Title: Your Dream Moto Guzzi
Post by: JeffOlson on December 27, 2015, 12:35:15 PM
Real or imagined, owned or not...

Although I do not own one, I think I would really enjoy a V11 Le Mans. (I like sport tourers.) Perhaps something like this:

1973 or 74 black Eldorado with the 4 leading shoe front brake.  Would also like period correct fairing and bags.  No chrome bores and shift pattern like a newer bike.

I want  loop frame in the family, also a Daytona is up there on the list, and to not be cliche, a Lemans1 would be a nice addition too.... and maybe a Centauro. I guess I have some work to do. Lots of fly and rides. Not many Guzzis come up here in AK

Attainable (if I build it) dream: Ambovert: '70 Ambassador based, '83 Cal II engine w/PHF30s, dual-disc front end, Convert driveline, Police Eldo tank, solo seat, "polizia" fairing, DB saddlebags.

I've got mine. Sure it's non standard but few bikes are left stock by their owners. As I've said many times if the factory had built a bike just for me my G12 would be it.

I'm a bit out of the loop now, but would and 8V engine fit in a V11 Le Mans chassis?

Otherwise, I'd take an 8V Griso with Ohlin's suspenders and make a Le Mans out of it.

If I ever own another Guzzi, will probably be a G5, or Eldo with floorboards. That's my brain and old bones talking, not my heart.  :weiner:  :grin:

My Sport 1100 has resided on our back patio for nigh on a decade now. Not so much that I can't ride it as it's not rewarding here in Phoenix like it was back east or California. So, not unlike Lone Watie's piece of hard rock candy: These days, it's not for ridin', it's just for lookin' at.

I've paid less for wall art so what the hey?

Most of the people here have no idea.

This isn't an insult, simply an observation. A Tuono with the RSV-4 'Stinger' may not be the most comfortable bike in the universe but I can guarantee that if the corn cob pipists actually rode one it would blow their minds! Chuck in the shower head injectors and a 'Race' ECU and it would be a bike worthy of the Guzzi name.

My 01 greenie is my dream bike.
She's mostly stock but I have carbon Mistrals (open ) K&N filter open airbox lid Stucchi X over Hyperpro shock  and steering damper + revalved forks.
Ecu has been reflashed as well + PC111 and custom map.
Dreamtime ( surprised I've gotten away with the above ) would be the Mike Rich headwork Magni fairing and a spoke wheel conversion!
Phew I reckon that would be the ultimate!

Yeah I believe they are a fair bit lower than stock.
Don't know that my neck and back could handle the lower bars either!
Funny thing is much as I like the Magni everytime I look back at the little screen that came with the bike I doubt I could justify the expense of the Magni.
She does look good as is!
