all these great looking Moto Guzzi bikes. seriously nice conversions. but when i was looking at bikes, all of the new ones look soooooo heavy.

Definitely not a 900.

Look at the clutch.

That's a Paso 750 engine (or early Elefant 750)

Dry clutch with rhs clutch slave, and there is no way in hell someone got 900cc (or close to it) out of the 750's geometry.  Crank is too small and no more room on the deck to bore the cylinders. I think the biggest overbore is 780cc, which was a DP/Ferracci P/C kit.

I bet this was originally a 750SS with the wet clutch and they blew the engine or wanted a dry clutch.  Easier to buy a used Paso 750 engine off ebay (or marktplaats.nl) and bolt it right up than modify the crank to accept a 900 clutch.

Sexy.

Not a 900.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I'd love to see more angles of the black Super Sport above.  I'd like to see the side view and also see what kind of headlight is on there.  Awesome looking tail section.  What kind of swing arm is that?
