1981 Moto Guzzi V50ii roadster
Custom 1981 Moto Guzzi V50ii roadster:
This bike was a completely stock, running Moto Guzzi V50ii in New York City a few years before we picked it up. The owner started a restoration project and took the bike apart but then lost interest and sold it in parts to a gentleman in Connecticut. He too lost interest and the bike traded hands a few times before we came across it and decided to take it on. Most of the parts were there, in boxes, but many were missing. We ended up sourcing parts from fas far away as Germany and ultimately got it back on the road. It has a NOS Benelli Mojave tank with custom machined Moto Guzzi emblems, a Motogadget mo.unit and all new wiring, Antigravity battery, Rick's regulator/rectifier, Motogadget speedo, LSL handlebars, headlight and headlight brackets and a custom seat. It's lightweight and nimble. It looks and sounds like a great Italian roadster, and drives like one too.
