After the bike show I followed my buddy Mike home so he could check out the Guzzi. Little did I know he left his camera rolling...

Nicely maintained T!
Makes me want to rebuild mine (again). But I've sworn off. Three decades is enough.
What's your Britbike there?

It's been maintained but well used.
That's my buddy's Vincent Comet.

I could see the Vincent frame but in the video couldn't identify the engine. Beautiful.

Fun video, and great commentary. Bike sounds great too!

I'm not sure what the mufflers are. They have a mark on them but I didn't recognize it.

I think those may be "Dunstall"

I have real Dunstalls and replica Dunstalls. The ones on the bike are different.

The one on the floor is the Dunstall replica.

They may be Replica-Replica Dunstall, :cheesy:
Not sure then. Someone here I'm guessing will know the answer.

Nice bike and it sounds great! Makes me wish I had one to go with my V11. :laugh:

Better angle on the mounting strap.

You want to talk me out of this one?

Nice job getting this 850T back on the road. You mentioned sleeving the 15mm brake master cylinder, but an alternative would be to replace the Brembo F08 caliper with an F09. I did this on my T and it gives better modulation with the 15mm master. $135 and less than an hour.

Or this for $108.

Emgo is all that I have run on my T-3 (On my third set since 1989). Never paid over $80 a pair and have a new set in waiting that I paid $30 for at an auction. They hold up well and I have received many, many compliments on the sound. What's not to like?

I have Emgos on the Norton and they get more compliments than any other muffler on a Norton. And they are by far the cheapest.
That being said the right side exhaust isn't sealing right and it leaks badly from the muffler/crossover joint. Need to address that.

Cut up a beer can for a shim.

The 850 in a great motor. The LMIII never fails to make me grin, 3rd/4th gear twisties are just a blast!
