1981 Moto Guzzi Monza (1981)
If you are looking at this Moto Guzzi V50 Monza, you may or may not know that very few of the Monza V50s were imported to the USA. This one came through the Port of New York through Ghost Motorcycles. There is a story behind that, in that it was reported to be just a front for the Mafia. The Monza, unlike the other V50s that were imported, was a European spec bike that had, as you can see, lower clip on bars, bikini faring, and the styling of the bigger LeMans' series motorcycles. The Monza had a higher final rear drive ratio, hotter cams, higher compression, and larger carbs, than the standard V50s. This is a great running Moto Guzzi. It has the optional Bub pipes and it sounds great!! It is absolutely the best sounding, torquey motorcycle that I have in my collection. I have rebuilt the carbs, installed an electronic ignition, rebuilt the brake system, including calipers and master cylinders. Baldwin Cycle Saddle restored the seat from pan up with new foam, optional gel pad, and very nice red stitching to match red paint. This was a $400.00 upgrade. The drive components, including a new U-joint in the drive shaft and spindles, were greased. Of course, all oils have been changed and changed regularly. The handle bar switch gear has been replaced. The original switch gear was junk. If you have original switch gear, it will plug directly into the original harness. The connectors are still in place. The gas tank on the left side does have a dent, see pictures. The paint on the plastic parts on these bikes didn't stick well right from the start.2016-07-04 04:56:05Salem, West Virginia, United States142900
