  • Would love to see spoked wheels on that. But mostly would love to be part of the Guzzi Gang.

    Went for a couple hours on the stupid little bike, something like an hour solid on green lanes, nothing too technical, same old trails between Wroughton and Avebury via Broad Hinton. Be nice if the entire Ridgeway was open, but still spoiled for choice with alternatives. Will take some grabs from the gopro once it transfer.

    Was nice to have a bitter shandy break before retracing the route.

    Edit: btw funny to think my piece of shit has the same Hagons as your V50

  • This won’t get wire wheels. Way too troublesome. If I really wanted that I’d be better off with a different model. I’ll paint the wheels black though and hope it helps.
    I’m going to ride it to the beach tomorrow and see if I can learn myself to slide without too much injury. Probably not, but hopefully fun.

  • I painted the wheels on my v50 I’ll post a picture tomorrow .

    To fit wire wheels you would have to change the final drive it’s fairly unique to the v50 so Nevada etc ones won’t fit

  • As you can see it’s a bit dirty at the back of the garage......
    I polished the edges of the spokes, sprayed the wheels then wiped the paint off the edges with a rag and thinners.
    It’s actually a V50 Monza front wheel. The discs are 10mm further out to help with the spacing on the yokes.(GSX-R yokes, CBR600 forks, Suzuki calliper)
