I saw one last weekend in Charlotte.  Cool bikes.  I'm by fascinated the Camel and would love to see a modern version of it.

Cool bike, but doesn't that price seem crazy?

Some people say it is, as apparently it is not stock paint and has some other differences.
But some stock ones in much rougher condition are supposedly worth $5K

Bottom line is these things are rare, this is the first one I've ever seen for sale, so it's up to you what you think it's worth given the opportunity presented.

Beware of rare Italian motorcycles..... from a former owner of a modern Moto Guzzi. Parts are nonexistent, dealer/manufacturer support is nonexistent, ya wan t to sell it...... marlet is nonexistent. As always, YMMV.

From wildguzzi.com:

Some stuff from Herdan Corp. in Port Clinton, PA: http://www.herdan.com/ the rest from North Leicester Motorcycles in the UK: http://www.northleicestermotorcycles.com/

Some bits are the same as other Italian bikes of the period.

I remember seeing a Moto Morini in a bike show/swap meet in the early 80s.  I think it was a 3 1/2...what I remember was it was so completely narrow, long and low...you'd have to reach waaaaay forward over the  long, narrow tank to reach the low, narrow bars...I loved it!  It looked fast and dangerous (which, to me, was what motorcycling was all about...).  I'd never heard the name "Moto Morini" before, but I remembered it from then on.
