richard100t Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I was just looking at some Guzzi's on Ebay for kicks and I came upon the strangest looking guzzi ever. This thing looks like some monster ate an Ambassador and a V11 Sport, half digested them and then vomited the results onto Ebay. I was kind of chuckling about the cartoon nature of the thing until I noticed that there were ACTUAL BIDS on the thing! Its currently at $18500 usd. Now of course I have to wonder if one of you guys in here are bidding on it? Well, its still winter here in Ohio and since I cant ride em I'm reduced to looking at em! lol Take a look on Ebay and tell me what you think! Link to comment

The Monkey Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 There is nothing wrong with copper paint, flame jobs, round heads, outrageous saddles or LSD. One can only hope to run across such loopy machinery on the road as meeting the owner definitely adds to the trip. Link to comment

GraeV11 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I know it is not a chopper but just chanced across this (apologies if it has been on here before)> i think it is a thing of beauty but would fold in half at the first corner ? Link to comment

raz Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 That's the second custom Guzzi I see with the heads shifted side to side. RAM intake runners Link to comment

Well that certainly is... um... stylish? That's not a bike, it's piece from a mobile: it should be hanging from the ceiling in some art gallery or museum somewhere! I kinda like the look of the roundfin valve covers on the squarehead cylinders tho': are there any problems w/ that in the wild? Do either/or roundfin or squarehead cylinder guards work with that, or are you SOL for precautionary protective bumpers if you decide to go that route? Just curious: it's an interesting blend of Guzzi-old & -new... Link to comment
Skeeve Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 maybe this time BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Thanks for that! I needed a good laugh to start my day! I laughed so hard at that my face sprang a leak! That is so comically ugly, I can't bring myself to over it: I only have to imagine someone else [anyone else: just not me, Lord; please, not me! ] riding it in public & I start laughing again!

Well you can see that the guy put a lot of time and thought into making the bike. Everything was really well painted and polished and all. It looks like there was a lot of custom fabrication too. I cant say that its my cup of tea, but I Iove that there are guys out there creating new things with a Guzzi. He might have been able to pull it off with a different gas tank, but then the seat is too low and so on. Link to comment
felix42o Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 That's the second custom Guzzi I see with the heads shifted side to side. RAM intake runners Seems like that'd be hard on the exhaust valves. Fueling would be a b*&ch as well I'd bet. Link to comment
