Misterb.Lovely build, really nice to see how you did everything. For the tail light have you considered1 - inserting tail and stop lights into the cut frame rails? Very discreet and keeps the clean lines of the hump2 - using an old Ford light, similar to the one on the famous Zagato Guzzi, set into the hump.Also, I wonder if your indicators are staying? They look quiet bulky to me. Rizoma make some lovely sleek ones, expensive but sexy.Cheers
On this thread Roy posted a diagram for the Reg Rechttp://wildguzzi.com/forum/index.php?topic=84467.0I'm not sure I understand the question, if the rectifier didn't have a reference it would just continue to rectify the output from the Alternator, which being a permanent magnet, gives all the output its capable of at any given RPM.You need a reference to regulate the DC voltage to stop it overcharging the battery............ ............unless I'm missing somethingJohn
I hope there not too boring, at the moment the coils are giving me a headache in finding them a home on the bike, so I'm waiting for a single fire coil I've ordered to turn up. While the billet cover I made for the rear light still doesn't quite look the part, so more machining will be needed on that. For those without an hour to spare on youtube, here's how it looks now, still haven't finalised the colour scheme in my head, but it'll probably end up red with gold pinstripes an Guzzi decals..
Can you provide a straight on side shot of the bike? I'd like to Photoshop a paint scheme. If you don't mind.
Sounds interesting... at the moment the two most likely options are red or black, with black / gold 'Moto Guzzi' decals in both cases..
I vote for Black paint..are going to have a front fender? I hope so, in gloss black.
Yes I want to fit a front fender, haven't found anything suitable yet. I did try an alloy blade type, which I'd have to make a mount for, but like most such classic fenders its too narrow, makes it look odd on the bike. As for the colour, I started out wanting it to be red.. the colour of speed.. but now I'm slowly edging toward a black, with gold pinstripes. I'll probably keep flip flopping until the last minute before the paint goes on.
You've changed my tank ! I think the stripe graphics work well on the angular Guzzi LM1 style tank, but not so well on the more curvy alloy tank I have on my bike. Its all food for thought
I just laid a 1000S tank over it to see what it would look like. It just to give an impression of the colors. I'm not going to paint your tank for you! :-)
