UltraGlide wrote about 1 year ago Not an Escalade. Moto Guzzi Eldorado or maybe an Ambassador. Either late 60's or early 70's. Great bikes run forever. Made in Italy. |

I say Motto Guzzi. Don't know what year but yep; a Guzzi somewhere in the late 60's. ______________________ It is not something that can be inherited, nor can it be purchased. No amount of money can buy it. It is not for sale and it may not be borrowed. It isn’t a birthright and it doesn’t come easily. It must be earned. It requires honor, courage, and commitment. It’s the result of hardwork and even spilled blood. It is a sacrifice. It remembers those lives that went before. Once earned, it can never be taken away. You, and the brotherhood of the corps, maintain it forever. |

HogHaven wrote about 1 year ago Most probably a Moto guzzi ambassador, friend gave me one to rebuild for his wife. Belonged to her dad. Had it in shop for 3 years. Turned out nice. Go to Moto Guzzi website with VIN number & they can tell you everything you need to know. Moto Guzzi National Owners Club. MGNOC.com |

Blonde moment in saying Escalade! He had just gotten it and was hoping to get it in top shape for riding soon! I absolutely loved the front fender ornament! He was not sure what hood ornament it was but knew it was an "extra"...great bike tho! I'd love to see more of them...I am a sucker for the older bikes....My Dad had an Indian but my Mom made him sell it b4 I was born! Would love to have had a pic of that! |
