yes, and I didn't order. They slipped in a 1 after the R, I just noticed

agreed. Ali express has them on sale for $1.89, weird though, they look right - made in usa. I put 5 in my cart and showed 5.94 shipping and delivery on June 15. Probably China but who knows? I've got 10 backup so idk. Could be the last of them yeah? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001178097097.html?aff_platform=true&aff_short_key=UneMJZVf&isdl=y&src=bing&albch=shopping&acnt=42005546&isdl=y&aff_short_key=UneMJZVf&albcp=373871275&albag=1308419064071836&slnk=&trgt=pla-4585375808811125&plac=&crea=81776241344382&netw=s&device=c&mtctp=e&utm_source=Bing&utm_medium=shopping&utm_campaign=PA_Bing_customlabel1_US_PC&utm_content=customlabel1%3D7&utm_term=g8he-1c7t-r1-dc12 relay&msclkid=9a9de3f7fb191aec0c38836cbe0b95ab

seems they've about doubled in price

Techron and an Italian tune-up!..... both on my near horizon

this will help with install. the other 3 pieces should be clear.

Represent! 1.2% of the population ownes a Guzzi! Heaven.

Go for it. I want to see it. Some say why, some say why not. Just make the hack as elegant as the bike already is.

Fritz Egli built racing frames for several makes of Motorcycle. Famously so in the 70's, I think he still makes some.

don't know yet about a sale but, I don't want anything to do with "app controlled features" on my motorcycle, especially the brakes. God when will it end.

Dave it's a movie series on Amazon prime now called the Himalayas Calling. Like long way round but shorter and cheaper. They supposedly were alone with no chase vehicles. Link in 'Adventure bikes'

Speaking of aerial view, the video link I posted in Adv Bikes shows some intriguing drone shots of 2 riders with no assistance, riding in some great scenery. Can a drone be programmed to follow the operator?

Now I know where all the Nortons are. Egli are best with Vincent imo. Etched in my mind for decades... Hands down the best looking motorcycle ever. A local gent imported this one this past summer. $$$$$. Thanks again for posting motoporn. Inspirational. Makes me think of getting another ..

I wouldn't know anything Guzzi specific one wouldn't look at on any 20 year old bike. My "list" starts with my perception, judgement if you will, of the owner. If the owner is suspect, so be the bike. After that I'd guess the first thing I try to do is match the mileage with visible wear points. Brake discs, gas tank, seat, and foot rest rub areas. The place on the top tree where the keyfob hits in the wind. One of my peeves is bugs and bug spots that were clearly not seen to in a timely fashion. The owner that let's the surface go, I figure let's below the surface go as well. If anything Guzzi specific comes to mind I guess I'd say electrics. Be sure all works as it should with no funny stuff going on. A few years ago I was so ready to jump on a pristine 2001 and ready to drive a great distance to get it. At the last minute the seller revealed a mysterious wiring job done by the po. I had to pass on it. Everything said, it depends on your knowledge and comfort level with repairs. And THAT said, this forum and learned members have done a great deal to sort out or help others sort their bikes in the past. Will you see it in person or at a distance? Got any photos or details?

very nice! what sort of muffler is that?

welcome buttaknife. here's a recent battery thread

that looks ab fab!

Ok. I will box it up and get a quote to ship. PM me your address. thanks

I still have this one...

If you have Amazom Prime it's free to watch now. Kinda like the Long Way Round but closer to reality. Two Germans, Germany to India, no chase vehicles, just them. Pretty good. Himilaya Calling https://www.amazon.com/Germany-Caspian-Sea/dp/B08KWP26Y6/ref=sr_1_1?crid=ZI3L27BTL43B&dchild=1&keywords=himalaya+calling&qid=1620359009&s=instant-video&sprefix=himalay%2Cinstant-video%2C176&sr=1-1

pretty sure that's a repro of a Benelli Mojave tank. Isn't an early 1100 Sport tank steel? Seems like that would fit the later spine... kinda, sorta.

Forum : = it's how we find out about the rest of the world. Input is welcomed.

Curious about your homeland ozrider23. Got any road photos? any other Guzzi about?

I blame the hammer

that took awhile
