well the bike shop who listed the engine packed it in a cardboard box and it got beat to hell in shipping. I called them yesterday and they are going to file a claim with useless ps, who will say it is not their problem, since it was not packed properly. the valve cover & oil pan was busted, the tach drive was smashed along with the fluid filled oil gauge. All the transmission studs were bent and broken off. I am going to try and see if the credit card company will stop payment, but I think it is to late. They stated on ebay as they were experienced in shipping. What a bunch of idiots. It does have a nice set of duel plug lemans 1 heads, which somehow did not get damaged

Hey all, I've tripped over three pieces of information in the last month that
you
may all be familiar with, but here they are anyway;
1) Ambo used as backdrop in some GQ ad 2) Ambo featured in Rider magazine Motorcycle Collector department as the "Original Breva" 3) MGNOC news reports opening of Aprilia/Moto Guzzi Flagship
Destination
