Re: Guzzi

I have always liked the Guzzi Le Mans, the electrics were always the problem, as with most Italian bikes .
I like the new G7 as well it looks retro enough.

Re: Guzzi

I have had three different Le Mans III and one Daytona 4V
that last one was bought and imported from the UK

My brother had a genuine V7 Sport, and one Le Mans III.

(We vere known as the "Guzzi brothers" in our hometown at the time)

Neither of us had any problems what so ever with the electrical systems.

Re: Guzzi

The one I borrowed had a fault develop with the alternator.
I think the seal broke and the contacts rusted.
