I like the Ambo of course but Honda has a better dealer network and parts availability...

Where are these posted?

 There was a 2nd gen S90 passed thru my hands about 15 years ago , hadn't ran in years , no interest in making it do so . passed it along to a friend , who sold it to some guy willing to spend the money . The work was done by a local specialist , was in his shop during the process , he had sourced parts from all over the world , still couldn't find a good high quality piston or ring set after looking for months . Some new stuff was apparently of such poor build quality he refused to use it .

If the chrome cylinders have not been addressed on the Ambo then they really won't be within $235 of one another unless you are buying for static art.

The Guzzi is now at $5077 with less than a day to go.

"replacement of the cylinders, pistons, rings, wiring harness, clutch, tires, and battery as well as carburetor and transmission rebuilds."

the Honda may have muscle, brain and heart. The Guzzi has all that, but also a SOUL. There's a difference.

This listing has a reserve. BaT doesn't announce when bidding has met the reserve, so we'll need to wait to the end to see if it sells.
