Kevin,
I am curious, with all the good motorcycles available in the US, why did you
buy a Moto Guzzi 'Desmo'?

No one cares about Moto Guzzis or whether the person you are
questioning
had one, rode one, crashed one, or urinated in the fuel tank of one.
It's not a brand of bike I would even consider, if I were
considering
buying a motorcycle. It's a has-been line.



Harry, it was your buddy doing the bragging about owning a Moto
Guzzi. Why now
are you trashing his taste in motorcycles?

First, idiot, I didn't BRAG about owning a Guzzi. Simply stated I owned
one once. And it WAS a piece of crap.

Yeah, I hear the "Desmo" version left a lot to be desired. Be careful,
if it was
a real 'Desmo', then it was a Ducati. Harry thinks Duc's rule. Don't be
stepping
on his toes about your piece of crap Ducati!

Sorry, John, but you are apparently out of your league here, if you
don't think that Moto Guzzi made a Desmo, before Ducati. WAY out,
apparently.


Well, what year was your Moto Guzzi 'Desmo'? I'd love to learn more about
it!

It was very used and cheap.

Mine was a '71. Do a simple google search, I found quite a few hits,
most in Italian.


Show me a Moto Guzzi Desmo model.

In 1971, Guzzi made the following models:

Stornello
Dingo
Trotter
Falcone
V7 700 and 750 Special

Whoops, no 'Desmo' listed for 1971. Now I wonder what you *really* had? It had
to be quite rare. Maybe you could give me the frame number. Then I could tell
you exactly what you *think* you may have had.

Odd in the other thread, you stated, that it was owned by a "friend of
a friend" and was a model that was never made
