Yeh I am not sure what to much noise is as there isn't another guzzi =
around here to listen too.
I have a 4 speed, the whinning isn't too loud thought it may be I =
haven't gotten it to road speed before.
As far as power goes it has a good bit but not as much as I was =
expecting, of course the last street bike I road was
Yamaha 1000 that had been set up for drag racing, pretty scary.

Hi all,
I finally got my 67 V700 registered yesterday, driving to the =
court house was the first long trip on the bike if you can call 10 miles =
round trip long.
Any way the bike seems to make a lot of lifter/rocker noise. How =
much is too much, I rechecked the valve lash today and it is at .1 mm in =
and .203 mm out
which is what the book calls for. The bike doesn't seem to have a =
whole lotta power either, although I was in traffic I did get up to 50 =
mph. Boy do you get a lotta looks riding a loop frame. I still have a =
ways to go to finish it but at least I am riding it, I want to do a =
longer trip tommorrow maybe if it isn't raining. One other thing I =
noticed is a slight whinning sound from the tranny is that normal, =
seemed louder at 45 or 50.

Thanks for all the advice from everyone,

Rick
67 V700 Fl
