A Brief

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

What car brand or motorcycle should I cover next?

[@tomdanley7358]

McLaren!!

[@georgejosephs8611]

Hmmm trying to think of something obscure and challenging...

[@vayabroder729]

Did you ever cover Peugeot and how they started with bicycles?

[@Frapegomodels66]

NSU

[@annamardi9626]

How about.... Isetta?

[@garmit61]

Once you've been Guzzi'd You're hooked. Still have my 1985 le mans 1000. Slow and ponderous by modern sportsbike standards, but beautiful and handles superbly on scarily thin tyres.

Now you have hit a nerve with me, not a bad nerve, but a wonderful nerve. I've had 3 Guzzis and taken a team to Bonneville several years when we set a handful of records. I had a '71 Ambassador Police bike, a 2001 Jackal, and a 2002 Stone Metal sidecar rig. I also ran the Moto Guzzi Correspondence List, put on several rallies, and my "Sheldon's EMU" (European Motorcycle Universe) has a huge Moto Guzzi section. The Stone Metal was the love of my life until I was forced to sell it in 2010 to cover medical bills. I put a Chinese Police Sidecar on it and then had the sidecar highly modified. With that red and chrome gas tank, red stripe and red snap-on tonneau on the sidecar it was quite the rig and took first place at several shows. It is probably the most loved of all my 50+ bikes over the years, and I dearly miss it. The last I heard, it was wandering around the Chicago area.

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Wow! Bonneville?! How awesome.

[@tomposti6361]

This was very good for a quick historical overview. As far as I can tell as a life long Guzzi Enthusiast, no factual mistakes were made. You are a GoodBlonde

[@tomdanley7358]

Happy you are back! Enjoyed the history of Moto Guzzi and it's founders

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

HAPPY to be back

[@VA3DSO]

As always, awesome video with a pile of knowledge. Thanks so much for doing these videos!

[@davidrohde838]

As always great video loaded with information. Beautiful bike! Damm nice looking bar top too!

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Thank you, the guy that did the bar top is a real GEM! LOL

[@georgejosephs8611]

Enjoyed the video! I've not really been familiar with Moto Guzzi till now.

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Glad to get you better aquainted :)

[@robertpierce1981]

Very nice history video. Thanks from the seat of Norge

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@geirarnesen6531]

Well done girl, excellent research and presentation 👏👌👍

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Thank you so much 🙂

[@sjoukedijkstra7110]

V11 owner here, also have owned an LeMans III and a V50 Monza. I always describe Moto Guzzi's as it would be the result of BMW, Ducati and Harley Davidson having a threesome. The Driveshaft and layout of a BMW Boxer, the aircooled pushrod V-twin like a Harley and the spicy character of an Italian Ducati. My V11 is assembly of metal parts that appears to have a soul. Love the thing.

[@patrickdeleon3766]

Awesome, love these videos 👍👍♥️

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Thanks!

[@TimothySchenke]

Enjoyed it and now a subscriber :)

[@darrinslack1269]

what you missed was the designer of the V twin Lambretta that the v twin moto guzzi near copies ended up at moto guzzi he also designed the Gilera Saturno

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

True! :)

[@CthulhuInc]

thanks for the video!

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Pleasure was mine!

[@albertopadovani4237]

Nice video, even if there are a few errors, for example, the "G.P." it was used until 15 March 1921, not until 1924, but 1921 when the Anonymous Company Moto Guzzi was born, the Prototype 'G.P.' was built in 1919, in the Giorgio Ripamonti Mechanical Workshop...

[@jessbillings4840]

Loved it!

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Glad you liked it!

[@DustyVisorMotorcycles]

You did a good job of that Guzzi history, Didn't know about the "GP" logo. Wish they had continued developing race bikes........MGS-01 anyone? Thanks! 😎

[@kennytuns8078]

Those 50s Moto Guzzi racers were awesome

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

YESS. totally.

[@BradGuerner]

Love the Moto Guzzi Le Mans

[@kalliashook4858]

Dang that bar looks nice!!!❤❤

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

It dooo don't it?

[@thomasposton2457]

Congratulations on getting it open and going

[@eagle1de227]

I owned a Guzzi myself. And the saying goes that a purchase of a Guzzi always goes along with that of a BIG toolbox...

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

LOL

[@scottcalhoun5524]

Maybe way back in the day, not true anymore.

[@mattshepp9219]

THose early Moto Guzzi photos are so cool

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Totally agree

[@vayabroder729]

Good luck on the new business!

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

[@jackfrederick874]

Great video. Perhaps offer the Italian pronunciation for the originalists-- Moto Gootzie

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Yep! :) Been pronouncing it Guzzi since I was a kid

[@danselman4099]

BSA History please.

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Great rec! Will do!

[@glenmclendon9209]

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Maybe a Guzzi will be in the future?

[@christopherdopp8307]

Pronounced Gut-zi. Thanks for the history

[@scottcalhoun5524]

She orders pizza by saying one large peeza please.

[@gaspo69]

Che Bella! (and the blonde's not bad, either)

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

She a little bad

[@lightning15054]

Compare flathead to overhead valve engines. Why did Chrysler stick with a flathead long after GM was building overhead valve engines?

[@robertphillips4461]

Che buona!

[@chadfixestheworldbutmainly8499]

[@356cruzer4]

You need to pronounce Guzzi properly

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Nah, I've been pronouncing it the same since was a kid. Same with Porsche :) Hate to change my ways just to ward off internet trolls

[@caramelypoops]

not watching any channel based on a fake hair colour.....

[@BadBlonde-CarHistory]

Ohhh but it looks like you already did :)

[@caramelypoops]
