Guzzi Factory Sidecar Rig?
« on: March 01, 2024, 06:44:43 PM »








Looks familiar in many ways. Makes me wonder how many of these parts they have been providing to other manufacturers.

Oh Yes, like- They make parts for Piaggio/Guzzi for 5yrs & they get a motor for their own in the trade. Been 5yrs they been making internal Guzzi motor parts.

Or if they don't wait to wait 5 years or 10 seconds they simply steal the design and go on their merry way.

Agreed! To me it looks like a cartoonish injection molded kids toy. Maybe bolt'er onto this tug.
