GuzziMoto Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 The rake of the front forks is a little extreme, but that looks pretty cool. I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
po18guy Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 A lot of torque to feed through that MG trans. But - finally! A Guzzi with an accessible oil filter! I see that the flyscreen really is a screen. The wiring...well. I find it reminiscent of this homebuilt V8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBBenson Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 I almost bought a Tatra 603 when I lived in Germany. But the export became problematic, as the older Tatras were considered "cultural artifacts". The country was being looted after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Air cooled 3.5L V-8, with an interesting temperature controlled vacuum actuated system of vanes to direct air for cooling as needed. Also an insane Rube-Goldberg linkage from column shifter all the way back to the transmission at the back. Eerily quiet at speed, as all the engine noise disappears in the slipstream and all you really hear is mild wind noise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docc Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 The discussion in German makes this seem all so sensible! The only thing I understood was, "Burble-burble-burble- VARRRROOOOOM!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I understood was, "Burble-burble-burble- VARRRROOOOOM!" The first video docc has subtitles. I hate to say it but it's rather neat and well thought out and engineered. Not made to negotiate corners of course but then neither is a Harley. Ciao 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Maynard Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Much better than the Boss Hoss that I made the mistake of paying ten dollars to demo at Americade many years ago. This is wild but not a caricature of a motorcycle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
