    Guzzi 500

    Anyone know any of the history on this?

    DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.

    Cheap as chips, just buy it, fix it up and have it ready for me to race by BSTT

    Can I hold the umbrella and keep the pies warm too?

    Seller has no idea about what it was doing lap wise other than it ran at Taupo and HD. 20 mins of looking at Mark Time have shown nothing.

    Buy my MZ and I'll have it waiting for you at the BS.

    I've raced one before, I don't think I'll be doing that ever again

    V50 are a good fun bike, not particulary fast although my mates bike used to beat my R75/7 and another R90S easily through the Hundalees (not that we'd be racing on a public road )

    Oh common - just because it is a race bike does not mean your arse cannot have a degree of comfort!
