I have been a biker for most of my life (have owned two Moto Guzzi le Mans in the distant past) and just wanted to say that I identify with your outlook (as a newly-qualified 74-year-old). Only problem is that I would feel very guilty to my two talented hip replacement surgeons if I fell off and messed up their craftmanship!

AN AMAZING BIKE , The attention to detail taken is a credit to you . A long time a go a chap I knew ,said he use to Jenolite all metal cycle parts a good coat of red oxide and 3 coats of Valspar enamel paint or Humbrol and then polish it with Braso metal polish and wax polish . When it must been 30 years later I saw him at a small classic show with 2 of his bikes and I asked and how many times have to painted those , he replied never . Keep in up and enjoy your ride .

The fact that I love Guzzi and cafe racers don't matter . It's the passion the dream realized the attention to detail and the sound advice given to anyone thinking of starting a project themselves .

My favourite big bore Italian Bike. Job well done. I met a fella at the 1975 Daytona 200 who had a stock 1974 LeMans and I was fortunate to take it for a good run ; was quite a thrill for a 20 year old. Even Honda was inspired to built a similar design in 1978 called the CX 500 which they eventually turbocharged.

I've started doing a similar thing with my 1980 Benelli 900 Sei, I installed a bank of six 22mm Dellorto carbs and a modified six into six Silentium exhaust, Tomaselli clip on bars and Tomaselli q/a throttle. I fitted a Telefix fork brace and modified a pair of Tarozzi rearsets to fit the Benelli that were made for a Guzzi Le Mans Mk II.

hi, thanks, still undecided about the wheel colour ?? the gold wheels and red tank are a throw back to my first mk1 le mans that was that colour, so its a bit of nostalgia for me , to make this bike like my old mk1 from years back. but i think the black wheels do look good to (ive still got them, they are a spare set !)

@aukanmeister 3 жыл бұрын
@@caferacer850 The gold wheels makes the wheels contrast instead of blending in. That does a lot to the perception of the proportions of the bike. With the black wheels, it was just a lot of blackness, and the tank (and that beautiful shiny tail) Anyway, that's just my opinion. I enjoyed the video, and the detail of which this is built to!

I used to wring its neck at times, which is one of the reasons I decided to make major changes and sell it, I'm 74 now, seeing and hearing this tasty Guzzi has been a pleasure.

@@caferacer850 Well, I didn’t take steps to have it high grade photographed (I do these days with anything that I create of a large format). And although I have a photo of my own of it I’m not sure if I have a spare one. But the actual original oil on canvas resides in the home of one of my long standing friends in Lincoln City, where I live. It may be a bit of a search task to find the negative or slide that I first took. Never mind because my friend will easily allow me to take a photo of it anyway if need be. And being as my phone is an iPhone the picture image should probably be better than my camera was all those years ago. Also it will be simple to send it direct to you. Quite apart from that, it may well be that I have an image of it somewhere on an old computer hard drive, it just means plugging the docking station in and searching through the hard drives. So one way or another I’m sure that I can pass an image of it to you. In the meantime I want to send a picture of something else I painted. Through my paintings it came to pass that I had to spend time at the Haslam’s place of residence, I painted several pictures of Ronny and one of Leon as a schoolboy racer. But the image I want to send you is a little unique in respect of that I faked the name of the bike on the tank. However I cannot find any method of sending it on my phone keyboard on this site. Are you on ‘Facebook’? I can send it by messenger on there or maybe even by the simple mobile phone ‘text’ system, in which case I’d need to know your mobile phone number.

Beautiful example, super clean build, wish I saw this before I did mine. Converted a G5 into full cafe, suspended motor, you'll need the 1100 sport front cover, still available. 07' GSXR USD front set up, not too difficult to make work, some machining involved on the stem and a spacer, only problem with that setup is a front fender, stock fender is for a 16" front, braking is out of this world now. You can run 1100 sport down tubes and aftermarket under gearbox X pipe. Suggest a EME charging system, helps clean up the charging clutter. Be wary of the Tab classics LeMans tank, they require a hell of a lot of playing with to get to seat right, think I used KTM tank bungs that was the answer, stock MG tank rubber bungs are too small. And they attach with a bungie cord at the back, yeah a bungie cord. Used aircraft cable and couplers and a clear fuel line to line the cable. Mike Rich heads, 1100 sport cam 36mm carbs, Dyna coils. Super fun canyon carver.

Loved my Guzzi's, a 850T and a Le Mans 850 111 which had genuine Ago rear sets and a full fairing.

That’s a great bike. I think we are about the same age so the Guzzi Le Mans and Laverda Jota and Mirage were the grail Italian bikes when we were young. The round barrel Guzzi engine has a presence, beauty and sound that is unique, nice job mate.
