Well, I hate to do it, but I need to part with my 70 ambo civilian. I =
want to offer it up on the list before I put an ad in the paer here =
and/or put it on ebay. I have a couple pictures here =
http://home.austin.rr.com/doniel/images/and will take more if there is =
an interest from anyone on the list. I've had it since the summer, but =
will need a car for my job and the only way I canafford a downpayment is =
to sell the guzzi. It has 17,600 miles on it. The previous owner, who =
was the second owner, took it up to harpers about two years ago and them =
replace/fix anything that needed it, including a new wiring harness, new =
clutch, new battery. I have the receipts from all, so I can give more =
details. It is very clean, no leaks, no problems that I am aware of. I =
have a solo seat that I just got from mark at MG cycle. It is like the =
harpers repro police, but I had it made without the webbing across the =
top. The dual seat is stock. One of the petcocks is clogged and the =
other leaks a little, but I can get it in a position where it doesn't =
leak. I have been wanting to clean/fix as you all may know from =
myposting, but haven't had time. Semms to run good as far as I can tell. =
I haven't had any problems, other than my own inexperience with =
motorcycles. I wired up a different headlight switch because the =
original broke. I also wanted to add turn signals and the switch I put =
on accomodates them. Never had time to put the signals on, but I have =
two new front signals from Cyclegarden with brackets, two lucas rear =
signals that I just got on ebay from David Lackey and a license plate =
bracket for the sigs. A picture of the switch is on the website also. =
The starter button is a couple months old also. Has side stand and =
center stand. I will also include a cover. No mechanical problems that I =
am aware of, though I think it needs to be tuned and have the carbs =
adjusted/synched by someone who can do it. Chrome is mostly in good =
shape. No rust, except a little on some bolts. I also have two silver =
clamp-on mirror perches that will accept most japanese bike mirrors on =
the way. I guess I won't ever get to use them myself. There is a whole =
in the end of the right side grip where the previous owner had a bar end =
mirror installed, but it was really cheap so i took it off.=20
If anyone is interested, I am asking $3400 for the whole package. If =
you're not interested in the solo seat, I will knock off $200. All costs =
associated with shipping are up to you. Or, of course, you can come get =
it andride it home! Let me know if you are interested and I will get you =
more pics/info.
I hate to sell it. But, someday when I get my student loans paid off (or =
at least down) and I can afford it, I will find another Guzzi. I love =
'em.=20
