Hi, I p/xed my daily commute for this, after wfh & then redundancy, lots of things need sorting - but it is a runner & very noisy too!

Nice, always liked those.  A lot more authentic than some of the horror "custom scramblers" people make out of worn out hacks.  No brown plank for a seat either!

Lovely bike Chris, i have a 72 CL175 K6 which keeps my 67 V700 company in the garage, ideal to jump on to head for the shops or other errands and a darn sight lighter than the Guzzi,  really struggle with weight of the Guzz but cant bare to part with her, stupidity i guess but then none of us are perfect.

Regards Chris

Thanks for the kind words, if I was to sell this bike I'd let you know.
In the meantime it'll keep me entertained, but will delay my V50 project!
All the best from the West Country.

Chris,
As others have said - that looks very nice..
If you are in Clevedon I am not far away - Long Ashton !!

Good luck with the V50, my V35II continues to play up, it just seems to like staying in the garage...

Cheers,
Adrian

Hi
In answer to "how does it ride", it's light & very manoeuvrable with the high & wide bars, revs easily, makes a fabulous noise & vibrates a fair bit! Makes you think you're going a lot faster than you really are! The electrics are primitive & it's the only Honda I ever had with only a kickstart to fire it up. Starts easily though.
I have a friend in Wales who also has a V35 mk2, he has spent ages & lots of money restoring & it gives him a lot of grief. That doesn't bode well for my V50 mk2.
