NO DOUBT A NIGERIAN WILL TRY TO GET IT

Aaron D.:
In '78 those were sort of cheap, maybe $4000/5000 from Cosmo. There was a rumor that some were "parts" bikes as they cleared them out.

Now look.

cruzziguzzi:
I always dug these but the one... one time an example crossed my radar and with extreme fiscal stretching was within my reach two things got in the way.

One, I knew I'd ride the crap outa it - or as much as it allowed.

The other, the shaft drive worried me as it seemed even more one-off than the basic bike itself.

I'da had to have taken the pistons out to protect it from me. Then, why bother? Money went to a TR250 and an MGA... some people never learn! :BEER:

In this dream of yours (and I've had some similar ones) does your "budget" include an ace mechanic and access to the parts necessary to ride it regularly and hard?

That could get really expensive.

In my dream, if it includes all the maintenance, I'd ride a Morbidelli V8 to the next Guzzi rally and show it off.

If the budget DOESN'T include all the maintenance, I'd have a perfect fully equipped V700 or early Ambo ......
