hi guys-
well, we picked up the V-700 today, and it's better than expected. the odo
shows only 1500 miles! i believe it, because it has the origional-type
pirelli block-tread tires. the battery was still in it, and it has the 12
screw-off caps [ remember them?] it's complete, kinda crusty, and has a
funky light-bar bolted to [ahem] the front fender which carries driving
lights and turnsignals [yeah, i know]. there are red lense rear turnsignals,
with the wiring just kinda flopping in the breeze. gas smells like paint
thinner. slides are stuck.
i am putting the ambo engine back together for Steve, and prolly will
finish his bike before tackling this one. [can't wait!!!] need to get a
title, too. also, found a $250.00 ambo, and will be going after that one,
hopefully in the next week. never too many guzzi's! wheeeee!!
