That's the ultra-rare "Hello Kitty" model.

I like it
When did Guzzi change sides with the shift/rear brake or was that a UK model?

The change was during the '69 model year in the US. Euro Loops had right foot shift a bit longer.

Looks amazingly stock for something with a pink paintjob. Kind of like when I see a house painted pink (apologies to anyone with a pink house): What. Would. Posess. You. To. Paint. It. Pink.

I feel bad already for saying that.

No, I do believe that handlebar might be "rose" colored...

If it was the "original color that faded", the pink would only be on the tank, since the fenders would have been silver. If it was a later ('68-'69) red V700 the fenders would have been white. It's a repaint, maybe for a wife or girlfriend.  :wink:

in the listing, color is listed as "custom", so I'll take that to mean it's nothing like a stock color may have been. I too thought it was simply the photo/monitor playing tricks. Pink and realtree, there's a combo for ya.
