Why don't we ask Moe to "donate" a Guzzi Girl to drive it house-to-house
around the country. Great advertising for him, and motivation for us!
What do you think?

where its been, wheather it be a signature, engraving, website, dent,
scrap, whatever.If a person has to add a part to fix it, he/she would
intial it. I think it would be cool to tear into a bike and see, say
your name on the flywheel, Daves on the third gear, Tom's on the second,

ect.ect. Have a cash stash under the tank in the frame for emergencies.
The person with the bike would have to keep in touch with the list of
course. Could a bike be titled to a website!?

I would be willing to do that!

 Good luck with the project Kevin. I would be willing to bet the list
could build a couple of "Loopframe List Loops" (tm) with takeoffs and
spares we all have laying around. Everyone chips in a part or two they
have
laying around, someone with waaaayyyy to much spare time and mechanical
ability assembles things and then we have at least one bike you could
swap
around the country with. Like Mike rides it to Dave's house, Dave rides
it
to Kevin's house and so on and so on. Hey! It was only a thought.

Guzzi. YES! I WILL ACOMPLISH THE IMPOSSIBLE!!!!
Tore 1 side down right away just to see what kind of experimenting
with
sleeves I would be in store for and LO & BEHOLD! There was chrome
still
clinging to the walls of the cylinder like it was hanging on for
dear
life, not to fall into the pitts of hell themselves!
WHOA! Lets not get too excited here kiddies, no, no, putting the
wagon
in front of the hourse, still have the other side to tear into.
