V-4 Guzzi
« on: December 19, 2017, 07:00:36 AM »
Hi guys, hope everyone is well. Merry Christmas to all!

Thought you'd get a kick out of this.

I have a inventive NFalcone acquaintance in Holland who is building a supercharged V-4 Guzzi.  The machine is two 350cc V35's grafted together with the parallel cylinders firing 360 degrees apart. A small direct-driven supercharger is also attached. 

I'm not sure the bike is on the road yet but here are a couple of videos of the thing. (He has already built a supercharged Nuovo Falcone that has been ridden and publicized in Europe.)

Wow! That takes determination. But you gotta do something all winter, right?

The parallel cylinders aren't firing at the same time , but at 360*. It sounds like a Guzzi  on double revs.

I'm glad he made it home, I'd hate to have to ride on those pavers around town, the rural roads looked pretty dodgy too. Makes me really appreciate where I live, with freshly tarred mountain roads just around the corner.
