It's a Moto Guzzi V1000S 1989. Similar to the earlier V7 S3.

How about this one? It looks so impressive, even from this angle! An easy one this time!

As i was told:close but no cigar! ;)
It is  Yamaha, and a Seca. Not 650.
I think it was made only one year.
Had a major factory miscalculation.

900 that is! I loved it also, but would wobble if accelerated from 100 ml/h up.
Was told was a frame problem and they discontinued making them.
Beautiful bike , for those days and even for now.

Dunno? They should have turned it into a Lawn Mower looking at the length of that grass though  ;)


Interesting thread! Keep up the good work Image

Thanks!! As for cutting the grass, they were using the sickle or even scythe those days... :alas:
Just about the size of a lawnmower today, though...push mower, not a riding one  :enjoying:

One last for the day: I guess there is no need for mirrors if you ride one of those...
