MOTO GUZZI Florida V35/65 – Cafe Racer – PEPERONCINO
I look at the bike just as a suitable material, like a sculptor chooses the right clay. And the clay/material is the engine for me … the heart. And one such true heart, for me, is 2 V Moto Guzzi. The bike was in a very good and preserved condition until I almost felt sorry for it, but that’s just it – if something new has to come, the old has to (at least partially) disappear. Well, how much my little transformation has succeeded, that I would leave up to you. I try and I want to continue to do that every and each motorcycle from my workshop would be unique and that before I begin rebuilding, the new bike in my workshop has to have its name from the beginning! And the name for this beautiful bike is PEPERONCINO. And from the name then unfolds the whole rebuilding … colour, design, to the presentation itself.
