Moto Guzzi V7 Special For Sale (1969) on Car And Classic UK [C707828].html

I'm not convinced that this is a V7 Special.I suspect that it's a V700.
Very nice though.

If you mean the black one with the California seat, shame whoever decided to apply the decals did it blindfolded and with one arm tied behind their back.

That's the one. It has delorto ISS or is it SSI remote float chamber carb's.I 'd like it but I've no room for it. Really nice bike. V7 Specials never did have those carb's. I'm sure it's a V700.

Yes, you're right about the carbs. My early 700 had the 'smooth' crankcases and Amals. Lovely bike, don't know why I sold it.
