    From track to road, Ardie & Elsie

    Well the time has come to wrap up the post classic racing hobbie we have had for the past 4 yrs and dress the bikes up for the road and to sell.
    I reckon the old shitters scrubed up rater well, Elsie in standard trim and black a RD 250LC and Ardie in a retro style and blue a worked RD 350LC.

    82 onwards says every site I have ever looked at (not just this one)

    Good stuff D,

    So what now? I guess you will be able to come to the Guzzi rally for a start eh? No more Greymouth races clashing on labour weekend

    I forsee a classic Guzzi in your future... Here is one I built earlier, now for sale just for you:

    Classic looks, modern power and reliability, perfect for the 'family man'

    Oh, like a Falcone 500?
    Bit thin on the ground in NZ, actually I don't think I have ever seen one for sale other than a military one that sold for 10K 2 years ago. Ebay Italy for them ones. I rode a '72 which was the last of them, pretty gutless but light with a low COG.
    Good luck with the sale of your other classics

    BTW- my mate got that Rosso, $9600! Frickin' bargin!
