Within the Moto Guzzi collection, the 1000GT was positioned between the sporty 1000S and the great California road version. We would normally call it a roadster in today's world but, back in the 1980s and due to this specific positioning, this bike didn't manage to find its own niche. Its rarity and condition consequently make it a desirable model today. This is also valid in terms of riding qualities: the torque of the big 949cc twin engine that produces 65 hp, its five-speed gearbox and the gimballing remain relevant to date. This bike was sold new in Rome by the Pivetta dealership. It is in a very good original condition which seems to indicate that the low mileage of 2, 054 km on the odometer is genuine.
We are very proud to present this very moving collection. All the motorcycles reflect a man's passion for different brands and generations of two-wheelers. The ones that made him dream as a child in the 1940s and 1950s, as well as those he enjoyed riding, such as the BMWs and Guzzis. The original condition and low mileage of most of the motorcycles of the collection will certainly catch the attention of demanding collectors.
We inform buyers that the entire collection consists of motorcycles that were, for the most part, left unused for years in a private museum. They are therefore sold as they are and are to be restored and/ or recommissioned.
We advise all potential buyers to check the file of each motorcycle to obtain all information regarding the registration process in their countries.
Auction estimate: €4 000 / 5 000 - Without reserve price
