I didn’t think that you were suggesting that. Great bikes though!

I was fishing for photos of the Guzzi

What's red and silver, yet black all over?

 

A red 1951 Black Shadow

A 1961 Beart-Norton 350cc Manx Racer.  Built by Norton, refined by Francis Beart.

Two Italians.  Nothing else to say:

Ducati MH900e

Yeah, not only an everyman pushrod motor for the masses, but the builder has used cheapo BSA/Triumph conical hubs instead of the genuine Norton AMC magnesium hubs & brake plates.

Tsk tsk.

If he'd at least painted them matt black, he may of got away with it.

Gimme a week or so.

Damn busy at the mo.

Bike is on the road, had a bit of a refit, still not refitted the front indicators due to having to machine new mounts for them on the bars a la HD.

New narrower Renthal h/bars, also means sorting a new h/bar end mirror mount out.

In fact i doubt i'll photograph/finish it for another month.

Will keep you posted once i'm happy with it.

Looks basically the same as before except the bars.

Which makes it look er, totally different....

Your wish is my command,

as i say, still got to sort R/H h/bar end mirror and front indicators out, but it's being ridden (not pushed...).

Apologies for poor quality pics.

T'is a nice looking bike but $185k which is what it costs is rich .. very .. Or as comparison there's a new breed Brough SS100 , 2018 model with less than 200 miles on it for £50,000 on E*ay .. If I had that sort of dosh to chuck at a bike I'd go for the Brough ..

50k?

Ducati 2006 Monster 1000S2R, mint 5k

Ducati 2014 Monster 1100, mint 5k

Triumph 2009 Speed Triple, mint 5k

Triumph 2001 Thunderbird Sport, mint 5k

Triumph, any air cooled Hinkley twin, modded to hell & back, better than new 8k

Moto Guzzi 2007 Cali Vintage 5k mint

Moto Guzzi current Cali, mebbe 2 y/o, 9k

Moto Guzzi 2009 1100 Griso 5k mint

Mid 90's modified HD 1200 Sportster, far better than shop stock 6k

There's 52k. I overspent by 2k, sorry.

For 185K - just think - you could have 6 30K bikes

30K Euro will buy a VERY nice bike

This 76 Guzzi is only 1/2 that figure

Mint

look at this bike!

It says the rider should use caution near the back wheel....it could tear his ass off !!
massive design fault.

When a Honda VTR Firestorm goes Rogue:

Moto Guzzi V12 X Concept

Feet back on the ground.  A nicely rebuilt 1974 Norton Commando 850:

 

I've always kinda liked that VTR thou' but the problem with them is the body work hides engine rad's and without the bodywork they are ugly as sin which means put up with it or put a rad' in the more trad' area at the front .. 

One by Lazareth .. Cluck knows where they've put the rad' on it  lest it's under the seat .. 

The single sided front end turned up on another Honda yrs ago .. 

All looks a bit dated now though .. 

 

A pair of Vellocet Venoms, the clubman  c 1961, that BRG takes a lot of beating, although most Velocetts where black.

 The scrambler was factory built, more an MSS engine with Venom insides and carb.

1930 German Standard BT1000 with MAG engine .. What a lovely lookin' bike ..
