Daniel Kalal Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I posted this over at the WildGuzzi site, but it's such a nice little clip that I thought I'd put it here, too (from the Mandello del Lario GMG 2006). V7 Sport Video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Kalal Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 Cool! Is there more? No, sorry. When I started shooting (just a pocket Canon camera), I didn't know that he was even going to start the thing up. I just lucked out in having this nice bit recorded.

Guest cduzzi Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Great clip. Tell us more about the event, unless you've already posted that and I missed it. Loved the sound! I was at the Guzzi Riders in Texas meet yesterday and saw a nice V-7, but basically stock and no fairing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlaing Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 If a picture is worth a thousand words, than a video is worth many times that, and that video, more concisely than a thick novel, explains why many of us choose a Guzzi! Bellissimo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luhbo Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Who's the rider, or as some like to call him, "the old man"? Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macguzzi Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 That bike looks like one of the original V7 sports endurance racer's from 1972 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luhbo Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 That bike looks like one of the original V7 sports endurance racer's from 1972 In fact it is! When I remember right it was raced in Imola. Have to check my pix at home. Probably the rider was an original as well. Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badmotogoozer Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 That bike looks like one of the original V7 sports endurance racer's from 1972 A racer with a starter? Rj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badmotogoozer Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Easy enough to retro fit the starter... Rear brake looks more stock than racer too. Without the owner confirmation, I would think this a replica, but who knows? Most original racers with history remain as they were raced, but who knows what owners have done? Very sweet bike none the less! Rj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luhbo Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Here is another picture of the bike. It would be a good entrance for "the sexiest..." thread as well: Hubert Now when I look closer at the two bikes then I think we see two different ones. The stickers are different, the coils are different and other things also. Anyway, thank you for the video. You don't have a longer version, do you?

Daniel Kalal Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 Who's the rider, or as some like to call him, "the old man"? Hubert I asked Alis Agostini if she knew who the man was. Here's her reply: Dear Daniel, sorry for being so late in replying but I find myself at the end of each day without knowing where the time has gone. The man with the black jacket is Mario- He is the owner of Ristorante Al Verde in Mandello that many Guzzi lovers know as it is the place where many go to eat. The bike is owned by him and Roberto Patrignani (a journalist quite famous who writes about motorbikes on italian magazines) and has been mounted and prepared by Bruno Scola a quite well known mechanic of the Italian Guzzi world (you may had met him while you were here as actually he is working in our workshop).
