Re: Can Guzzi's and BMW's look cool?

Back in the late 60's I saw alot of guys turning BMW's into cool lookin chops. The biggest problem they had was fitting some kind of (had to have them) hiway pegs. If bobbers had been popular back then I think the 60's BMW would have fit right in.

Saw a roadtest in a magazine with Ed Winn (the actor - not sure I spelled his name correctly or even remember in correctly) running a 60's BMW out in the dessert and trying to get the heads to scrape the ground (which he couldn't do) and he had nothing but praise for the bike.

Don't really know much about Guzzi's. Everyone I knew that has owned one praises them.

Just noticed the cool-ass center stand on the BMW....I like it.

Got a guy on my route that has a Guzzi sitting in his shed I keep trying to talk him out of it, no luck yet......LOL. It's in pieces, all there, motor is loose, he ain't doin nothin with it, I'll haul it off and get it outta his way, I'm such a nice guy......LOL.
