Hello Loopers

I am having this gentleman pick me up a set for the Eldo,if anyone else is
interested I may be able to have him pick up an extra set or two. He is a
Guzzi rider also, I understand he rides a Falcon. He is on a camera list that
I am on and have 'known' him for about a year,
Or maybe better yet I'll get one set and see how it works out. Sort of
taking a gamble, but I feel good about this guy.
I know that I can get hardware store lock sets for less than a third
of what these will cost but I'd pay more just to have it look like it
belongs. I'm not restoring this bike but its not going to be a Rat bike
either.
One other word of advice [learned the hard way] don't drill out your
locks if the keys get missing on your tool boxes. Pull the hinge pin out,
then you can remove the lock. Then if you live in a town like Spokane that
doesn't have blanks, I went to every locksmith in town and they all said
"you'll never find a blank to fit these locks."
Called Marks shop and was told yes they could get keys made for these
locks, But that was after DUMB A-S drilled them out. And So It Is.
Cheers

Hello Ron
I'm looking for the lock sets, I went to the Guzzi official dealer in Rome=20

He told me that the lock sets are now out of production, but they can be=20
replaced with the lock sets of "Nuovo Falcone" but they're expensive=20
45.000=A3 (about 22$ each one).
Don't worry I'll search in other sides. I would be happy if you'll send me=20
some of your photos.

Now for the reason for the this note, you said 'if I needed Guzzi

Also have some Guzzi photos that I took this summer in California at

So if you are interested I'll send you a couple.
Caio,
