Looks better than most of what the factory is offering.

Unfortunately that's not saying much...

 Ye Freaking Ha Hey!

[TN Mark]

B E A U T I F U L, congratulations to the team at GT Motors.

 Hard to tell from the photos , but if they are running Tonto drive components , the bevel box will come with a 90/90 guarantee . That would be feet/seconds .

 Pete will be along shortly to laugh at the claimed power figures .

I can’t be arsed.

The famed Moto Guzzi Tonti frame of the 1970s is near perfect. It’s stiff, low, and bombproof. However, the original twin shock configuration is old school. That’s why we’ve married the modern CARC single-sided swingarm and rising rate mono-shock technology into the Tonti frame – giving you state-of-the-art suspension performance with the long low lines of a classic Guzzi.

 Ahh , thanks Brad , I'll admit to not reading some of the hype surrounding these impossible creations, like Pete says , I can't be arsed

That looks a lot like a bellagio frame. Even if they qlaim that they modified an old tonti frame to build it.
140hp does sound very optimistic

Some of you are missing the forest for the trees.

It wouldn't have to make that hp or even be that lite. I'd hit that in a heartbeat if it was anywhere remotely in the ballpark, and I bet plenty of other people would too.

Ugly from behind, like where is the rest of the bike?

 Kev buddy , I literally have no idea what you are trying to say here

I think that he is saying that he likes it and if the price was right he would buy it and so would lots of other  people

I don't think it's coming in a $8,500 bucks, so that will eliminate quite a few people.

[Tusayan]

Looks to me Todd Eagan has built a one-off bike, with its own website to match.

I am one thats interested. So is GT moto the guys from Guzzi Tech, Ed and Todd? If so I assume these are put together in California.
I rarely go to the Guzzitech website but did find a similar bike made by a forum member, 1400 engine in a tonti frame with a more recognizable rear fender and seat. I am guessing anyone serious about one would be able customize some of the details.

Didn't Ed and Todd have a very ugly and very public divorce like 5-6 years ago?!?

[oldbike54]

 hp what ? If you're suggesting that a big power number would convince you to buy it that seems to go against a lot of the motorbike philosophy you've been espousing over the last several years 

 Dusty

Maybe, that would be too bad. I knew Ed but only spoke to Todd a few times and haven't had contact with them in over ten years.
That would affect my decision to buy one now.

Substitute the word HP for the obvious typo in my quote and you should be able to figure it out. Or go read the original (now edited) post again.

I am saying it doesn't need to make that claimed how.

It doesn't need to be only 396#

If it is anywhere in the ballpark (100 HP and 450#) I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Or even less power and a little more weight.

[oldbike54]

 Oh hell , I just grokked that this is a Guzzi Tech creation . Take the hype with a grain of salt fellas .

 Oh I agree , an honest 80 HP in a 450 LB motorbike is really all anyone can use on the street , I'm just curious why GT seems to feel compelled to make figures up .

I'm not saying I want THIS ONE. I'm suggesting the factory build something like it.

A street bike look on the bellagio base would have been a good start.
I don't know why they made it a cruiser style bike and not a standard instead. Like a new T3, or similar. Would have been a killer bike [emoji4]

I don't mind the bike, but I'd prefer a bench seat to make it more practical and have a better aesthetic appeal.  And where the hell is the brake light and turn signals?

[guzzisteve]

I believe Todd put the lites in the frame rails around the seat. I read something like that in his build thread.
