Just got it firing!
I have owned several Guzzis but never an early LeMans. The closest was a CX100. I'm looking at a bike that might be an early LeMans. The title calls it a 1976 model. The motor # is VE 071818. There is a tag on the steering head stamped 071818. This frame # does not show up on any ID lists I have been able to find. Would a different # be stamped in the frame? Was the frame tag something installed on US models?
I'm new to this site. I've done searches to see if this has been addressed in another thread but did not come up with any results. I know there are plenty of T models wearing LeMans body work or V7 body work. I actually owned a very nice T-3 set up like a V7 Sport and enjoyed it. I did not misrepresent my T3 as a V7 when selling it but I know some of that goes on.
The seller on this LeMans is an honest guy. He is just as confused as I am about the ID issues.
Thanks in advance for the help.
