I don’t “like” the bike, I absolutely love the bike. Beautiful work and you kept the soul of a Guzzi untouched (maybe just retouched). Love guzzi, own a Guzzi and really enjoyed your work on this LeMans! Congrats.
Beautiful job. And good man for not cutting off the end of the top tubes, and respecting Lino Tonti's genius. So many ignorant custom builders think they know better and vandalise that frame.
Oh my god, that is the most beautiful bike I have ever seen. This is truly a work of art. Very very very well done. If I were you I'd use this bike as a launching platform for your own motorcycle design business.
That bike is gorgeous and sounds amazing. Well done on the restoration, Dan. I wonder if he would be willing to do a proper write-up on the project, or possibly an in-depth video...detail everything that he did and the costs, talk about any issues that arose and how he overcame them?
Dan, lovely job and THANK YOU for not chopping the ends off the top frame tubes, an all too common act of vandalism by those who think they know better than Maestro Tonti.
I'm 58 and remember when the Mk.II arrived in the world; loved the look of it, although I could never afford one. Good to see that torque flex still trying to roll it onto its back when you rev it at a standstill.
Ha ha! Excellent! Bravo! Bravissimo! Somebody understands Moto Guzzi and the madness that is the Lemon. Every owner has the perfect right to alter and adapt their machine as they see fit.... But the current trend among recent converts (no pun intended) to the Guzzi legend is to make something Chi-Chi and somehow fake and glitzy. This, on the other hand, is a proper MkII Lemon. Mean, Low, slightly bad-tempered. No sodding about with wrapped pipes and all that crap. This video was a delight to watch and for the first time one of these videos has made me jealous and wish to have my youth back. What a fine motorcycle. Enjoy riding it! It has put a smile on my face.
Thank you Dan for sharing your bike. It's beautiful. I really enjoy the paint job that you did on the tank and the fairing. It really brings out the nice curves of the bike. Well done!
Just bought a 1973 V7 Wilcox custom. Haven’t got it yet, being shipped to me Your bike is absolutely stunning. Very well done, NOT a half baked butcher job, this is professionally built killer machine LOL, the dude wanted to make a trike out of the V7? This is when brutal murder should legal and rewarded with a medal. You can't do this to a Guzzi.
What a glorious bike that is and what a fabulous soundtrack of pure Italian mechanical opera. Dan - well done and thanks for a great review, cheers, Phil.
Stunner. Lovely paint. Big Guzzi fan here. People don't know what they are missing riding one of the older pre 95 big twin Guzzis, when they still used a heavy flywheel. Completely different to a modern twin especially a Ducati.
Beautiful Guzzi! I loved how passionate Dan is about his machine! I really love these Regular's videos. Keep 'em coming! Cheers from another Guzzi rider in Austin, Texas USA!
He really knows to provoke the great guzzi sound of closing the throttle!! :) Superb sound! Guzzis is so underrated these days. Great work and a really cool ride Dan.
I really like that the frame ends were not cut off, as a lot of people do to "make it look sporty". It looks lower and more stretched this way, and quite uniqe, as it is not just copying the popular builds. Just a few details could be optimized, like the hanging exhaust, the sagging carbs or the cheap looking plastic indicators.
Nice bike. Just wonder why you de linked the brakes. I have a Lemans since 40 years and would love to have all my bikes with the integral brake system. Once you get used to it, can’t live without it.
He really captured the Italian heritage of himself and the bike in this build. The bike screams passion Bravo!
Best bike I've seen on BSMC. Properly sorted, not butchered, functional and great looking! Love it!
Agree 😃
Agreed. I own a Moto Guzzi Le Mans MKII 850 as well, which i am going to make pretty again using this build as an example.
One of the best bike build bike i've ever seen. Properly build, fresh and original. And that sound, is one of the best V engine motorcycle sound.
Mi è venuta la pelle d'oca, quando ho sentito il rumore di scarico ,l'ho dovuto riascoltare a volume alto!
Italian bike, Italian rider from Italy. MORE ITALY!!!
No thanks, I'm good.
What a stunning machine! The Moto Guzzi sound is just the best sound a bike can have. It increases testosterone.
From the US, have to say the mix of customs rolling into the Shed is amazing. Good Stuff!
For me, Moto Guzzi is the manifacturer with the best bike designs and this one is just one more proof of it. You've done a great job, man!
I don’t “like” the bike, I absolutely love the bike. Beautiful work and you kept the soul of a Guzzi untouched (maybe just retouched). Love guzzi, own a Guzzi and really enjoyed your work on this LeMans! Congrats.
I do like the bike but I think you are so full of joy and pride in your Italian bike! You make me feel happy!
That Italian growl, nothing like it! Incredible work of art, nice job!
Well done for saving it from becoming a trike, I love how offended you were by that prospect:) A bike to be very proud of indeed.
What a beautiful Le Mans! Congratulations for the good job you've done!

