Tom,
My 1969 Ambo. tag reads Dec. 68 meaning it was manufactured then but sold as
a 1969. At least this is what I have been told by Guzzi Pen Pals here.
Best, Bob Hawkes

I hadn't paid any attention to it before, but the tag gives the date of manufacture as July 1969. Does this technically make my bike a '69 or is it as the title says, a '70? Did/does Guzzi switch model years mid stream like the American car companies or does the calendar date prevail when determining model year? Tom '70(?)
