Around 1990 I walked into a motorcycle shop for the very first time. A large Moto Guzzi dealer with a huge selection in the showroom. At the very front of the shop was a slightly old fashioned but muscular looking 1000S. In my opinion the most beautiful Guzzi from the showroom, but also one of the most expensive.
"....and make some molds of old LM1 side covers."
?? Why not just buy them?
Because the copies are supposedly not very good. Also, I discovered that the covers from the LM1&2 have a lot of material missing from around the lower mount. It's cut away for the brake actuating rod on one side and forgot what on the other. It's a weak area and I can fill all that in for use on the 1000S copy. Also, I have access to a fiberglass shop, plus I've got a feeling I'll want more, so having a mold to pop out extras will save big time in the long run.
Daan is one of the top 1000S enthusiasts! He went to great lengths to help me acquire a correct set of Ariete grips for my 1000S that I will always be grateful for. For a space in time I was the lucky owner of 2 1000S, now down to 1 and still feel lucky!
