" I dared to dream "
My goal was to ride with my old riding partner.
( b4 my RTA in 2003 )
To Mandello Del Lario to the moto guzzi factory (on a Guzzi if possible) , sadly for me the Convert didn't work with my disabilities.
And with a very short time to go IE 16/07/17.
I hastily bought this SP3 as in post one on this thread - above.

Here I am 06/09/17 at the Guzzi factory...
With my mate & his Lemon MK V ( Pictures 2 & 3
)
Picture 1 is from 2003..
Phil still had his Lemon MK V & mesen on another SP3 having sold my original one when all the medical bods said I would never have any right shoulder use, no left wrist use & both lower limbs smashed to bits, but dispite very limited lift or power in my shoulder & total wrist fusion in my left wrist & now wearing a wrist splint on my right hand m wrist + lots of non working parts. So no driving let alone ever ride again..
I somehow managed to freshen this bike up ( after doing the Convert )
& ride it from Le Havre to Mulhouse 450 + miles day one, into Switzerland & 4 mountain passes day two.
then ride to the factory on day 3...
It would be so much easier to just give in & do Feck all, but I think that would be the end if me.....
Hopefully I will update this thread with some factory visit piccies.
During the 3 day open house event to celebrate the V7 50th year.
As I take then in the next 3 days...
