❤❤❤❤ you will be missed. Great guy.

It was a pleasure knowing you Andy, with plenty of discussions we had whilst being MOT Quality controlled at Avia, RIP mate.

I've had 3 Californias, they don't look like what I usually prefer but they cover distance like nothing else. Sound so well, call it my Harley that handles.

Great video, these Norges are best kept secret 😎

Thanks for being kind and taking the time to watch one of my videos. I wish you nothing but the best no matter where you are.

Very sorry to hear about Andy ,God bless him , if this helps anyone it's worth mentioning please be aware of the potential dangers of using the antibiotic prescription drug Nitrofurantoin as this can have a serious side effect of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis on the patient.

❤ Eu não conhecia seu trabalho até hoje, quando recebi a sugestão de assistir. Felizmente, tive a sorte, ou fui agraciado pelo destino, em poder ouvir suas palavras de coragem e grata realização. Tenha certeza de que o futuro reserva a você, eternas experiências com tudo o que lhe dá prazer, e continuará nos divertir e orientar para sempre! Que Deus esteja com você. Obrigado!

My first 3 1/2 Sport back in the eighties had the standard drop bars and no vibration felt through the grips. I changed the top yoke and fitted Strada bars, the same as the ones you have on this bike, and vibration was felt straight away. It's just the length of your bars accentuating the inherent imbalance of a 60 degree (?) twin configuration. Input on foam grips which helped. Watching this in Sep 2024, sending best wishes in your health battle.

Just remember, everything you helped people with on the channel, that stuff lives forever. Be happy with the evidence of how we all enjoyed sharing what you COULD do, and be satisfied with that legacy, regardless. Sooner or later, the path we all tread leads to the exit door. You've done better than most. And it was beautiful. Shine on, Old Guy.

As an Italian we say Norjay😎😉 Great review of a great bike, thanks❤

God bless you.

Also a Guzzi owner and only recently discovered your channel. So sorry to hear this will be the last. Very best wishes to you.

Valve clearances can have a huge effect on these engines ,if they are too tight to start from as it heats up they can close up but still give an indication of compression when kicked over , when the engine cools down the clearance opens up enough to run for a while until heated up again , carbs on these also can be very prone to blocking in the galleries that supply the emulsion tube .

Please look into the benefits of ivermectin to treat IPF .

Coco-vidd is the biggest crime in human history! It was forced on people by coercion and even violence by politicians!. The "illuminati" and WHO and WEF are behind it and they want us on our kneese!. And YOU (Poor Old Lad) won,t get into politics!...WOW!!!!...Best to you old chap!

Hi, I am thinking about buying a Norge 2012 model, I live in Florida and I am wondering how this bike handles hot climates and traffic since it's air cooled. Another concern is reliability. Can you please help me with these concerns? Thanks in advance. Cheers

First time on your channel, respect mate

God bless.... fair winds.....

Class act. 🍻

Lovely, sounds like steam on tickover.

Sorry to see you go it was great to watch be well

God bless.

Sorry,buddy

I wish you well my friend and thank you for everything you have achieved rgds Paul.

Thx for all the shows Andy. From a fellow Guzzi enthusiast, who thoroughly enjoyed listening in to your philosophical bike rants. All the best.

What a dignified bowing out. You couldn't have done it better. Strength to you and your family in your next chapter and never forget that you have left us all a little bit richer for having shared some time with you..

Thank you

Hi Everyone, It is with a heavy heart that i inform you all, that Andy has passed away this afternoon. As you knew from his last video he hasn't been well for some time, but this is still a big shock for it to happen so soon. Andy was a really good friend of mine and we travelled thousands of miles on our various bike and every one of those miles in his company was joyous. He was always available to help or give his expert advice to anyone and always with well meaning. He thought so much of The Old Guy In Shed and the comments from you all. Quite often he would talk of his channel as if he knew each and everyone one of you as a friend and was quite proud to have been part of that friendship. My condolences to his family and friends. Rest in peace Andy it was a privilege to be a friend.

Great dignity.

Thanks for all your content I have enjoyed every minute of it and take care

Friend on the other side of the world, I'll never say good bye just next time we will meet with a full heart. Thanks .

Thanks for the videos.

THANK YOU and god bless.

Sorry to hear this news. I haven't posted before but you inspired me to buy a Moto Morini 77 Strada few years ago. Still got it with a Moto Guzzi 1200 Sport I've had since 2007. Best Wishes

You know you are responsible for me buying an old Nuovo Falcone, your enthusiasm is very infectious. Enjoying my old bike immensely so big thanks to you and very sorry you won't be doing anymore. All the best, Robert.

Thank you for all the videos which you have done and god bless you.

First time for me to watch your channel, it’s not easy to except it’s time to turn the page ,, it’s not straightforward to do things with any health issues,I’ve several ,wish you luck in what ever you do

Well done mate take care.

Best wishes for you and your family...Ride on brother, see you on the road...

Bugger, thank you! You made me smile, but, not today!!

Thank you. Have enjoyed your story's very much. Started my own 'not so old guy in a shed' Moto Guzzi hobby too. Used to have 1 Targa 750 for over 15 years and since Covid and your inspiring example, have 4 to work on and drive as much as i can. Second one a V65SP that i turned into al lovely Cafe Racer, third a Quota that i use to go around Europe with and fourth a very cheap Nevada 750 that i turned into a rough Scrambler. This Scrambler and the V65 fit into the back of our old C8 minivan we use for family holidays, just got back from 12 days in the south of France were i drove the hell out of the Scrambler. It's great fun and a fantastic hobby. Wise people know all good things come to an and but it's always to early. Hope you will find peace and still be able to do a couple of tours. Kind Regards from Holland. In this video you can see how i unload the Scrambler from the minivan. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jmbNi62saN1-ac0 And another one driving it in the French Alps near Cunea Pass with our youngest son kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHawn5KYpreledU

Thanks for all the videos. It's been good! Thinking of you.

Your last video showed up today and here I am watching your first video and enjoyed it. I now have a few to work my way through.
