    Moto Guzzi 750 "Freccia tricolore"

    I have not given up on that idea, thanks for the support. I dont have an english wheel, so I will have to Slap some metal into shape with a hammer. We will see how that goes.... The front wheel could be a little smaller I agree, I ordered the same dimesions as another build. They had tested it...

    Thanks, guys! Almost finished now, soon i will order licenseplates and start testing it. The bike is a homage to the Fiat G91 of the Italian aerobatic team Frecce Tricolori.

    I finally got the seatpad cut to size and made up some brackets for the Lafranconi’s. The seat is made from 40mm closed cell foam, almost looks like alcantara.

    Moto Guzzi 750 "Freccia tricolore"

    Yes, clear as day. The bike is quite small and i am quite tall, so the angle is no problem. I did not want it to stick up too much above the triple tree to keep the profile of the bike low and sleek.

    M unit blue hooked up and working great! Cool with keyless go and alarm system. Next up is the ignition system, going to use original digiplex for now. Unfortunately I had to strip the paint on the tank and start over as the paint cracked...:eek: More soon:)

    Mak's step-by-step guide to building an un-original, but still fun, cafe bike

    For me it was a much faster way to get the tire on/off, as it was done in one operation instead of two. Also nice to have full control on the tube.

    Ha ha! that is a buzzkill! Have you tried the zip-tie trick, makes it a whole lot easier both getting a tire off and on.

    Some progress. I got my revcounter/speedometer, made a deep bracket for it to mount it in a low position. Also made a little front fender and the seat is almost ready. Tested the rear light and it works great.

    I have had 3 Monsters and I never missed a centre stand, but I see your point. For my use it will be ok with just the side stand, and I don’t mind loosing that extra weight.

    I am going to remove the center stand, but keep the kick stand. The height of the bike will not be much lower than original, but instead of low rear and high front it will be low front and high rear.
