Guzzi SP1000 Monica
This ’79 SP1000 Guzzi was delivered to us in the worst condition we had ever seen. And that was our first Guzzi. Could it be even worse?
We completely re-built this dead bike and brought her back to life under the Italian name of “Monica”.
We assume you don’t need us to enlighten you on the reason why we picked an Itlain girl name for that one…
