docc Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 It is an abomination and should be cast out.. Haha - that, alone, should make the builders proud! *shocking!* And I thought I was was pushing the envelope finishing my alt cover in Zn-chromate!

Scud Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 (edited) Not a V11, but a very nice custom CARC by a builder who (like Docc) paid tribute to Carcano. http://www.pipeburn.com/home/2016/09/22/moto-guzzi-mgr-1200-radical-guzzi.html# The above story says that the factory supported this effort. It's even on the Moto Guzzi corporate page. http://www.motoguzzi.com/en_EN/news/MGR-1200-wins-Essenza-public-design-competition/ Is it possible that we will see something along these lines to compete with R9T BMWs and Triumph Thruxtons? (If so, it probably won't have CARC rear-end.) Edited December 26, 2016 by docc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I'm not a fan of customs in general, but.. I've decided that I'd look good on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knumbnutz Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Thats a neat looking bike. Well done Not a V11, but a very nice custom CARC by a builder who (like Docc) paid tribute to Carcano. http://www.pipeburn.com/home/2016/09/22/moto-guzzi-mgr-1200-radical-guzzi.html# The above story says that the factory supported this effort.

GuzziMoto Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Finally a custom Guzzi I would actually want to ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plexiform Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I've posted this one before in the dream bikes link. I have yet to see a nicer custom guzzi than this one made by Radical Guzzi.

LowRyter Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 When I see those huge (Brat) front tires (bias?), it seems to defeat the entire purpose of a performance cafe racer. I would really like to see a 1400 built for performance rather that a pseudo version. I guess the giveaway was the Tonti Frame which is retro cool but not cutting edge for sure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbennett Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Actually when I saw the thread title I thought it said "compromised V11's". This makes me think I am biased on this topic, being of the opinion that it is easy to take things to far with a V11 since the orig. styling was quite good for its day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ummmmmm What do you mean for its day lol. I do not think anything made by Moto Guzzi today looks as good as the V11 Sport/LaMans bikes. But hey I have been told a time or two I am getting old lol. But I have had a wild thought of a breathed on Moto Guzzi 1400 cc Engine placed in a V11 chassis. Or why not a Super Charger placed on top of the engine between the cylinders. A smaller whipple design would be nice fed by a newer fuel injected throttle body or old school with a Holley 750 DP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docc Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Ok, also not an actual V11, but for those of us with zinc chromate in our veins: Ipothesys Aria V12: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
czakky Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 That is gorgeous!Ok so after I win the lottery the question becomes Ipothesys or millepercento?http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZfTOu-vTHLU/VKXcfp3Q_xI/AAAAAAAAGz8/3HJXnw-HMxA/s1600/MPC%2BOfficine%2BRossopuro%2BScighera%2BMoto%2BGuzzi.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swooshdave Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 This 1100 Sport (?) looks pretty good to me. From http://www.moto-studio.com/gallery/ There were several MotoStudio bikes at Barber last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milar Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I generally keep my Scura pretty stock. But this one from Japan has tested me many times. If you click on the thread you'll find some beautiful photographs in Tokyo.
