  1. If / when you decide to look , make sure the magnets are still stuck / glued to the housing . Inspect each magnet to verify they are not broken or cracked . Use a bright light to examine for cracks . Look and make sure they are indexed perfectly opposite each other . It doesn't matter where they are just that they are separated equidistant from each other . HTH .
  2. Could you please explain this cure a little better ? I know less than I did .

  4. The MGS-01 has to be the most righteous motorcycle EVER to have the Guzzi emblem .
  5. Some Of The Gear Some Of The Time ?
  6. Hmmmmm ?
  7. Be sure & spray white grease on the cam drive / driven gears before buttoning up the engine . The first start puts the most wear on any engine part .
  8. Speaking from experience.....uh , just keep your mouth shut .
  9. Uhhhh , you can Google this Valeo starter for an exploded diagram to see what is inside . EuroMotoElectrics has all the parts for these starters. YouTube should show how these or any permanent magnet starter works . FYI = any permanent magnet starter will spin with the battery hooked up backward . The starter will rotate in the opposite direction and not rotate the flywheel . TRUST ME . I found this out after a friend replaced his battery on his riding mower .
  10. I use premium no-lead fuel . I had my bike remapped in Cape Girardeau a few years ago at a bike shop . I have no pre-ignition.
  11. DO NOT allow anyone to hit the starter " barrel" with any metal objects . If you hit this and the magnets come loose or break , you are in trouble .
  12. What all do you have to offer ?
  13. FWIW 1 mm is 0.0394'' . 1/16'' is 0.0625'' . What is the Roper Plate thickness ? I run the Real Thing !
  14. Verify ( w/key on ) one side of the ignition coil has 12v. and one side of the injector has 12v. The crank sensor ( I think ) will have 5v on one terminal . You can wire a noid light into the crank sensor to verify signal output when cranking. It will be easier to remove spark plugs to make the engine crank easier .
  15. Gotcha
  16. Hmmmmmm. bad threads ?
  17. You can get a "noid light " and test for pulse . If you have pulse tap on the injector with a screwdriver handle to try to shock it loose . I have a Kent-Moore injector pulse generator if you want to borrow it to help pulse the injector while you tap on the injector . If you do get it to run , it would benefit you to get the injectors tested and cleaned .
  18. You want to get the max vacuum reading on each individual cylinder . This vacuum tube is not connected to the other port . The balance tube is connected to both ports and is used to balance the cylinders to get the same power output . This is my opinion on the results you are looking for .
  19. What is the recommended TPS v ? With a carb stix or whatever you are using and it's content . You are wanting a max reading of each cylinder .
  20. They were a GREAT motorcycle . H-D owners just could not bring themselves to ride one , no one else would go to a Harley shop and look at one . a buddy of mine that at one time had two Harleys and a Buell loved it . Something like 6 rear tires in the first year of ownership . He came by the shop one afternoon and let me take it for a spin , I had to stop twice , get off and make sure it had a V-twin engine . I can't recall the model . White , and the instrument cluster lights came on is sequence , then all on . It was WAY TOO righteous for me .
  21. Get plenty of gaskets , hose clamp the NEW oil filter , and enjoy . As I once said , it is the greatest improvement you will never see .
