books, 48cyl ned attention. Age related stuff seems to slip my mind. Ok, some reminders. Getting a lighter bike at some time, but only 71+ . Cheers Tom.
  7. And whats wrong with the morons doing the sound in movies, seeing a boxer with a screaming 4 cyl for sound, and other vehicles . Cheers Tom.
  8. 296km today up in the mountains. IPA time for sure. Cheers Tom. Sent fra min SM-S906B via Tapatalk
  9. And me think Kiwi Roy says, DON'T ground the regulator at the battery negative. Good ground from regulator to engine block. Cheers Tom.
  10. Thanks everybody. Sorry, for not explaining everything. Bike 100% original when l bought it. She was running ok, just the 3000rpm hesitation. Went thru EVERYTHING, installed complete new exhaust with Titanium mufflers and ECU, valves 0.2+, just one mouse in my house. Today l took out the TPS, checked again, no glitch, set it to 157mv. Start’s perfect and runs perfect. Me thinks Phil had a point with the regulator. Boy was she running RICH, like an old Volvo with full choke. Fuel fumes for hours upstairs. Mini test ride because of the weather, but no problems compared to the same test ride yesterday. Oh well, always something to learn. Thanks again guys. Cheers Tom.
  11. Finally some weather yesterday, and time to test out the Coppa. Starts fine home, all good. After about 10km she starts to misfire a bit, had to give her some revs to keep going. Idling not possible. Sitting for about an hour at friends house. Starts fine again, riding of, but soon misfiring. Got her home sort of. So what comes to mind ? Today I changed the CIT relays to Omrons, Rev sensors work when cold, but if broken dies when hot. In with a new rev sensor. TPS steady from 1075 to 3000. Started her up in the afternoon, no success. Keeping her alive with reving, lots of black smoke of gas. Spark plugs, lets say BLACK. Another used set in, just the same. Hints please. Cheers Tom.
  12. I realy like the WP suspension on the 1100 Sport, but there is a plastic part that's hard to find. So yes I woud put a WP front on the V11. Øhlins on two V11, and yes they are nice. Look for some used ones. Wilbers only offer springs for the front, but exelent rear schock. Just my experience. Cheers Tom.
  13. And I heard a familiar crispy motor . Cheers Tom.
  14. Follow Scud's advice. Done it both ways, taking manifold of, and carefully getting bolts back include L of swearing. And I put the boot in a kettle of HOT water, way more doable then. Dish washing soap works for me as lubricant. Stein Dinse or TLM have parts, and probably in your own neighborhood. Cheers TOM.
  15. No sensible answer . Cheers Tom.
  16. It's a reason for that, winning I mean. Going to Assen again this year. Cheers Tom.
  17. Or as mentioned Many times, a small unseen build with a direct regulator. 30amp fuse on holiday. Worth it if it’s a keeper. Cheers Tom.
  18. Tomchri

    Wanted

    Saw a carbon cover a couple of days ago on Kleinanziegen.de Cheers Tom.
  19. Since you already have some thoughts about it, do the right thing. Turbulence is a nasty ting at speed. Cheers Tom.
  20. Make a good ground cable from regulator to the engine while your having a little inspection. More options available if desired . Cheers Tom.
  21. Put new correct good orings in for good oil presure. They are located in front of your intermediate plate. Cheers Tom.
  22. Thats why I like to check/upgrade whatever possible before road trips . Cheers Tom.
  23. Jens had to change the company name from Guzzi parts to V2 parts . They are the correct slave cyl with correct travel. Cheers Tom.
  24. Dealer said 500+ $ for internal pump 8years ago. Bought 2 Quantum pumps for 150$. NO problem so far. Cheers Tom.
