A friend is working on an article for a bike mag on the Guzzi Daytona. One thing he has not been able to find out is the MSRP for any of the production years. Anybody have that info tucked away in some dusty file? Email me direct SVP.
Thanks in advance,

OK, this is not from a Guzzi, but I'm perplexed.
This is a cylinder liner from a Triumph T150 Trident used for vintage racing. After an oil pressure loss caused by stripped drive gears at Ridge Motorsports Park this past weekend, this was found on the center cylinder. The other two cylinders...
I learned something on my Tonti-engined Loop that I thought worth passing along.
The guides were worn in the donor Convert engine and rather than replacing the guides, I decided to go with K-Line swedged inserts. The shop that installs them reported good service and no complaints in various car...
I'm wondering if there's anybody that has access to a Quota swingarm that can measure the distance between both the outboard surfaces across the swingarm pivots. I'm curious to know if one could be installed without undue modification to a Tonti frame.
Also wonder the distance from the swingarm...
Just kidding ................. well actually, it's really tempting for a Loop. Imagine an array of vacuum tubes glowing behind the side cover panel grill!
Truth is it's not a turn signal relay, but part of a piece on "The Lost Art of cable Lacing":

From the Oz Guzzi Forum:
Who's next?
Got this from a Finnish Guzzi rider, via another Italian bike board:
"The administrators of the largest German language Guzzi-related
forum/portal, www.world-of-guzzi.de, have been contacted by the Piaggio
lawyers and told to stop use of the wqrd "Guzzi"...
Sounds like result from one of those "what's your stripper name" generators .......................... ah, hum ................. Though my favorite is "Icy Streets".
Actually, I wonder if anybody else with dellorto 40mm PHM carbs has encountered a slide sticking problem. The bike is a Tonti...
Seems that I heard one time from someplace I can't remember, that Guzzi lifters of the kind found on round-barrels were common to some sort of Fiat. Seems sensible enough - not having to source a special part & reduce production costs, etc.
Anybody know if this is actually the case and if so...
Be there !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've installed lash caps on a LM1 to get kind to the rocker faces & to keep the pushrod socket to rocker angular clearance as well as same geometry, the pushrods need to be a bit shorter. The trick seems to find a place that can provide metric spec rather and inch spec ball & socket ends.

I've found out that between the throw being a bit long & the leg shields being
an obstruction for the bottom of my shoe, that shifting on my recently completed
loop is not the best with it's toe-only shifter.
I can see now that a heel-toe shifter had its advantages.
It's a civilian regular...
Got a pair of used 36 dellortos for the loop project (w/ Convert eng., Megacycle X10, 949cc). They look like they might have come from a Ducati or somesuch. Accelerator pump adj. screws have obviously been moved.
Seems I saw somewhere a "pump 'X' times and measure output qty." procedure. Short...
Though you've probably seen this one before, here are some good images of a short-lived 4-cylinder Guzzi racer from 1953. There probably are details on it's story in Mick Walker's Guzzi Race bikes book, which I don't have. It wold be interesting to know the story behind it besides the fact that...
Just blundered into this delightful video of the SPA 4 hr. last year.
Check out the number of bikes off the grid!
Some great sequence of Manel (Jr & Sr) Segarra kicking ass and taking names!
That guy is amazing.
