Show me your Guzzi - Not Safe for Dial Up

[goog64]

My V7C caught on the fly, heading in for a Linguini refill at Sodini's in North Beach (Little Italy), San Francisco.  What a handsome chap!  What a lady killer!

One of my new favourite Guzzi photos. Thanks.

Hell yeah they're checkin' it out! They're diggin' those foot rests, plug wires, grips and brake lines.

Pretty Lemans and rockin' screen name too.

You asked me what it's like to drive BB1?
 First trip, even if it can be compared to - you have to learn to ride the wild horse  ~;
 First, you have to take the horse and try to ride it in the direction where you are going - there is not what the horse wants to rush!
 A few days after the wild horse of BB1 need to know who is the driver  8)
 It is important to learn how to drive BB1, because there is no electronic assistants  :o

 I've been four times to learn the track riding!
 It is especially fun, because on the one hand demanding that the driver itself is responsible for 100% of the fall or remain upright!

 MPR3soft version of the rear tire would have enabled higher cornering speeds, but I will continue next spring course race exercises  ~;  ~;  ;-T

Thanks Arska,
Can you give us any engine specs and driving impressions?
How does it differ from the Griso  -  apart from the beefed-up engine, I mean?
Are you only going to use it on the track?

Thanks again Arska
So your "Griso" has 1420 cc and 134 hp! Do you expect to enjoy riding it on the road?
And there are 145 hp and 179 hp race kits .... wow!

[ducducguzzi]

hi there. can you tell me what pipes they are on the le mans please?

hotballs, if you are asking about the lemans by the goat barn, then they are BUB exhaust cans.

[hotballs]

same bike as above slowly turning into something mildly resembling what i pictured

[nick949]

1972 Eldorado 1969 Ambo. Both of my bikes run. Sort of. I have to take parts off the Eldo to make the Ambo go however. I bought the Ambassodor at an auction as a roller bobber. It's a '69 police bike but missing lots of stuff. 

here's a tip - spend some money on upholstery........I t may improve the riding experience.

That's a pretty bike.  I went browsing through the other photos and love the old bikes.  It looks like those were taken at that Steam Rally.  Very cool.  I'd never heard of a Bradbruy.  Interesting bike.  I love those old coffin gas tanks - they looks perfect.

A few shots of my Lario in my backyard........... ..

[bmorg61]

Here is my nearly finished Lario, I got two in the deal (previous owner needed two to make one after the famous Lario head grenade episode). Just painted one set of wheels hammered effect charcoal and now Im missing the red.... will we ever be satisfied?
I was drooling over a v7 Cafe thinking if only the seat was this and the tank was that etc etc (and if only I had the cash) So I started googling and doodling and came up with a plan, it all started with the taillight, all led, I cant stand some of the beautiful swooping tail designs that have a tailight slapped on it like a big festering pimple.
Now I have to find an alloy round headlight fairing to go with the alloy tail, but now that its summer perhaps id better just ride it and enjoy the rumble.

Check this small block trike.  This came out to play today at the Dirtbag Challenge in San Fran.

I love my Griso. It is so perfect to ride.




Dramatic skies today because the weather is changing.
