  1. The good news is that perusing eBay shows plenty of 12mm fuel hose available mostly because it's used on your finer German automobiles. For example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-325-1600-750iL-840Ci-850CSi-850i-M3-M5-Fuel-Hose-6-X-12-mm-High-Pressure/190865331010?epid=671265736&hash=item2c7075d342:g:LaEAAOSwwpdW3lVD&vxp=mtr Those cars are fuel injected so it will be high pressure hose. Still looking for braided hose that's not 1/2in. May be tougher.
  2. Pickup lines that never work...
  3. Can you imagine if Guzzi did that to the heads? Run the exhaust down and then they could share the intakes much easier.
  4. So who else wants to tear apart their bevel box now? Is this something you'd see if you fished a camera down the filler hole?
  5. Sure think you'd lose a little power with the 2 into 1.
  6. Y'all needed an excuse to go to Barber, right?
  7. I picked one of these up at Barber this year. You can order one just like it for $4.95, which is $.05 less than what I paid! Of course you need to add shipping... https://www.modernsuede.com/collections/key-chains/products/motoguzzi-motorcycle-key
  8. I bet if the owner doesn’t know then the chaps at MI might. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. I’d be asking why the black motor. Do the numbers on the engine match the frame? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Sadly it’s got some scratches from the past so it not pristine. I’m not a big fan of more than one key. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. One of my favorite scores was this embroidered key fob at the swap meet. $5 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. How much is it? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. I omitted a whole bunch of stuff and now have a very rigid mount. I found a nut the same size as the hole in the chrome cap. I threaded that on followed by a couple washers then the nut supplied with the kit. Tightened everything up and done. That simple. I just spin the whole thing on. Solid, no cutting and simple. If it loosens you just take some pliers and take the chrome nut off. It shouldn’t be that tight anyways. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. He calls it the "new V11 Sport". The forensic scientist in me says this dates it to somewhere around the turn of the century.
  15. Of course Barber has the Ghezzi-Brian AND a MGS-01...
  16. Drips.... ugly? I can appreciate the engineering, but some of it is just not well proportioned or very aesthetic. It is safe from me lol. Now.. if we are talking MGS-01 Corsa... YES PLEASE. There is more than a passing resemblance between the two. I'll take either.
  17. Oh, I hadn't seen it in red before. I may need to lay down.
  18. That is the only way you would get it to fit. The fairing just wouldn't go with the stock tank. At all.
  19. Oh, it would be an adventurer, but if you were handy with a welder or knew someone who was...
  20. http://www.airtech-streamlining.com/guzzi/ghezzibrian.htm Rough math has it at $625? Then you would have to get it painted and build the framework to mount it. And seat upholstered. Totally worth it! Now I just need to find a rough V11 or 1100i...
  21. Lighter frame, wheels, bodywork... shall I go on?
  22. I vote custom frame. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. So a V11 engine with a five speed box? Interesting they didn't use the six speed.
  24. I may have shared similar shots before but I thought I'd consolidate them here. I just find the little details on this bike fascinating. Especially the foot levers. I get drawn to this bike each time I visit the Barber Museum and this time was no different. This time I notice the brake pedal also pivots like the shifter. I wonder how that feels? Enjoy.
  25. When it hit the coast it was a hurricane!
