Guzzi continues to amaze me with the range of engines they've produced.

I spotted this one at a Guzzi shop in Tuscany. I asked the guy if it was a two-stroke and he sais yes.

Now we know where Yamaha stole their RD-250 from  Bigsmile

That's Mark's "ethnick" (sp) isn't it?


No;  I took this photograph of Mark's bike in 1998:

(In best David Attenborough voice.) "See how by using a real motorbike as a decoy the hunters have managed to attract a large group of repellent smallblocks to one place. This makes exterminating these pests so much easier as once they have congregated the decoy can withdraw and a punishing fusilade will see a healthy removal of yet another gaggle of these noisome vermin!"

Nah! That little grenade, (And they were pretty fragile!) was entirely home built. The RD Yams were copies/evolutions of designes they pinched off Suzuki who in turn were responsible for getting Ernst Degner to defect from East Germany in the late fifties/early sixties from MZ. Yup. Sorry guys. The Japanese dominance of the world's motorcycle industry started with a defecting Communist. He and Mr.Honda had it all sown up. We in the west just handed it all to them on a plate. If you look at the crap the Americans and Europeans were hawking at the time it's no surprise that the Japanese cleaned up. The only reason the Italian manufacturers survived was absurd tarifs on imports and heavy subsidization of home built product. The Poms just flushed their arses down the drain.

Oh dear!





Silent Hektic wasted spark ignition. Avoid. My mate John's bike. He wasn't happy.

I break wind in the face of the GS 'Adventure Tourer' crowd!



The big 'ol Gris gets taken places most of the BMW boys'd wet their pants just lookin' at!



Nice shit in the top end of the new motor.



Makes nice figgers too, even though its stupid rich at the top end.



Before the green 'un there was the yella 'un!



My mate Johnny died on that one. Killd by a Toadist.



Yup! Older than dirt! Typical Stelvio owner! The young lad is the importer's tech boy. Good value young Daniel. He was up 'Running in' (Read 'Flogging the clacker off') the new NTX.



Yup! You need special tools and a tight arsehole to get the seal carrier out of a CARC!



Easy once you've broken the SF though! Bigsmile



Built like a brick shithouse! Infinitely superior to that weedy, flabby BMW effort! (NB. You're not supposed to be able to take them down this far! Twofinger)



Gratuitous picture of horse shit and skidmarks!



Pinko Defuncto in a typical Guzzi owner's garage!



One day, when I'm lder than dirt, I'll have one of these! Best of the 'Old' Hi Cams,



Yummy!!!!

I'd seen that unit in a previous itteration at Mark's shop, (Guzzi Classics in Long beach.) At that time it didn't have the Eldo tank. It's a nice little outfit in a barking mad sort of way Bigok

wow....
except the first time it falls over and that attractive red porkchop that holds the engine fractures...

Still; you've got to admire the shear crazyness of the excercise.
