Not an Alazzurra.   Footpegs and exhaust hangers  are old style p500.

But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Yeah, well.. I have a few laying around of both...   :-[

Pantah SL and XL models had the hoop weld to the frame for the exhaust and rear pegs.  Pantah TL and Alazzurra (same frame) had two 12mm bolts on the frame to which the rear and front pegs and exhaust hung from.

Gotcha, I've seen a few Alazzurra cafe builds so I may just have had that in my head, the Pantah was probably the more popular model.  Can you pick these (Alazzurra or Pantah) up pretty cheap?  They look like such a great starting point.

You can find running, good shape Allys for around 2000-2500.. They always start around 3000-4000, but never sell that high.  The most expensive one I've seen sold was 4200 2 years ago and it was a balls-out custom job:  (well, for an Alazzurra)



You can find basket cases now and then for around 1000-2000 but they get bought up quickly for parting out.  :-/

What's this, you ask?
A CAD model of a 1972 MV Agusta GP500 triple.
Why on earth do that, you ask?
So you can make some replicas.

Just read an article about this bike in motorcycle classics. Not sure it is worth close to 200K but sexxy in so many ways:
