Bad connection or faulty starter. Check voltage/current to the starter when you press start - should be around 8/9 volts for a 12 volt system - if considerably higher suspect starter, if lower and little current flowing suspect poor connection somewhere. If the voltage is low and current high suspect starter.

SOURCE: fuel pump

as they just say disconnect pipe in the instructions for removing the tank. I have tried pulling pushing squeezing and everything else I can think of. I daren't put too much pressure on it as it's only a plastic fitting out of the pump, and I have read enough tragic tales of it breaking.,You need to push the hose in towards the elbow while pulling the collar back. I couldn't get enough purchase on it and in the end used an open ended spanner that fitted over the elbow and pressed on the collar(?) of the fitting. Then push f***ing hard with the hose towards the elbow and it popped right off. Only took me 40 mins before trying with the spanner.,,,

These are infamous for side stand switches that allow the bike to shut off and more importantly not start when side stand is down. Even worse is that it can activate even with side stand up. So either pull it off and short it out or clean up the connections.

SOURCE: Moto Guzzi breva 1100 won't start clicks at relay.

Take a look at the starter solenoid. There are two larger wires, on the back. One from the battery positive, (main hot wire), the other goes to the starter motor (If you jump these terminals the starter will spin but will not engage the flywheel). Look at the wires and nuts on the solenoid, especially the starter motor side make sure they are clean and tight, have not gotten hot and started rusting. Also check the voltage on the solenoid wire, (smallest) wire from the start button. In some cases there is a voltage loss on this wire. Next time it will not engage the starter right away, make a jump from the main power battery terminal on the starter to the solenoid wire. If it starts right up every time, you need to add and wire in another relay to carry the voltage to the solenoid from the start button, (a relay to work the solenoid, lol). If that test does not work or help.. Tap on the starter motor with a hammer. if it catches and turns the engine then, the motor brushes are worn and need to be replaced.

Moto guzzi problems

What do you mean adjust the display? I have a Norge and other than changing the display functions I am at a loss. You should be able to get these issues resolved in the manual. My Norge has a great owners manual that came with it.
