After recovering a few years from the bad taste my 16 v7 left in my mouth and a far too ambitions first guzzi rebuild to start with in a v700 I drug this old gal home (a 78 t3) this past week. Judging by the tires I doubt it has done much road duty for 25 years or so but it she does run, go and stop (though I wanna at least check the barrels before doing any of that stuff and do plan on replacing 'em as soon as I get everything else up to snuff.
I know I will be in the market for at least the following parts wise. The front turn signals and bracket as apparently they don't mount to the ears. Headlight bucket, taillight and turns and maybe some more correct silencers.
In the meantime I got tires on order, and will order all the bits to do a full fluid change this week. Plenty to of things to do while I wait for parts on the other project that appeared in the trailer this month a 48 Norton es2.
I do have one question to start with. The switch gear is pretty bastardized. The left switch has wires soldered to the switch, the right is non existent, no keyed ignition and a push button for the starter. I would like to go with a japanese or maybe a modern triumph switch set up. Are there any that are more suited to an 850i then others?
