Got around to removing the nameplate on my Ambo frame today in
preparation for powder coating. I hadn't paid any attention to it
before, but the tag gives the date of manufacture as July 1969. Does
this technically make my bike a '69 or is it as the title says, a '70?
Did/does Guzzi switch model years mid stream like the American car
companies or does the calendar date prevail when determining model year?
