I bought a pair of them when I rebuilt my ambassador in 1984. The chrome was already peeling off. I paid the dealer $45 each!!!
So I wrapped them up in wax paper and put the up with all the other precious Guzzi stuff I own. I used the beat up old ones and some day I will have them chromed for lots less then the new nuts cost.

Occasionally, like now, I see chrome swing arm nuts for sale on Ebay (kinda expensive too). Sure look nice but how does one get those babies on the bike without knocking chrome off them in the process. Seems like the
socket
or box-end would ineviably scrape off some chrome. Bob
