Finally: the eight week ache (Eldo content)
« on: June 10, 2017, 12:37:35 PM »
After 8 weeks of repair (me, not the bike), I can finally ride the 72 Eldorado again. No other bike even comes close - not the four in the garage or any in a showroom anywhere.


and on the offchance theres still a Guzzista out there in the world who hasn't seen why.

Glad to hear all the parts have knit back together...steady on. Remember, time spent on two wheels won't be counted toward death.

Great video, Nick! Yes, I'm one of the few that has apparently missed it.
Good for you, and way to keep on keeping on.  :thumb:

Hi Nick,

I certainly know what you mean when you indicate that your 'older' Eldorado is the perfect bike for you!  Today I just now returned from my back road ride through the Beaver Valley and the Collingwood Blue Mountains. Briefly I owned a 2012 Stelvio and a 2004 California EV - but I always returned to my old Cali II with 105,000 kl.
