Whoa! I've been kind of cool on the Griso until I saw this (those upper frame rails are a little pretentious). But man does this ever work! What's the story on it?
Thanks for your reply and update. I was at the LOM in Half Moon Bay all weekend! Great event and my 3rd year in a row to attend.
There was another red Le Mans (1977 I think) for sale at the Bonham's auction also. I don't know if it sold.
Are you going to the Guzzi National by chance? If so, let me know, as I am leaving Monday June 23rd from Pleasanton.
There are more than a few "Guzzitisti" in the Bay Area and we need to orgazine a Breakfast Run or something in the near future. I agree - TOO HOT this weekend! Anyway, take care and keep in touch.
John - Nice looking Le Mans! At age 23, my very first Moto Guzzi was a red 1978 Le Mans in Austin, TX.
I bought it new after my 1977 Yamaha XS750 triple was stolen from my apartment complex. It was the first and only motorcycle I ever had stolen in >40 years!
I have fond memories of riding that in the Hill country and then, around Santa Cruz when I later moved to Mt. View, California.
