Can't help thinking that some of the comments were right on the money.
Turn the engine 90 degrees for better cooling, add shaft drive, and fit guzzi hubs and suspension.
Voila = instant classic ?

That dradster thing is a combo of the ugliest stuff they could find. If that's the idea it worked!!! As for the Guzzi motored cafe bike all I can say is at least it's not just another portly done Triton. But that back cylinder might not be happy.
