Hi,
November in Germany is typically too wet to take my daring out for a ride so I dedicated some time to upload
a couple of pictures of her taken during the 2015 season.

(The other ones from my Guzzi do not entirly belong to this forum but one or the other may like it, too)

Enjoy it.

Super nice survivor! You took some awesome detail pics. Could probably help on some restorations.

the GT has 75.000 km = 46.000 mls on it.
still running well, compressing ok, less than half a liter oil per 1000 km.
Clutch makes some noise with a rough grip. Weared out.
I will change it over the winter, most likely change the basket as well.

Apart from that there is some rattling when the engine idles, likely from a streched primary chain and weared rubber dampers in it.
Not untypical after such mileage´and rather a blemish (or a feature of old Kawas).
Wouldnt (yet) justify to open up the engine. I wont do it until the cylinder head or cylindersrequires overhauling (which might be years ahead still).
