Completely forgot till you mentioned it. I have the same. 2 copies. Have you bought the tee? Now you have to hunt down the rest of the memorabilia. There is also a patch and a pin. ;-T

Distinctive bike and may not be the best out there but gets the looks. ;)

T-shirt? I might need that...lol

Paul
Your Daytona certainly qualifies as very special. I have been following on your site for a number of years and enjoy seeing your ingenuity and craftsmanship. Is the oil cooler adapter something you were able to purchase or something of your own design and manuafactur?

I have the V sump that has the filter in front, I used an adapter that fits under the filter, part form the car shop. Oilcooler is v11 type.

Mine is just a pile of bits at the moment but I have just bought a Daytona RS which was raced in Thunderbikes in the UK. Frame has been modified to same dimensions as the Raceco Daytona which was raced in the 1990s and a friend is building me a big bore motor.

Anyone know other sources of lighter wheels apart from PVM and OZ?
Guzzirider,

This sounds like a great project. Please keepus informed and post pictures as your project progresses. Not a lot of choices for wheels, I believe Dymag is no longer in business. Check Pauls site or contact him and he may be able to help.

I just had a friend drop off three copies of the '93 Daytona wiring diagram printed on 11" x 17" paper in full color, a size that you can really use to work from. I only need one for myself, so the other two are available at no charge, first come first served. Just PM me with your address if you would like one of the two. I will have to fold and crease it unless you want to stand the cost of a tube mailing (about $10)

A friend is visiting the firm who have taken over Dymag after it went bust. He is taking some Dymag Daytona wheels with him to see if they can do another production run. I'll keep you posted.

Nice - but too skinny ;) (jealousy is an ugly thing)

Anyway - here's mine:

One of the very first european 1992 models, which I bought from the former Danish Guzzi importer in 2007. Until then, then bike had never had license plates, and it had only done 10K miles. it's all original. I love it.

Merry X-mas to everyone

I took this photograph in Lucca, Italy. At this point in its life, the bike looked like it had been ridden very hard without much concern for it, but the builder did a nice job. The combined tank and fairing is a very nice bit (if not very convenient).

My own is not far removed from stock.

On the fairing plexiglass there is a cell# below "VENDESI" which means "For sale", may still be.

Through in the Louis Vuitton bag collection and there you have it. The price of freedom and domestic harmony on a personal level. ;D

Found this while surfing, Daytona ? Certainly is a lot of engine.

Tom · « **Reply #54 on:** August 20, 2012, 04:38:33 PM »

Looks like what's his face's in Holland. Forum member. Heavily modded. He's running carbs on it. IIRC. ;-T

pcoumbe · « **Reply #55 on:** August 20, 2012, 04:51:06 PM »

Looks like a beast, also found this other one, very similar, looks like same pipes. I'd love to get my hands on a good, original Daytona, but i've only ever found 5 Guzzis in this country, a couple of Dingo's, 750 Breva, 1100 Scura and my Imola.

He`s been building it for a few years now. I think it rocks. Thankfully both guys had the sense not to do the black wheel thing, which makes any bike except an orange KTM look like an old steel wheeled 60's Ford with no hubcaps. Can you imagine a Daytona with black wheels....ugly!
