gstallons Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 at least they didn't "chopper" it (yet) ? I think anyone who does this should be in an asylum. It's a good thing he didn't own a Buell or Britten....
RHIP Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 I'm sorry...I own and love my Rosso Mandello. The guy put a lot of work into this, but all I can think of is that I hope that the dog in the second photo peed on the guy's leg for doing this. What WAS he thinking?
wheelsucker Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 That's not a Rosso w/ a sidecar. That's a sidecar with Guzzi controls and driveline. Whomever did that should be taken to Mandello and beaten in the town square. They took a beautiful Guzzi and F'd it up, what a shame.
waspp Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 That is just not right!! Not only a beautiful bike but rare as well! <_>
richard100t Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 I have a Rosso Mandello as well. I personally dont think thats a good bike for a sidecar but hey, its a free country lol. When you look at it I dont think it would take much to bing it back to stock. It just has the forks removed & something connecting the car to the bike.
fotoguzzi Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 that is brilliant! did you guys notice the sidecar frame holds the front wheel? ever seen another one? should be proud he chose a guzzi for that design! Not sayin I'd do it to my LeMans mind you.
Admin Jaap Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 Don't have any details on it, but in Germany there is this RM with "flexible" sidecar:
BRENTTODD Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 I think the fab work on that bike was done very well done. Maybe he used a rare bike to make his point to sell the Idea.
Jap In OZ Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 I really don't see the problem why not use a rosso for a sidecar outfit! It would have been a waste of a perfectly good scura but a rosso? ) In any case i never understood the whole sidecar thing untill I drove one! (yes we needed that fourth bike! It's great fun sliding it around the corners!! that rosso would be an awesome ride!!! Cheers Jasper
