 I am getting used to them thar modern bikes with that fuel injection
stuff that ain't got no petcocks.

I have a '73 Laverda SF1 with exactly the same petcocks as the Guzzi, except that they work in the opposite direction (as does the brake and shift pattern). If I leave the petcock open, enough gas will seep into the cylinder to lock up the engine when I go to start it. Really had me scratching my head on that one...

 Thanks again for the decals and the inspiration to do the pinstriping!

It makes it worthwhile when I see the final results. Good job!

Nice job on the Ambo. They sure look great when you get them
painted
up and shiny. You left your gas on...
