BB TONTI REGISTRY and pic thread

Hi I am English, I came to Germany soon after retiring and now live here. I celebrated my 77th Birthday in April by buying a 2006 California Classic, 1100cc. This is not my first Guzzi, my first ever motorbike was a T3 which I bought around 1975, Reg no. MHT 40, this was followed by a SPII bought from Oxford Motorcycle Engineers, then a break to other makes until I bought a SPIII at Conway Motorcycles, which I sold shortly before coming to Germany. I did my first Rally with the Moto Guzzi club in Matlock, followed by various other trips including Shaftesbury. As well as riding, I enjoyed tinkering, tuning and adding accessories.
