MOTO GUZZI V-8 LAPS ISLE OF MAN 1996 . . . . I POSTED SOME GUFF ON THIS MOTORCYCLING MARVEL A MONTH AGO, NOW SOME MOVING PICTURES WITH SOUND . . . . AND A SHITLOAD OF OTHER GUZZI'S AT THEIR 75TH ANNIVERSARY BASH . . . . FOR ALL THE GUZZI GEEKS OUT THERE !!!!

500cc, QUAD CAM, 180 mph, LOTS OF EENIE WEENIE BITS GOING UP AND DOWN AND ROUND AND ROUND . . . . AND THIS WAS IN 1957 !!!! IT WAS NEVER A WORLD BEATER BUT JUST GETTING IT OUT THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT ACHIEVMENT THAT'S NEVER BEEN BETTERED . . . .

Some great up close shots of the motor, an interview with Bill Lomas, the legend pedaller who rode it in the Junior TT of '57, an entire onboard camera lap of the beast in action with Lomas as pilot and also featuring a majority of the entire range of classic Guzzi race bikes throughout their history . . . . hope you enjoy it.
