I have one of those. Less than 20K miles, in great shape. Love that bike but she out grew me. 

The yclept Joe Caruso conversion - replacing every thing in the timing chest, plus a new and better oil pump - was done 3 years ago.

I bought it at 1147 miles in April of 2000. Spin on oil filter - Teo Lamers sump. Asking $15K. Always stored in a warm basement.  R3~

That’s a lot of bike for the money! :gotpics:

Speaking of a Centauro, I lucked out when a close friends' Centauro blew up.  We used to ride together. He called me right away, w/the warning, results and the 'cure'. How do you say thank you to someone like that?

BTW: My Daytona is original except for the sump and external oil filter.   R3~

peace of mind is a beautiful thing. I had the C-kit cams and new lifters installed while installing the caruso pump/ steel timing gear. Also a pete roper sloppage plate. Ed milich had the cams and lifters DLC coated for me. see old vs new cam and old lifter pics. 18,000 mile engine.

My Daytona 1100RS is Centauro according to the Auto License Bureau.  I wasn't going to argue the point.  This especially when they don't know vehicles.  Same thing for the first generation Honda Pilot made by Isuzu.   :tongue:

I have the same issue with my RS in that every single year since 1999 the insurance company renewal paperwork has called it a Centauro.  And every year I call them and straighten it out on the policy.

On the plus side, if they confuse the Daytona RS as a Centauro then the insurance cost is lower.  Standard vs sport bike.   :boozing:

True, but I made them change mine from centauro to RS because I don’t want to argue with them if I had to make a claim.

It is getting some $$$love. Has five days to go, I imagine it will double by the end of the auction.

My LeMans came from John Hoffman’s Cycle Specialties. That was a well known dealer in Athens.

Hopefully it does not end up in any museum but rather in a rider's hands that will bastardize it however they want and ride the wheels off of it.  Motorcycle museum are kind of sad  all the bikes were built to be ridden not to sit there like art.

Clearly you haven’t been to the museum at Barber.  Not all of us get to ride every motorcycle ever made, so it’s nice to go and drool on bikes we’ll never own.  Let THIS pristine Daytona rest in piece on display.

this ^^^^^
My vote for best looking Guzzi ever and thats what I would do to it. Not change any of the cosmetics but definitely replace or modify the CPU. Those early four valves had to be among the worst running Guzzis ever.

Clearly you have no idea where I have been. Yes Barber is an impressive facility but that doesn't diminish the fact that so many of the bikes are now art and not motorcycles.

The Daytona in this thread to date has never had a chance to be enjoyed.

Not true. From Barber's Website: '99% of all motorcycles in the museum can be run within one hour.'

If Barber doesn’t already have one let them buy a used one. They have the ability to restore it like new. If its just going sit there who cares. I know they have a never run Norton F1 Rotary. Shame no one has ridden that bike the way they were meant to be ridden.

Yes, I'm sure all the bike on the towers, walls and suspended from the ceiling routinely get taken down and they get to go a lap or two around the track or started and revved up a few times for the audience. Yup just the way manufacturers intended.

Barber's wants you to give them the bike or sell it to them at fire sale prices unless it is something extremely rare. This one is way out of their price structure.

If you have the means, buy it & ride it. save it from it's demise. A Sin Against St Carlo.

Haven't read this whole thread but... This gem will only maintain the current value (in our lifetime) if it remains in the crate, right? I can only imagine that a non-rider bought it. Seems like a rider wouldn't be able to NOT put it together and ride it.

Check out this vid on a 1975 Norton 850 Commando  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9_Vmi_1lKQ&t=38s

Biggest thing not to do is titling the bike and turning in the MSO.  Once the MSO is turned in the bike starts to officially age and lose value.  It's still a "new" 1993 Moto Guzzi Daytona 1000.  It doesn't matter how mileage is on the odometer.
