Moto Guzzi's long-running, 90-degree, v-twin engine layout was retained for a new range of Lino Tonti-designed middleweights planned during the 1970s. The v-twin Guzzi in scaled-down form debuted as the V35/V50 in 1976, though deliveries were limited until the Innocenti car factory - like Guzzi, owned by Alesandro De Tomaso - had been re-equipped for motorcycle production. Lightweight and compact, characteristics that endeared it to smaller riders, Guzzi's little v-twins were economical, well-engineered, and handled superbly; top speeds were 90mph-plus (V35) and 100mph-plus (V50).
Offered from a private collection in Belgium, this Moto Guzzi V35 currently displays a total of 24,500 kilometres (approximately 15,200 miles) on the odometer and has belonged to the private vendor for the last couple of years. The machine is offered with Belgian registration papers and an owner's manual.
