Production Numbers

[CptBeaky]

Do any of you walking (riding?) Guzzi encyclopedias know a place I can find info on production numbers for various Guzzi models? I found some numbers for Centauros but I'd be interested to see more of the models and years.

There's a reason why nobody has jumped on this to answer your (seemingly) routine question.  You'd think that the numbers would be known, but I wouldn't be surprised if Guzzi wasn't all that sure, themselves.  You should not assume that every serial number in a series has a corresponding motorcycle attached to it.  Anyway, here's a list of ranges of frame numbers from which you can extract something close to what you're after:

I think trying to find accurate numbers of a given model that have been imprted to the US is almost hopeless.  The general answer for all models is "not very many."

Thanks for the reply. With current regs (where I live), any model with less than 1500 units made worldwide per year get reduced insurance/registration rates from the age of 15 on. I think some of the Guzzis might fit in there, but as you say, it's hard to be sure.
