R65 Rob and all, the pictures of the bikes.

Post by Tom H Ca »

I hope this is OK to post here.

These are not the best shots of them...but...here goes:

The '73 R75/5 SWB. My newest bike. On the list to be restored.

The '72 Guzzi 850. 30 years together, been on the road all but about 1 while rebuilding the engine. Also on the list to be restored.

And the '70 Guzzi 750. About 25 years together. After a number of years stored, I finally painted all but the tank and Wixom bags. Some things have to be original. The Wixom's are the original gel coat with some pin strips added. The side covers and tool box still need their logo's and stripes, one day....

To all of the long time members here... thanks for all the past help to get the R75 working.
Been a pretty reliable bike. But still needs some work here and there. Rear main seal and pump O ring is the biggest thing to do. Then the read drive to swing arm seal, then.....

Thanks to all again,
Tom

Nice bikes (and pictures!), Tom.
I'm a bit embarrassed that you chose to include me in your subject title. We aren't that strict around here, but we do have a thread going on pictures of our members' bikes. (In the "Pictures" forum.) I have the ability to merge your post into that thread, if you would like. Or not. No biggie.
For the most part, the Admins & Moderators are here to kill spammers, dead!
Steveb990 (sometimes appearing as Steve in Golden) is our other Admin, besides Matt, the owner of the site; but Steve had his name made black, by special request, so he wouldn't be too conspicuous. So, I'm really no one special.

So, from your handle, I think you are in California?

And I thought all '73 R75s' were LWB models?
1973 R1000/5 LWB
1976 R90S Silver Smoke
