I am a closet Guzzi lover- will own one eventually, so I really like the bike.  I don't care for billet or flash, so this is right up my alley, sort of plain and restrained.  I would like to see a better pic or two of the front end- headlight/controls/guages.  Looks like an interesting set up.  As for nits, the tank/seat combo makes it look a little like a plain old GS550 at first glance. I'd go with a small upholstered hump back seat.  Otherwise I like how clean it is and there are a lot of techinical upgrades invisible to the average on looker.

I don't understand one thing? You have it street ready with the turn signals (which i find the placement very cool and unobtrusive), but you went with out a headlight? If that is a styling cue it's lost on me. Do you only plan on riding it during the day if so you are missing out on alot of good riding time. Plus who wouldn't want to show that thing off at the local pub. Red/white/black color scheme is well done it works time and time again. I love a white bike so you got me there. The red fork lowers look sweet. Looks like it could stop on a dime. I find the overall bike pleasing. I would add a headlight and ditch the wierd mirror for a lower profile rectangular ones on both sides. The minimalist look doesnt work if you still have a big ole mirror on one side may as well be safer and have em on both since bar ends are out of the question.

hi there, there is a headlamp - just search for it ;D..but the light setup is just an idea....not very successful as we had to admit, but interesting looking we think, we test several other headlamps combinations at the moment...what would u like there instead?
And the mirror... yes i hate it too. But we try at the moment to get the bike fully streetlegal here in germany...so its just a compromise solution ..

that light placement, while clever, looks like it will just illuminate the back of the front fender. I think it would look better with a round headlight but i see you are going for a dirt track look so what you've got may suit the overall scheme better.

Nice, I'd ride it.  Take a page from Husky and drill the front plate and insert L.E.D.s in it and create the headlight that way.

There are not that many doing Guzzi builds, anything "different" is good in my book. As a Tracker it looks great, yet there are a mix/mash of designs with it, dirt body work, street pipes and signals. To me it needs "high" pipes and the signals need to be tight and close.
Tell me, what tank is that...it's not Guzzi...I'm looking for alternate ideas for my G5. Guzzi tanks are all huge and, with the exception of the Le Mann, ugly.

I'm with axeugene, high pipes and a better number shield/headlight.  Could even use a modern enduro plate with the small headlight set in.  With that tank it has to be at least somewhat round.

the new front and headlight assembly is in work yet....high pipes would be nice but difficult to get street legal and looking nice at the same time..but we think about that too
