Moto Guzzi LeMans Rosso Corsa description

Moto Guzzi 850 Lemans MK2 (Mk1 Conversion).
The LeMans was designed to be Guzzi’s sporting standard bearer in the late 1970’s big bore bike wars. The famous Tonti frame was so effective, Guzzi used it well into the modern era: it allowed the motor to be set very low for good handling and aggressive looks, and detachable lower frame rails made major maintenance relatively straightforward for such a compact machine.
Mechanically the bike is sound. Battery is fresh, engine starts easily and runs well.
Cosmetically, the bike is clean as shown in the photos. There is no “road rash” on the motorcyle, The pipes are unscratched , There is no rust on pipes or on the bike. All rubber components are intact and there is no rubber rot.
Tires are fresh, no cracking, I believe they are near-new.In short, this is a clean, never-abused, and tastefully modified , rare MK2 . These motorcycles have a reputation for incredible power and awesome sound .

The main items are that the new 853cc air-cooled 90-degree two-valver – the “eight and a half” – delivers maximum power of 80 horses and 80 Nm at 5,000 rpm, with 90% of said torque available at 3,750 rpm.

A pair of muscular-looking V-Twin cruisers sit on a dais in front of a dramatically lit backdrop as attractive female brand representatives greet guests, answer questions and pose for pictures. This scene is fairly commonplace at convention centers during the motorcycle show season, but Moto Guzzi is taking the scenario to a new location: airports. Moto Guzzi is bringing the motorcycle show experience to select airports in Europe to promote its new California 1400 models.
