Moto Guzzi Other description

You are looking at a 1972 Moto Guzzi Eldorado 850. This bike had a restoration done many years ago, although no longer perfect and not original, she still looks great. The bike has sat for some time and just recently was taking out. I did do some servicing this past week, just to get her running for some quick videos, including changing the engine oil, cleaning the carbs, cleaning the plugs and checking there gaps, cleaning the point, new plug wires, and a new battery. When I did this all the electronics, engine, clutch, brakes, starter and trans worked like they should. I am still going to classify her as a project and not a running bike, as she may need fine tuning before riding. There is a clear FL title. The engine numbers reads 053692, the frames VIN plate reads 053692. I do believe the frame was originally from a V700, please review pictures I took of the frames neck. This bike does come with a bolt on rear passenger seat, you can see pictures of it. Also this bike has a rare all chrome air box. I am going to let my slideshow pictures, auction pictures, and videos do the talking, but please if you have any questions or concerns, ask before bidding as I will be happy to answer them.  Please check out the 70 picture slideshow I provided in the listing, and also the two videos, one video of her driving down the street, and one of a quick walk around after starting cold . I am selling this one at a NO RESERVE starting at one dollar, so don't miss out.

This is a NO RESERVE auction. No warranties expressed or implied , and a as is where is sale. Feel free to have the motorcycle inspected if you like.  All sales are final, and there are no refunds or returns, and inspections are recommended. Full payment is do within 7 days after the auction has ended. Buyer must also contact me within 2 days after the auction has ended to set up a time for payment and pickup. Bike must be picked up in Tampa FL. She can sit here for as long as you need,  but the bike will still have to be paid for in full within the 7 days. Please watch the videos fully,  look at all of the pictures, including the slideshow and ask all questions before bidding as I will be happy to answer them.  Thank you and happy bidding!
