SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION

  • The second-generation of Guzzi's popular V50 is regarded as the best of the model that brought the pleasure of relaxed, Italian-style, riding to the classic world
  • Renowned in period for being ahead of the game in terms of handling, appearance and reliability
  • Designed by the renowned Lino Tonti, the 490cc V50 featured two valves per cylinder with the combustion chamber inside the piston, in the heron-head style of Moto Morini's famous 350cc twin 
  • Offered as a project which could be returned to the road we believe, or the ideal basis for a full frame up restoration
  • We are advised that the engine is free but no attempt has been made of late to start or run the bike

  • Being offered with No Reserve
