NLM
....never again, I bought a mark1 lemon this year from NLM and the bike was so badly prepped, the loose head stock bearings and brake failure almost caused a major spill. The paint job smudged its way off as well. The bike was returned. Not a good experience.

Very nice. 
Very nice.
And a bit of an unsung hero of the Guzzi range.

To be fair it sounds like they were trying to recreate the Guzzi experience as if you were buying it new in the 70s..

T3 was the first Guzzi I bought in the early 80s, took me to the south of France and I can remember the panic when travelling round the Paris Peripherique when the oil pessure kept dropping to zero. Was in the 30s though and the traffic was crawling.
Saw this on a classic run on Saturday.
250 single, I like the detail on the tyre pump

this is pretty much how I bought my le mans, pictures make it look far better than real life, and don't show the wiring which was horrendous, with much that didn't work!
the dash is how I bought it, only the neutral lamp worked!
anyhow I widened the bars slightly and fully rewired it using modern switchgear, blade fuses, and relays for both the ignition switch and main and low beam, I also replaced the throttle cables and the carb springs for lighter ones, the metal brake line was replaced with kunifer, it came without indicators and although I liked the look, I decided to fit some small ones, mirrors are of some 80's honda that I had lyng around !
I added the mark 1 fairing that I got from a seller in Germany, it was cheaper than the UK supplied ones and decent quality, I painted it Ford rosso red, but it's not an exact match!
