  • There is ZERO tolerance on personal attacks and ANY HYPERLINKS to PRODUCT(S) or other competing website(s), including personal pages, social media or other Forums.

  • Like the new V100, GuzziTech is full throttle into the future! We're now running on an all-new server and we've updated our Forum software.

I have two Guzzi's, problem is I barely have time to ride and maintain one let alone two. I have a 1981 SP1000 which has been cafe'd mildly. The other woman is a 2001 California which has seen the brunt of the action in the last 5 years, 87000 Kms. I love them both but I have decided to only keep one. I have tried to sell the SP but nobody has come up with a reasonable offer for it (a cvmg member in Sudbury offered me $500.00 for it :shock: )

I'm thinking of converting the Cali into an updated version of the cafe'd SP by swapping the body parts from the SP to the Cali as well as swapping the final drive, rear sets, Dunstall replicas, and adding a BMW R90S fairing into the mix. After all is said and done I will be left with skeleton of a bike which I will sell of as parts (I hate this idea).

Anybody want to rescue the SP before I start dismantling it this fall/winter? Here is a short video I took in the spring of 2008
