Skeeve Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 not having these bikes in the states,would like know something about them& between them IIRC, they're both 4v small blocks, so the only significant differences btw them would be the displacement? Monza 500cc & Imola 350cc? Good question, but the small blocks don't seem to get a lot of traffic outside their own little Yahoo! groups & such...

Skeeve Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 guess i'll have to do research-or ask hayes&woodberry.thanks Remembered one of my books that might have some small-block specs & pulled it out: sure enough, there was some info! Of course, it's Mick Walker, so all data is suspect, but from what I can extract, the v35 Imola II, v50 Monza II, v65 Lario & some V75 models are 4v heads (marked with "****" below.) From pics, the v50 Monza II looks like a scaled down version of the LeMansIII. You'll note that the 4v heads were all only produced for a couple years, & then Guzzi reverted to the 2v head designs after running into too many failures [symptomatic of rushing a poorly engineered product to market. ] Some production year info: v35 77-79 v35II 80-85 & 85-88 (updated version? text unclear, just listed two different runs in separate places.) v35c 82-85 v35 Imola 79-83 v35 Imola II 84-85 **** v35TT 84-85 v35 Florida 87-92 350 Trentacinque GT 87-92 350 NTX 87-91 350 Nevada 91-94 350 Nevada NT 95-97 350 Nevada Club 98- v50 77-79 v50II 79-80 v50III 81-85 v50c 82-85 v50 Monza 80-83 v50 Monza II 84-85 **** v65 81-85 v65SP 81-85 v65c 82-85 v65 Lario 84-85 **** v65TT 84-85 v65TT Baja 84-86 v65 Florida 87-92 650 Sessantacinque GT 87-92 650 NTX 87-93 V75 85-87 **** 750SP 89-91 750 Targa 90-93 750 NTX 88-93 750T 91-93 750 Nevada 91-94 750 Nevada NT 95-97 750 Nevada Club 98- 750 Strada 94-95
