Guzzi Racers

Apart from the Cafe Racer scene that seems to be spreading the word about modifying bikes at the moment and seems to have huge momentum around the world, the Classic racer scene is also growing and some really lovely examples of Guzzi Racers have emerged over the past few years that are worthy of a look.
My friend Andy Gray races a highly modded Mk3 Le mans and sent me the some pics of its latest incarnation complete with bottom frame removed.
But also a few other pics of Guzzi Racers gleaned from the interweb that caught my eye recently and so I though it would be a good idea to put them in one place.

Well its April 2012 and today has just seen the 20,000th visitor to the GuzziCafe blog site, thanks to everyone that's taken the time to have a look and the kind comments, hope the blog has been useful to other cafe builders and as so many new bikes keep appearing on the web these days, there is no doubt that the Cafe scene is alive and well.
The bike has now covered over 1200 fault free miles and has been great fun to ride.
heres a few of the other Cafe Guzzis that have appeared recently on the web.

 

 Just a few shots of the Guzzi at the recent Motorcycle Live at the NEC where it was one of the Twelve finalists of the Carole Nash BGBT competition.
An old mate,  Gary,  transported the bike to and from the show, for me and deserves credit for delivering the bike safely. If you ever need Suzuki spares or a great mechanic, or just a bike moving, Gary is here (gary@ghurd.orangehome.co.uk)
The standard of the other bikes was breathtaking and I felt quite humble to be in the 12 finalists for this year and have 5 mins of fame ;)

The bike was never built to win awards or be shown, it was built to ride and enjoy, which I will now do................a lot   !
