Was watching a "Mannix" episode from 1971 on ME-TV last night. This shot of detectives and police leaving the station garage made me sit up and take notice when I spied those two beauties on the right. Unfortunately, the cops drove away in cars.

I just saw that episode of Mannix. I noticed the bikes but the take must have not lasted long as I figured they were just Harley's. Best view of the Guzzi is in Clint Eastwood's "Magnum Force". Except in the end on the aircraft carrier, they switched to Triumph probably for the jumps and because the Guzzi's were current issue bikes.

Agree that Magnum Force is the penultimate Guzzi flick. Motorized eye candy throughout that movie. Legendary stuntman Dar Robinson did several of the motorcycle stunts, as well as the climatic stunt when "Davis" rides the motorcycle off the aircraft carrier and into the bay at the end of the showdown between him and Callahan. In '86 he died filming Million Dollar Mystery when he rode his stunt motorcycle past the braking point of a turn and straight off a cliff. A biker to the end.
