It took me a year or so to spot the black with White stripes under the ice blue where the seat was rubbing.

Post by: Arizona Wayne on October 31, 2015, 01:57:30 AM: Interesting all the different handlebars the Convert.s came with. My `80 had a much lower, narrower bar. My `76 has a handlebar so tall it has a cross brace like a dirt bike and for us the grips are pull back instead of horizontal. This gives the bike a whole different feel. I suppose if your are really tall (over 6') our bar would work better for you than us, or at least what I'm used to a Guzzi feeling like..
