.... and ironically still needs a block of wood to get the stand close enough to the ground to stand the bike at the proper angle  :thumb:

Those stands are the only thing Guzzi stole from Harley ( Loop police) worth a crap.  My Calvin still had one!

How about a BSA tank?

Dig the Tach!

or better yet, next time you need a Harley tank, this one is cool!

It's described as a "1977 Moto Guzzi V1000 Convort".  Perhaps the seller means "Covert" or "Cavort"

It's a per-vert.

A Convertster?  A Sportvert? 
This just might be the newest and greatest idea Guzzi has never thought of to steal sales away from HD.  Can anyone get a Dyna tank on a Stelvio?

Yikes! When will the vehicular cancer that is the "peanut tank" stop spreading?

The seat conceptually, I like if not the execution.
Bars and front fender?

I suppose the question is "Why?". Personally I'm not a fan. That tank just does not suit it.

It certainly has potential.

Needs some small - medium sized leather panniers.
