The problem with the later ones is not the complexity to draw, but as there are so many wires it becomes harder to cram them all onto an A3 sheet in such a way that they are still legible. I will revisit the Brevas soon, however as I am still self employable and also a busy grandfather my free time is valuable and at the moment split between sailing and rebuilding my old Guzzi (neither of which are progressing as fast as I would like)
Just wanted to say what a fantastic help the laminted wiring diagram has been! I bought a bike with no electrics installed - just regulator & rectifier in a box of mostly useless parts - and bits of spurious wiring presented as a loom…
I have sourced a pretty good original loom and am steadily moving towards a running bike but without Chris’s diagram I would be well stuffed! Excellent - my wife says we should have it framed after the rebuild - I’ll let you know how that works out…
Hi Chris, wiring diagram received. It’s brilliant: a real work of art! Surprisingly the Unreconstructed Despot Woman won’t let me frame it and put it up on the wall!
Many thanks, Great club.
Hello Connor, I did draw the Breva 1100, however it has been wiped from my computer, don’t ask! I am reluctant to draw the newer models as they are more complicated with more components and different wire colours/combinations. This makes them harder to draw but more importantly harder to read when printed at A3, which is the largest size I can print and laminate at home.
There are diagrams available on the internet on thisoldtractor website, the ones by Carl Allison are good but beware that sometimes the colours do not translate from the Italian quite right. See here
I am still self employed and now a grandfather of 5 grandchildren so my time to draw these diminishes with age. I am soon to reach pensionable age, so maybe I will start drawing again?
I have drawn a few of these now in my own format and have used the ones in the Guzzi workshop manuals, I have noted that whilst Carl Allison’s diagrams are generally very good there are a few errors, with colours Bi (White) and B (Blue) confused, so beware
Unfortunately I have had to increase the cost of my wiring diagrams. For a single laminated A3 copy the cost will now be £10.00 and any other copies sent with it up to 5 will be £7.50 each. PDF copies and postage & packing including international postage remain the same.
I have kept the price the same for over 6 years but I am now not even breaking even, so I am sorry to have to increase the cost to the buyers.
These diagrams are just the best thing a Guzzi owner can treat themselves to, and you do us all a great service, sir. No need for you to feel bad, even a little bit, about covering your costs and even, dare I say it, earning yourself the occasional beer out of what you do. Respect, and Cheers!
