Hello All,
I’m new to the forum so pardon me while I find my feet.
I have acquired some Guzzi parts that I would like to use as a starting point for a café racer project. Thus far I have:
1/ 1974 V7 Sport complete engine, gearbox, Swingarm and rear drive (drum brake model)
2/ A Tonti frame from a 1977 Convert.
I need help with wheel options. I would like to know what rear wheels (if any) are compatible with the V7 sport rear drive and also front-end options. I have little to no chance of acquiring the original drum drake Borrani originals. They appear to be very rare and financially uneconomical if found So, I assume disk brake wheels would be a possibility. I’m open to cast wheels also. I have prior experience building British bikes, this is my first Moto Guzzi build.
Any help would be appreciated.
