Buell vs Guzzi
Interesting choice, Tony, Eric Buell was always a bit “left field” …..rim style single front disc, under slung rear suspension , belt drive…etc etc….but his use of pushrod H-D motors was probably a deal breaker for a few potential customers. It would be interesting to know how much the motor weighed….especially in comparison to your ‘Guzzi lump……

Just seen the updates on this thread.
As has been said already this should be a great project. I'm afraid I'm at the other (bottom) end of the skill set as far as my bikes are concerned . I sometimes struggle to get by with basic maintenance and servicing - particularly where my Monster is concerned. Interesting to hear that the Quatt bikers' cafe is closing . I used to go occasionally but more often would go to the bike nights at the Wheel at Worfield or the Country Club just up the road on the A454. It's been a good few years since I last went . I prefer a quieter life these days! Used to go to the Waterman at Hatton near Warwick as well - late 90's early nounties. Good luck with the new project which I'll be following with great interest - like your others. |

Really looking forward to this, I thoroughly enjoy all your builds, I was considering a Buell years ago until a mate rode one and told me the gearbox was beyond agricultural, a compromise too far for me, I'm very interested to find out your thoughts.
