Moto Guzzi V8 under the skirt - quick service and engine start, with Giacomo Agostini as support :-)

Moto Guzzi Ottocilindri (1952) ... he was a little reluctant to come back to life, but the mechanics were still successful in persuading ... Pino Todero, Antonio Frigerio and Giuseppe Ioannoni. Giacomo Agostini is the moral support :-)

One thing I do kind of hate with people that think the fatter the rear tire is the better it looks . There are some people think that it helps and it dont . To me a fat tire only means that a person cant ride a bike with out training wheels . A friend of mine bought a Kawasaki KH400 with stock 3.50 tire on the back . He put 4.10 tire on the back . I pretty much told him WHY . The 3.50 tire would be better there would be some less pattern but that is good in a way on the curves . It give the bike a little bit of drift on the rear and not grab some much . A better thing is to have vary good adjustable shocks would make all the difference in the world . Much much more than bigger tire on the back . I think he put a wider tire on the back like he only going to do is a straight line racing . But not worth a crap on the turns . For those guys that has a crotch rocket . You do realize that these bike are not race ready and for street use right . I have seen a lot of steer bump just because of back tires and bad factory shocks and ill prep bikes . If you people look everything on these bikes is prepped for racing this includes skinny tires . It's about speed and agility both .

Hi Jeff ... thank you very much for your comment.

[@frankbeaton4776]

Leaving out the purely visual aspects of rear tyre choice, why then do the quickest turning bikes on the planet use large section rear tyres?

[@GuidoBatt]

@@frankbeaton4776 Well, that's not the whole story. A fatter tire will hold a steeper angle, as the base that touches the ground is wider, but a leaner one will turn quicker because of less gyroscopic inertia (say, maneuverability vs. stability: it depends on the type of road you're running on).

The master of aluminium welding was Ernie Earles, the inventor of the Earles fork as used on 1960s BMWs. He could weld aluminium using oxy-acetylene torches. There's a surviving example of one of his bikes, an aluminium-framed race machine with Earles forks, rear fork, tanks, etc, all made by Earles.
