Description

c.1954 Moto Guzzi 500cc 'Prototype' Racing Motorcycle
Registration no. unregistered
Frame no. to be advised
Engine no. to be advised

This technologically interesting one-off features a prototype duplex-loop frame and cycle parts made by a mechanical engineer in Turin, Italy. Notable features include conventional swinging-arm rear suspension and an Earles-type front fork, both being departures from Moto Guzzi's usual practice of the time. The brakes are magnesium.

As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.
