Never have come to terms
with what's enough 'cause
in a few short years some-
one else inherits them any-
way. But once had a psuedo
DBD34 Goldie made up from a
B33 and early sand cast head
and barrel. Someone got wind
of it and persistently came
around until weakened with the
sight of his cash. Never forget
his riding away grinning like
a hyena. Felt like Judas and
the forty pieces of silver
which I flung on the ground
in instant remorse! Moral:
be sure you really need the
cash instead of your baby

No one will inherit the contents of my garage including parts, tools etc and any car standing outside. ... Arrangements are in place with trusted friends for their safe conversion to cash that will go to my widow

Hi Alan - That you are a multi-talanted, multi-tasking, literary genious extrodinaire goes without question, but I hadn't had you down as a MIND READER! The Guzzi V7 keeps on calling and I'd planned to visit Shipley sometime over the holidays to have look at the very bike you highlighted! I love the concept of the V7 - not too heavy, nice looking (IMHO), decent power output of around 50bhp, and of course that gorgeous V Twin motor. Come to Daddy!!!

Ah thats where yr wrong Paul Black betty(grunda) is still in daily use for commuting. The V7 tho is a beautiful ride especially when youve got 7/800 miles on it and changed the tyres to bt 45s cruise all day at 85 with a reserve of about another 25 or 30 if you need it.Riggers if I could offer a little advice suggest you take a trip to the Rocket centre at Blackburn in preference to shipley I bought my bike there and the only problems Ive had were down to the dealer as corroberated by Agostinis in Mandello del Lario. 60 miles per gallon on english fuel but on the continent in the warm weather easily topped 70 mpg with full luggage cruising at speeds a bullet could only dream about.
