'75 850T cafe for sale
« on: April 18, 2016, 02:32:38 PM »
I've reluctantly listed my lovely T café on Ebay if anyone wants to have a look. I wanted to list it in the swap meet here but couldn't get pictures to load. I'll pull it from ebay if anyone wants to make a serious offer. PM be for details.
Thanks,
Steve

Damn, that's a nice bike! I met you last year at the Owls Head Museum bike show last year. I had my BMW with me that day. I wish I could buy it now.

That has me rethinking my plan to get a Stelvio. Yes, I know, it's nothing like the other, but that era was what made me fall in love with Guzzi in the first place!

Good golly but that is BEAUTIFUL!

There is not one single element of that motorcycle, in that picture, which jumps out as being aesthetically incompatible. Nearly every "cafe", bobber or "special" which one sees has some aspect (or several) which the builder either had no time to address or simply lacked the vision to notice.

This looks absolutely like a possible offering in Guzzi's distant past.

Gotta be tough to let that one go.

Karen knew something was awry when I gave her the checkbook and told her to hide it.  What a totally lovely bike!

Yeah, that one is stunning.
I hope the sales process turns out well and it finds a deserving and loving new owner.

I hope you're screening prospective buyers so this bike does not end up in some idiots kids hands.

I so admire anyone who has the patience to create such beauty.

Well Done!

Interesting. Didn't know it had ended up in Maine of all places.

Kind of miss it. well sorted out after 4-5 years of fiddling and tweaking then on to the next project which got flogged off for the next one which I think I'll keep ('73 Ducati 750 GT). Plan to keep my Loop too.

Here's a picture of it in Vancouver right before I sold it with 'look through' where the battery used to be and the stock front fender.
