FS: 1981 Moto Guzzi V50 Monza

This is a very rare bike here in the U.S. Only 150 were ever imported. Small block, 500cc. Cold blooded, as are most bikes that are 20+ years old. An absolute incredible joy to ride. Lots of power in lower RPM's. I have not taken this bike over 6.5RPM myself. Pains me to sell, but I have bills that need paying, among other things. I'd keep her if I could afford to. I am the second owner.

Overall condition: Good/Excellent. No major faults, save for a small ding on the right side of the gas tank. Got hit by a horse tack trunk in my garage when I wasn't home.

Things it will need soon:
New brakes - I suggest EBC brake pads, the rotors on these bikes are getting dear.
New rear tire - I estimate about 2,000 miles left on it.
New rear right turn signal/housing - Light bulb blew and I haven't gotten around to replacing the bulb or the housing. Who uses turn signals anyway.

Things I have done since I bought her in April:
New battery
All fluids
Cleaned up electrical and other tidbits
Cleaned up grounds with wire brush

Located: Redmond, WA
Miles: 30,XXX
Title: Clear and in hand.
Price: $4,000 - A decent amount of wiggle room. Bills are bills and I have my price. That said, do not offer me lower than $3200, I will not respond.

I'd be happy to show you all the quirks this bike has, should you be interested. Test rides with cash in my hand and valid endorsement.

Bike is for sale locally on craigslist and PNWRiders.

Thanks.

Drop to $3500. Would like to sell sooner rather than later.

Last bump at 3500 OBO. If it's not gone by Sunday I'm keeping it until next summer rolls around. Or if you magically acquire funds in a couple weeks, send me a PM and we'll talk.
