Obviously the rails and linkages are Guzzi but the boards look like
aftermarkets designed like the really old HD boards found on 50's and
60's bikes. That half-moon shape. I've seen them in some HD catalogs
recently.
Makes you wonder if the mounting brackets on the boards themselves are
same spec between Guzzi and HD. Wouldn't be surprised at all. There are
several police options that were designed to fit both brands from the
days when Guzzi was trying to enter the police bike market here. If so,
it would certainly make finding affordable boards and spare parts much
easier than ebay. I'll wander out to the garage today with my stock
police Eldo boards and measure brackets against my Harley.

I saw these on ebay this morning...never seen them like this before. looks to me like they might be for an early V7/Ambo Police set up. But, it doesn't quite look like anything in my spare parts catalogs.
