I love my Guzzi because I am able to rebuild everything , right down to the horns .
Ive just found that some goon PO used a pressure washer and , had loaded one of the two horns with Truckwash detergent. From end to end on my bike there is minor corrosion , as a result of washing detergent having been used with a darned ( Kiwi word for f..k.ng ) pressure washer. The PO that did it should have it jammed in his ear .
The corrosion , although not bad , is enough to stuff up the alloy spade connectors at various places around the bike , causing repeated electrical problems , which one by one I'm eliminating.
Like any romance , to keep it "hot" you've gotta work at it, thats why I just Love my Guzzi.

I have a list of things I wish Id never sold , all are either guns , bikes or cars,
I have another list of things I wish Id never bought , all are either guns ,bikes or cars
I have yet another list of things I wish Id bought but didnt , all are either guns ,bikes or cars .
One thing I have learnt from all this is that I havn't learnt a "darned " thing :D

An old wise man was once asked why he never married. He answered;
"I'd rather go through life wanting something I didn't have, than having something I didn't want"
I believe he was a prolific owner of guns, cars and bikes. :D
