 Hi Dave,

I believe Guzziology defines loopframes as any model with a generator.
That
 means the models are V700, Ambo, Eldo. I think the T series used a Tonto
Frame.
While I think you have the right bikes, the name comes from the frame
which is a continuous loop. Starting with the V7 sport in 1972 The Tonti
(sp?) frames had two removable members in the lower frame tubes and so were
not a loop. After the T modles all bikes had the Tonti fames.
