Do it if you must . Whatever you do ,NEVER crank it long enough to over
heat the starter. It has permanent magnets that can (will) become
weakend by overheating. You also wind up with an awkward cable angle
that is not as ticy as the original. If you can find a nice used Bosch
or better yet a good rebuilt it should last a good long time and cost a
whole lot less.

I put a starter from a 86 Cali 2 in my 74 Eldo. The cali 2 starter has
the
 solenoid on top vs. the Eldo starter with it on the bottom. All I had
to
do was notch a small piece out of the battery tray and change the Trans
breather to the early style with the hole in the head of the plug. As
far
as the Valeo starter goes, I just checked a guzzi catalog that says they
can be used on the V700, Ambo, & Eldo with minor mods.
