Shore is purty. Great version of that bike, but too much $$$ for what it is. Maybe $4k would be ok.

If you don't end up having any luck with this, I'd check with A.K. Cycles in Denver to see if it's something in their wheelhouse.

The V7 Sport and 750S have a different type, but do have them as well. Necessary to help prevent the header nuts from loosening.

Appreciate your sharing, but it’s just a link to one photo, which I don’t believe allows for cycling through the photos. Here’s the link to the full post:

Better looking than the previous photos I have seen.  If it were my bike, that radiator guard is getting removed, painted, or some holes drilled in it to tone it down.

The comments in Italian are really enjoyable!  Luckily Facebook has a translate function.

Based on the comments, it seems very few Italians actually want Moto Guzzi to produce any newer version of a motorcycle than their signature air-cooled V-Twin. 

No wonder production numbers are not high.

General Discussion / Loop header clamps

Eldorados and Ambassadors have clamps on the headers to the frame. Just wondering how necessary they are since the newer bikes don't have them. Maybe the threaded-in header retainers aren't as robust and it makes a difference?

I can't wait for Ed to reach out and smack my hand 

Always keep your hands high to guard your face and they remain untouched.   

My primary targets are below the belt anyway....

How about a link for the amazon pegs and the size of the hole through them and the thickness of the pegs mount the hole goes through. The H bars from amazon I posted have an oddball size so I'm still looking for replacment pegs for them. I have old hand grips on them now.
