The bike looks dirty. It takes up valuable garage space. And your wife probably doesn't want you to have a bike. So save you all that misery and heart ache. Sell it to me. :')))))

I was my father-in-law or anyone would give me a Guzzi in that shape.

 I've been told by about 20 people that I need to get myself on this list.

Here's the short version of the story. I've got a V7. It was sitting
in a shed.

It belongs to my father in law. He told me, "it's yours if you want
it!" I wanted it. It's mine.

It's now in my garage and off the trailer it's been on for over 10
years. I've knocked the top layer of dust off it (photos from today:

and I'm anxious to get started on something meaningful.

I'm trying to prepare myself to crack her open and check the cylnder
walls this week. It'll probably be the most major thing I've done
mechanically. I've got manuals and patience. Wish me luck.
