Title: Moto Guzzi Falcone (original)
Post by: Uncle_Ernie on April 21, 2008, 05:44:58 AM

I would like to find information on what is known in the 'States as the "Bacon Slicer" (what the flywheel looks like); 1950 through 1967?
I'm curious about what it would be like to live with, How maintenance is, ride quality, etc.
Thanks

I recently purchased the 250 Airone version and am very much enjoying it.

I have a number of friends who ride their Airones in the US Moto Giro event and I have had to work hard to keep up with them while competing on my 1966 Ducati 250.