Stunning... All the little details really add up with this build. I miss my Guzzi :(
I applaud! You made a canonical, classic café racer! Despite or cast wheels. Everything on this bike are how it should be on a café racer
As Italian, i'm proud of this guy, and of his bike too. These polished heads, wow!

Absolutely amazing machine and that sound was just perfect.
A beautiful bike and a lovely exhaust note. Done with style. Congratulations.
Like the bike?! I fall in love with them!!!!! It's perfect! Congrats bro!
Thank you Dan for sharing your bike. It's beautiful. I really enjoy the paint job that you did on the tank and the fairing. It really brings out the nice curves of the bike. Well done!
Mammma Miiiiia! That is definitely in the top 3 of the reg rides featured so far.
My first bike was a 1980s Moto Guzzi V50. This makes me want to do a similar build so bad!!! 👌🏻😍
Just bought a 1973 V7 Wilcox custom. Haven’t got it yet, being shipped to me
Your bike is absolutely stunning. Very well done, NOT a half baked butcher job, this is professionally built killer machine
LOL, the dude wanted to make a trike out of the V7? This is when brutal murder should legal and rewarded with a medal. You can't do this to a Guzzi.
absolutely beautiful machine & it sounds even better.
I'm a V7 stone owner and it's a head turner avery time I ride it
As a 3 guzzi owner, love his build. great work, sure would like to be behind hearing it "wined" out a bit! Nice job!!!
Man. That thing sounds great. Best sounding Moto Guzzi EVER! Love the paint Scheme too.
This brought me back to my years in Italy, in the 1980's; I had one of these Le Mans...
This is superb, you kept the spirit and add your soul. Bravo 👌
What a glorious bike that is and what a fabulous soundtrack of pure Italian mechanical opera. Dan - well done and thanks for a great review, cheers, Phil.
To add to the chorus of comments, beautiful. I’m in awe of this bike
That bike was perfect and the sound cannot be duplicated.
Stunner. Lovely paint. Big Guzzi fan here. People don't know what they are missing riding one of the older pre 95 big twin Guzzis, when they still used a heavy flywheel. Completely different to a modern twin especially a Ducati.
Beautiful bike, I appreciate your passion for this classic.
Beautiful bike and sound !!! The real definition of Italian café racer ;)) FORZA ITALIA !!!
Beautiful Guzzi! I loved how passionate Dan is about his machine! I really love these Regular's videos. Keep 'em coming! Cheers from another Guzzi rider in Austin, Texas USA!
Portland, Oregon. '76 v1000 i convert.
He really knows to provoke the great guzzi sound of closing the throttle!! :) Superb sound! Guzzis is so underrated these days. Great work and a really cool ride Dan.
What a great looking bike! Congratulations to you on a super job.

I have no words for how amazing that bike is
Everything on the bike matches very nice.welldone my friend

Just had to sell my Guzzi, you did a wonderful job sir on yours.
Wow! That’s a very fine bike with lots of Italian style. Well done👍
Great bike. Just love the Le mans, they are one of the best looking bikes. Thanks for sharing . Cheers
Always liked the Moto Guzzi. Yours is a real beauty! Love the Cafe look.
The best custom cafe racer on earth, period.
Now that is an outstanding bike. Bravissimo!
Lovely bike. I’d be proud of that if I’d built it.
Ride safely.
Nice bike.. I could listen to this man all day..
This is the finest guzzi i have ever seen! Holy mother of god- i'm totally in love.
I knew if I hung around long enough a beautiful LM would turn up. Bella Bella Bella.
Perfect - not over done. I want to buy it!
Bellissimo. Saw you the other day, passed me going in a different direction, first thing I noticed was the noise...………………………….beautiful bike.
Good job man, this is a great looking and sounding bike
Nicely done Dan!
Awesome bike, I love motor guzzi, sounded brilliant as well! ❤

That sound: she really barks! Beautiful machine.
so gorgeous, wish i had the skills to create something like that
Italian style and finesse! Beautiful machine! Bravo!
It looks great but my God the sound! Well done!

Guzzi is in a class all by itself.
Live the sound. That's real thunderstruck.
Who could put a 👎
This is awesome and it is great to see it being used this way
looks and sounds awesome,nice work mate
Glorious
Wow that is mad. A true work of art I tell you.
Beautiful build! Safe riding
Good job Dan, beautiful bike.

That's gorgeous, I love it!! Well done on an awesome build! :)
Fantastic Young Man The sound.WOW.
Really want to move out there from the states just to be apart of y'alls club. I just bought a Triumph and i'm hooked
Impressive bike with a great sound.
Mine sounds like that. I made up a set of 1 5/8” baffles for the ‘silencers’
Spettacolare.. semplicemente spettacolare! ( il suono degli scarichi e' musica) W Moto Guzzi
A genuine work of art. So jealous.
Incredible sound
Nice bike. Just wonder why you de linked the brakes. I have a Lemans since 40 years and would love to have all my bikes with the integral brake system. Once you get used to it, can’t live without it.
Great looking bike!!
What a piece of art!
Stunning. A work of art.
Beautiful rebuild!
