Title: Schwein at car show
Post by: Johncolleary on June 05, 2016, 04:22:33 PM

Went to the Huntington Beach Concours today and came across the Schwein custom Guzzi. I posted a photo before from the long beach motorcycle show but I got to talk to the builders today and got to see it in action. very interesting engineering.  they also had a some of Hondas and a KZ1000 that were beautiful.

The guzzi was at the quail last month.  Nice craftsmanship.

Now that is a slick piece of artwork.  I assume the battery is under the transmission. I like the torsion bar rear suspension, compliments the flowing lines of the main frame.

An interesting piece of semi-steampunk, but what do you you do when you run out of gas at the end of the block?

I like the flathead Indian in the background of the first pic.

It looks to me like a gas powered.beach comber  bicycle.
