It had a switch blade key and was painted with bed liner. Also, look at how sweet the tail meets up with the Yamaha Tank ( I can still see the Yamaha sticker thru the black paint).







Cleaned up nicely

That's more utilitarian and purposeful than scary. (kinda badass too ! )  Doesn't that belong to one of our members ?

It does belong to a member, ratguzzi. I like the bike, it is inspirational but is still a scary looking bike.
I got the picture from a previous post he made.

Ok, I'll play, too..  :smiley: The fabulous "Monte Carlo" Guzzi. Called that because of the emblem on the front fender. Some handy tips from it: When the chrome is completely gone from the bores, packing the sludge trap completely full, a heater hose ran from the breather back behind the license plate keeps oil off the rear wheel.  :smiley: Speed mod. If you cut out every other section of the air cleaner, it'll breathe better. There were many more. He must have had "Tips" ver 1 2 & 3 from Frank.  :evil:

Well, I disassembled it a year ago or more and uh changed frames. Still original vin plate, same motor.
 Then used the floor boards and fuel tank on my raTi.
