Moto Guzzi 1100 Sport(i) description

Excellent condition, owned by Moto Guzzi enthusiast.  Guzzisti's know this one is fuel-injected, with Marchesini wheels, Brembo brakes, and uprated WP (Belgian) suspension.  I believe I'm the third owner, having owned it for three years, during which time I've thoroughly enjoyed sorting it out, to be the bike that Mandello del Lario intended it to be.  One of Guzzi's first forays into fuel injection, the Sport(i) was known to have glitchy fueling.  So, I proceeded to have the bike dyno-tuned by one of the country's best-known tuners of Italian bikes, who created a custom chip specifically for this bike.  I replaced the OEM cam chain tensioner with a Stucchi piece, to eliminate the chain slack that often fools the bike's ECU.   My servicing has included all oils and filters, refreshed fuel injectors, replacement of all rubber lines, replaced wheel bearings, a new Odyssey battery (the best), and Michelin Road Pilots.  Moto Guzzi factory shop manual included.  All original except for Heli-bars (original clip-on's included) and carbon fiber rear hugger.  Surely one of the best-performing 1100 Sporti's available anywhere at any price, and surely destined to increase in value and collectability.  It's been a great bike though, as a 60+ year old rider, there are several bikes remaining on my bucket list before I hang up my helmet.  Will sell within the US only.

Moto Guzzi Revives V7 in US

Mon, 05 Jan 2009

If contemporary society has taught us anything, it is that few things are held as sacred. Shameless film and television remakes are rampant while musicians sample (steal) any beats or mixes they deem suitable that will gain their crumby creation attention. In regards to motorcycles, there are times when retro-inspired modern engineered creations work, like the Triumph Thruxton for instance.
