Ok but none of them can even come close to the charging network. All the other EV makers are years behind Tesla. Sorry but it’s a fact. I don’t like Elon either but I bought the car not the mouth. If I could get anything it would be the model S plaid. 0-60 in under 2 seconds. 1/4 mile 9.5 seconds. or maybe the Cyber truck once it’s released.

Yeah, it’s like Christmas! I think I have every little nut bolt and screw ever used by Guzzi. Many head gaskets but no base gaskets. No u joints, carbs or body work. Did get a brand new saddle for a Convert or G5 type and a crash bar for same..A new tubeless rear rim for a 98 era EV and a bare Borrani rim.. New Veglia speedos and tach..Loads of cables..coils, TPS’s and so on. Got a lot of electrical parts to use on my 75 Eldorado restore. I’m putting together a data base of all the part numbers but it will take several more days, there are thousands of small items. When the list is finished I’ll publish it for interested folks. I’m not wanting to get rich, just recover my investment with small profit so some good deals might be had. AND, this dealership was also a BMW store. The guy wants me to buy all that inventory too. I’d need a box truck to haul all that and a rental space to store it, still thinking that over. These signs are so cool but fragile so not sure I want them. there are probably over 30 bikes covered in dust or dirt.. most are pretty worn but there are two brand new Cal Vintage or Black Eagles.. I think it would take about $6000 to buy one of them. A 2016 Stelvio. And new version Eldorado that already sOld. the business has been closed for probably 10 or more years.. Judson Cycle in Lake Crystal Minnesota.

That’s true.. I guess no one knows what they are . I don’t think they are Guzzi at all. Another thought was bar risers for a BMW? I just scored a load of NOS Guzzi parts and some BMW stuff is mixed in. it will take some time to inventory all the stuff and it’s mostly older than V11 but when I get organized I’ll post a spread sheet of parts and sell for very reasonable price..more as a service to Guzzi folk than a profit maker. lots of rubber bushings, seals and a gazillion small parts, nuts and bolts etc. I did see a red pork chop but don’t remember what side and a front fender from the red 2002 Lemans and/or a Rosso Mandello. also got myself a 1975 Eldorado

If I was you Mick I’d be moving to the states pretty darn quick.

How would they know if you changed the handlebars? That’s crazy.

On WG it was suggested these were foot peg mounts for a V11..aftermarket adjustable. Anyone recognize ?

Almost as fast as the Ducati I had, with higher top speed.

EBay does not allow messaging phone numbers even if you spell some numbers there bot can find and cancel the message. There are ways to get it through tho if clever.

if I hadn’t just bought two loop frames I would be on my way to Indiana right now. Black 2003 Lemans with 4500 miles. $3500 https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/504276461825580/?__cft__[0]=AZWLfS-sdq_Ruf8crx0mJvI_f_vulcJCJTobTG-Epxi8jCu1CRAryGyz45smHbpp8Wape0pTWPwEg8cx_DlfLQfMSIO2pWt93gdaQhtK22vKv84dpPbg6CF81IQsT1xyOb4yR0hJ0tk0O1M_Vx7vGCB31RcCBH5VgTU1kujeujWVOmNOvYHGy9tfMDVtkGEbKLBFpYZAQ_q0OxSGy7iYRrAf&__tn__=-UK-R

Ok. But having owned a Buell and Hyperstrada I’m pretty sure I’d be disappointed with a SB. That could change tho I guess since I get my speed fix in my Tesla (M3) now, it’s faster than any bike I’ve ever owned or ridden. My friends model S can do the quarter mile in 9.5 seconds, 145mph. Top speed 200. I have not received any awards from the highway patrol, yet.

Well to me SB’s are not race bikes and that build looks like a replica race bike. No offense meant..

😂 the aluminum work is admirable but on a small block? Meh..

My friends 02 Scurra went through 2 in 70,000 miles.

I would want to inspect the clutch carefully.

sure, Canon 6D EF100-400, ISO 250, 340mm, f5.6, 1/320s 16 mp 5045x3257 4.9MB. THE STORY IS. All the restoration creds go to my friend John U.. stripped to the bone and rebuilt with a lot of new parts (Gilardoni kit of course) in 2003.. He’s clearing out the Guzzi stuff and keeping 2 Corvettes. I bought it earlier this year but was busy and too hot to work on it till now. Pretty much all I did was put the tank back on and connected with some new gas and battery she struggled for a moment then fired up. Carbs were clean but not in sync and I got stuck figuring out a stuck choke which took longer than it should have but last time I owned a bike with carbs was my first Convert around the late 90’s. Since then only FI , a V11 Lemans, Bassa, Uly, and Hyperstrada. The Buell and Ducati were monstrously fast. I’m in the slow lane now with drum brakes etc.. Sunday rider.. when I want torq or speed I take my Tesla. Then the dogs can come too.

Not a V11 but today I rode my Ambo around a few blocks, fresh from a 6 year nap.

Sadly the listing was removed.. lucky for me

I do host at Smugmug, that’s how I can post the full size still pic bit when I paste the video link it doesn’t load. here’s the link of first start. https://photos.smugmug.com/Ambo/i-MPQSRGv/0/36e3bf96/1280/2023071520590495-7007034481843193595--1280.mp4

how do I post a video here?

Yes, the tank had a dent and CG repaired and painted it to the tune of a few thousand. Receipts call the bars civilian. But if you mean the bars on the full dress bike thats not mine just a pic from the web. My tank not mounted yet, I’ll get to that tomorrow.

I got the bike home, what a sweaty job, it was about 90f and 90 humidity.. got it started for the first time in 6 years. It was put up nicely with clean carbs and tank. We just filled the float bowls to see if it would run and it does. I won’t get time to mount the tank and test ride until Monday. I’ll get some good pics then. I’m really pleased with the acquisition. 42k but had a total take down to the last bolt in 2003.. has the Gilardoni kit and a lot of parts were replaced and re chromed etc..10k since the restoration.

They are enormous DB bags, (Dan Brown?) that were modified by the PO.. he did a fantastic job and it wasn’t easy. Cut and re fiber glassed smoothed and painted. here’s another bike with the bags in original shape, note the bump out on the back which had some running or brake lights, he cut those off so the turn signals fit better. Aesthetically mine look a lot classier.
