That Guzzi Smelll
« on: March 19, 2026, 08:46:34 PM »
Maybe due to the T-3 being with carbs and the crankcase vented straight to the air the garage always smells of Guzzi after a ride. That is a good thing.

My Buell Blast has a smell.  So much so people have ask "how much Marijuana to you have stashed in the garage". None.  I tracked the smell down to the drve belt rubber.

Drive belts for the Blast were not being made.  I had a company cut down custom made belts and was selling them.  Had several hanging on a hook in inventory.
